I would like to install track lighting in my kitchen using CFL bulbs?

SOURCE: CFL bulbs for fan fixture

I had a simple question and you wanted me to pay you to answer it.

I am still hoping to get a CFL lightbulb with socket size E17 to provide more light for my kitchen, but you won't help.

Screw you all.

I had this same problem with a Hampton Bay fan with a remote light switch. I call the manufacturer of the of the switch and was told that the model switch I had would not work correctly with CFL bulbs. The problem is with the dimmer function. You either need to change the bulbs to incandescent, or change the remote receiver in the ceiling. Hampton Bay was kind enough to send me a new receiver that works with CFL. The CFL units are white, and the incandescent is black. Hope this helps you.

The problem is that the CFL lamps, once they are lit, will stay energized by a very low level of current, and the remote obviously is not what we would call a positive off device .. if you use the wall switch and then go back to the remote in the off position , do the lights come on flickering again? You could try another brand of remote.

SOURCE: I have installed the Maestro

Maestro dimmers are not recommended with any CFL for pretty much the reasons you are experiencing. The electronics within the CFLs are probably not letting the power circuitry in the Maestro charge-up - and because of that, it comes as no surprise that adding an incandescent lamp solves the problem. The company makes products that are compatible in their Ariadnia/Toggler & Diva product families, but not Maestro - you just need to make sure the dimmer itself identifies itself as compatible with CFLs.

The 15086 is a straight timer, so it should work with no problems. CFL bulbs only have problems when run off a photocell switch/timer or a dimmer circuit.
