I was referring to the write up. I posted it over a year ago.

I'm not sure, but I'd be surprised if you can dim those LED's that plug into the standard bulb socket with the standard dimmer switch. LEDs require a wider range of resistance than a stock dimmer switch provides for filament bulbs to get them to dim. Otherwise they're either on or off.
