    Good LED bulb will not work in a socket

    You are correct Averagesupernova. 👍 I messed up royal on post 12. The dimmer only use's the hot wire.

    I have to admit I was scratching my head Hutch. :oldconfused:

    Its very simple Averagesuprenova... Hot wire goes through the dimmer to control the voltage, then it goes to the meter, then it goes to power the light bulb. Neutral goes to the meter and then the light bulb.

    Borek you nailed it... Not sure what happened but finally all the bulbs stopped working. Apparently the dimmer died. It tripped the breaker whatever happened inside it. New dimmer now and everything is working. Thanks to all!

    I suppose its possible but Lutron would be the De facto standard if there is one for dimmers. :rolleyes: I would think A GE bulb that says "dimmable" should work with a Lutron dimmer.

    120 volt hot/neutral to dimmer, hot and neutral to the meter and then to the socket. Thats it.

    I would suspect the dimmer but every other bulb in the house works in it.

    Correct. Simple circuit... Dimmer to voltmeter to bulb.

    For the record, VOM shows a solid 119 volts at the socket. All I can think of is somehow the inline volt meter is effecting this bulb somehow? There is really nothing else to question.

    No, I have other LED bulbs that are built the same way (vintage style) but they are regular sized bulbs.

    Good LED bulb will not work in a socket

    Hi all, 25 year electrician here with a strange (to me) issue. I have a science project lamp that has a dimmer, a volt meter and a socket with a bulb in it. The kids can turn on the bulb, rotate the dimmer and watch the voltage go up and down on the meter. Simple enough. Every dimmable bulb...
