(LED-LINEAR-UNDERCABINET)Yes, LED dimmers are specifically designed to handle the low wattage and electronic drivers used in LED lighting. Standard incandescent dimmers control power through resistive loads, which can cause LEDs to flicker, buzz, or fail to dim properly. A 120V LED-compatible dimmer uses a different control curve and circuitry (often trailing-edge or ELV type) to provide smooth, stable dimming across the LED’s full brightness range. Always check that both the LED fixture and dimmer are rated as compatible for best performance.
