PO,
I should go back to school and take a reading lesson or two...
Anyway, I just tested my LED dimmer setup. You are right, it did not appear to dim as far as what my very dim memory of dimming incandescents did. It is a very dim memory because I tried the dimmable CFLs - which was an absolute flicking and humming misery. I ended up never dimming those dumb bulbs. In fact, I consider myself a dim bulb for buying them. I think I am getting off topic.
All my LEDs are a year or less old so maybe they learned something in the three years since your lot was made. Other then not dimming to a sensual level with a very special someone I have had no problems. The light is good, the dimming is smooth, and my KillOWatt meter reads a real savings. By the way, I don't give a rats behind about green. I like the color but I can't stand the sanctimonious turds that appropriated it. They are about as green as their personal jets...
As far as Kalefornea, what can I say. Our bureaucrats force oddball rate structures to try to get everyone to save energy. They refuse to allow power generation to be developed in our bucolic state so we pull it from Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington - but also from smoking behemoths in Mexico. Then we tax it. So our feeble minded politicians pretend our power don't stink. And the green is my money flowing to them. Why am I still here. I view it like an investment - you know 'Blood in the Streets'. The next economic downturn will drive this state to its knees...
