Dimmable bulb: which dimmer should you plan for?

This dimmable bulb requires an LED-compatible dimmer, which is not included. Connected to a simple on-off switch, it turns on and off normally.

The dimmer lets you adjust the brightness of the ceiling light or pendant light to suit the moment. You keep full light for cooking or entertaining, and you lower it in the evening.

Each box contains 1 bulb. For maintenance, switch it off and wait for it to cool down. Then wipe it with a dry, lint-free cloth, without any chemical product.
