With the disappearance of incandescent and halogen bulbs due to their poor energy efficiency, we're being encouraged to replace the bulbs in our lamps with equivalent LED bulbs. But if you're used to dimming your lights with a dimmer switch, you've probably noticed that your existing dimmer often doesn't work well with these new bulbs. Why is this, and how can we fix it?
