    Any multi-color bulbs which can be used with wall-dimmers?

    The answer is probably no, but I'll ask anyway..

    I have multiple old z-wave dimmers (GE Jasco) in the house (2 and 3 way). Are there any multi-color bulbs which can be used with these switches?

    Of course, I don't expect the existing switches to be able to magically handle the color features. But it would be nice to be able to change the color of the bulb when it is on, using the bulb-specific controller.

    I'd just want the bulb to revert to last state when turned back on, or even just come on at full white. And not break prematurely when dimmed, or ramping up from off to bright daily.

    I suspect the hardware inside the bulb which controls the color changing & communication would be very upset when dim, and probably even when off in the case of trickle current in the dimmers without neutral wire.

    But maybe someone has created a bulb which can tolerate dimming.

    I don't want to replace the existing dimmers.

    Thanks
Working...
