I have replaced all of my in-ceiling can lights with these Cree LR6 LEDs.
http://www.creelighting.com/LR6.htm
So far, I am quite happy with them. Light quaility is much better than CFL, almost indistinguishable from incandesent. I installed the "warmer" of the two color temperatures that Cree offers. The lights dim down to a 20-30% level with my Lightolier dimmers before turning off.

I wonder when or IF we'll ever get this before the laws prevent us from owning incandescent bulbs.Joe (zimmer62)

Something happened to the smarthome switch I have mine hooked up to, and all but two of my bulbs burned out, and the switch will not turn off. I'm not sure of the two events are related, but I suspect they might be.
Looking to replace them with dimable cfls or LED's but they MUST time down to 0 without that abrupt last 10% off at once.
The reason is when I start a movie they fade off over the course of a minute, and when the movie is over they turn on very slowly. If they came on 10% instead of 0%,1%,2% etc.... it would be a noticeable shock, I want it to be so gradual you don't see it happening.Joe (zimmer62)
