Just wondering.... Do the LEDs affect the electrical system in any way? The dimming feature still operates with LEDs in?

Thanks!

Lol, looks like you got a strip club.

I bought some cheap blue LEDs from China. Big mistake. Way to dim. I'll have to pick some of these up. I have the blue theme going on. Should I get white to get a blue or get blue LEDS. I don't want it to be too dim.

Blue LEDs will be very blue. I didn't want mine to be that blue that's why I went with the white, which gives off a very mild blue color. I just got the standard intensity, but you can always get the high intensity ones if you prefer.

So far, I've not notice any issue with the LEDs. If anything, it fixed the dimming issue of standard bulbs everytime the A/C is activated. And yes, you can dim the LEDs.
