Yes, I still have small incandescents in our kitchen lamp on our dimmer switch. Our fridge and oven have incandescents.

I am not yet ready to pay what they are asking for CFLs that work on dimmer switch circuits. I may just not even get them and get the white diode lights instead when their prices come down.

We’re all waiting for LED bulbs. Hopefully soon.

The knock on dimmable CFLs is that they do not dim 0%-100%, but only down to about 30%.

I’ve only read this, and don’t know if (a) it’s true or (b) how much of an issue it truly is.
