Hello All
Does anyone know if the LC2 is compatible with LED light bulbs?
I want to replace my lights with bayonet LED bulbs over time but dont know if they will work.
Thank you

LC2 are NOT compatible with LED..
I have tried, and they actually work when the lamp is on, when you turn it off, the LED bulp is blinking :)

Hi,
I just bought a Phillips GU10 led lamp and it works fine with the LC2. The problem I found is that the bulb produces a humming sound specially when dimming at level 5.
Can you here such noise with your bulb? If not, can you please provide the exact brand and reference model?
Good evening alls,
I've received today an A9 Keyring which happened to be delivered with an LC2. So I started to play with it

I have oldfashioned lightbulbs on my LC2’s, so I can’t give you any 100% advice.
But you probably can’t run LEDs as Weebys wrote.
As for the use for turning off/on anything else - I’d not try that.
For that purpose you’d better use some kind of time switch - something that you can get for little money.

Yes. That's what I experienced myself but there's also posts saying otherwise:

BeoHut:Hi, I use my LC2's with dimmable LED-lights 7w-->40W from Megaman. The bulbs work perfect with Lightmode 1 to 9. A constant light is the result. I'm vert happy with this solution: old & new technology .

And also one more recent post about a member successfully driving and dimming an Ikea garland but i can't find it now.
So maybe there was some change in bulb technology or any new trick/hack which can make them work without spending 40w when you can use 6!
As for the time switch, it won't work as hour of use are never the same.
Ok, thanks - maybe I’ll try one out with a LC2 here.....I just fear that they will be humming.
As for turning off/on the device.....give it a try - and we’ll see ;-)
