About LED lighting services
Old trailing-edge dimmers designed for filament lamps flicker or buzz with LED loads, and the fix is a compatible dimmer rather than different bulbs. Integrated LED fittings last years but cannot be relamped, so when they fail the fitting goes with them, which is worth knowing before specifying them throughout a house.
