Trouble-Shooting Flickering Bulbs on Dimming Circuits

Micro-Brite cold cathode fluorescent light bulbs are designed to dim on standard dimmers and most applications do not require any adjustments. However, it is important to remember that Micro-Brite bulbs use different technology to dim than incandescent; therefore, voltage setting adjustments may be necessary to maximize the dimming performance of the Micro-Brite bulbs. For correct installation, follow these simple steps:

First, install all of your new Litetronics Micro-Brite light bulbs. Once installed, run the voltage all of the way up; then, slowly turn down the voltage until the lamps just begin to flicker. From this threshold, raise the voltage about 3 volts. This is your new low voltage setting.
