  • LED troffers

    Does anyone know of any LED troffers that use regular dimmers? All I can find is fixtures that require 0-10V dimmers.

    Ask your electrician if you have one for this job, but short answer, no. Dimmers are so specific these days I stay out of it anymore unless it's really basic lighting.

      All the troffers I see are 0-10V dimmed. If you would be allowed to do this, there are LED retrofit tubes for a fluorescent fixture that can be dimmed with a C/L dimmer.

        Thanks Steve. That's the next thing I'm going to look into. We will be doing a couple of jobs where we can retrofit existing fixtures with LED bulbs but we also need to put up additional fixtures. Seems silly to put up obsolete fluorescent fixtures just so I can put retrofit LED bulbs in them.

        I did locate a work-around, I'm doing some research on it:
