Why do LED downlights flicker?

LED downlights flicker for several reasons. One of the main reasons a downlight may flicker is due to dimmer compatibility. Using older dimmers with LED downlights can cause flickering. Another reason LED downlights flicker is from loose connections. When the socket is not properly contacting the bulb, the LED downlight may potentially flicker.

Other reasons for flickering include:

  • The Ripple Effect: This is an occurrence that happens when energy suppliers reduce the amount of energy provided to certain areas.
  • Dirty Sockets
  • Loose Electrical Wiring
  • Overloaded circuits

Can LED downlights be dimmed?

Yes, LED downlights can be dimmed. However, not all LED downlights are dimmable. To ensure that your lights are dimmable, check the packaging to see if the fixture is dimmable.

Also, check if the dimmer LED is compatible with the new fixture. If the dimmer is old and the fixture is new, it may create a flicker for the downlight.
