Led Cans

Can you install led can lights on dimmer switches?

I know that the Cree LED recessed can trims can be installed on a specific lutron dimmer. I don't know the exact model of dimmer but was told by the Cree rep that it is listed on Lutron's website.

Here is something from Halo. Not all LED's are created equal.

The HALO LED luminaire is dimmable to 15% (nominal) of the total
light output with standard AC incandescent dimmers or to 5% (nominal) using standard incandescent dimmers with low end trim adjustment. Standard dimmers require a minimum of three LED modules (minimum 40 watts load) on the circuit for full range (15%) dimming performance. For dimming fewer than three LED modules (less than 40 watts), or with digital ?Smart? dimmers use electronic low voltage models which require a a neutral connection in
the wallbox (minimum circuit load of one LED module).

i havent personally seen them but it sounds like all the other led stuff coming out now. they dont do dimmers because they dont provide enough candelas anyway. of course thats just my opinion. i could be wrong.
