Q: 3. Will they work with a conventional house dimmer? if so, do they dim to a nice low level or do they stay at 15-20%?

A: Hi Samuel, unfortunately, we can't guarantee that they will work with a conventional dimmer. Our experience is that if they work, dimming is not consistent as the conventional dimming circuits are designed for low-impedance lights that use Tungsten/incandescent bulbs. What works for some people is to use one Tungsten bulb on a circuit, combined with LED bulbs. The best solution for dimmable LED bulbs is to install a new dimmer switch designed for LED bulbs.
