Has anyone has a problem with flickering dimmable lights?

what's the lamp type and manufacturer? ballast? dimmer?

I've heard of some T5 lamps from one manufacturer having issues a couple years ago. But I thought it was taken care of.

At low levels, all of the ones I've see flicker noticabley. Depends on how tolerant your clients are to flickering. Some folks can almost see the 60Hz flicker of normal undimmed flouresents, generally they complain that they give them headaches.

What is the application? Perhaps another form of dimmable lighting would be more appropriate?
