When dimming LED lights with an LED dimmer, why do the LED lights at the end of a string of lights go off when LED lights at the beginning of a string of lights go dim but stay lit?
This application is in a kitchen. The LED dimmers were a Lutron Diva C.L Single-Pole/3-Way CFL/LED Dimmer White purchased at Menards. The LED bulbs were Exclusive EcoSmart 60-Watt Equivalent A19 Non-Dimmable LED Light Bulb Daylight (4-Pack)Model# B7A19A60WUL34 purchased at Home Depot. One dimmer controlled 4 bulbs from one location. When dimmed, the 2 bulbs in the string of lights closest to the dimmer did dim to a minimum but the 2 bulbs in the string of lights farthest from the dimmer shut off completely. The other dimmer controlled 8 bulbs from one location. When dimmed, the 6 bulbs in the string of lights closest to the dimmer did dim to a minimum but the 2 bulbs in the string of lights farthest from the dimmer shut off completely. All of the bulbs used were exactly the same. Perhaps the bulbs were not compatible with the dimmers. Originally I purchased the dimmers at Menards closer to my office. I installed the dimmers using the existing LED bulbs, not knowing they were the kind that would not dim. I then purchased the LED dimmable bulbs from Home Depot closer to home.
