Can these dimmable using a PWM dimmer?

Yes Pulse width Modulation should work at the worst you could add a 100 Uf in parallel.Do not exeded 12 Volts ,higher voltage use a lot more current than 1 Amp @ 14 volts use 5 Amps for no increase in light. regards Yvon

I know that Marco has already answered the question so you are good to go. The issue with LED dimming is the power module that steps down the AC 120 AC voltage, not typically the LED. PWM stands for pulse with modulation which dims the LED by lighting the LED at various duty cycle percentages instead of changing the voltage comming out of the dimmer like incandescent dimmers. Know that you can call LEDwholesalers directly and they are very helpful. I have gone to their location in Hayward, CA and they powered up several items so that I could compare the quality of the different LED strips. They are actually excited about what they sell! - Brad I know that Marco has already answered the question so you are good to go.

Yes they are dimmable but I doubt you will need to they have a great low yellowish light to them.

Yes, they can. The LEDs operate at a lower temperature than incandescent or halogen. I also use mine with LED-compatible dimmer switches so I can adjust heat and light level.

They can be used with either a regular dimmer or with a standard light switch. In other words, you can use them just like a regular light bulb. I'm using mine on a regular on/off switch.

No. You must use a decent dimmer that's led capable. The old dimmers are hard on the electronics in the led

I'm not sure if they are dimmable. I just have them plugged in. They work great, really easy to use.

Probably not. In my experience, when you try to use a standard dimmer on "dimmable" LED lights, it does not work. The wattage is different. Usually if it is a group of lights they cannot all be LED; you have to put one or two incandescent lights in the circuit so the dimmer works.Hope this helps.

As far as I can tell, they are not dimmable. I do not have a dimmable switch, but on the box it is not mentioned that they are dimmable.

I'd think so. I can't imagine why not. I think the only issue with the dimmer would be the bulbs. LEDs for example can be very finicky about the dimmers.

I did not test them that mode, but I do not see why they could not be dimmable..

I have never tried these with a dimmer but I do know that LEDs don't work with Dimmers

I installed them using a standard on/off switch on my kitchen. I haven't install a dimmer but it seems to me that a standard on/off switch with dimmer should work.

Not sure if it can be dimmed. I bought a pack of 10 Watt and a pack of 20 Watt for different uses in my landscaping. I can only guess that if these are used in a rheostat type switch, then they can be dimmed, but I am no expert and haven't tried it.

Yes. A universal remote will work. The bulbs are incandescent ( small thread, like night light bulbs) so yes, they are dimmable

They are not made to be dimmable. They do dim but then burn out as a result of multiple dimming events.

Should be able to use with current switch. I didn't use any "special" dimmer switch, and they have worked just fine. NOTE: I have had a larger percentage of these bulbs burn out too fast, maybe 10%.

I doubt so. The unit is pretty much identical to any AC-DC converter you might find for any other electronic device, and they are built to expect a constant supply of power. The input specs on the unit also indicate it's input range would not accomidate a dimmer from what I can see. Your best bet from what I can see would be to purchase one of the PWM dimmer packages available if you would like to dim the lights off of this unit.
