Anyone using the C-start dimmers/ switches?

Seems some people have issues ..... I'm not really interested in all the crazy stuff .... but I don't understand how they work together if you have many in a house. Actually don't want them to. but -- that's not why I like them anyway

Happen to like GE Reveal bulbs ..... up until now the LED version of the bulb has not matched the incandescent. It's close enough with the newest version that I'm going to use some in my new build.

Bought some Reveal bulbs and various dimmers and the C-start dimmer is superior in dimming the GE Reveal bulbs .. including the Lutron. These are just the regular LED bulbs - not the smart bulbs.

The house has some big open spaces with many large fixtures -- a few hold 9 bulbs .. another 12. LED would be practical in those locations.

I'm more attracted to the idea of smart switches, and the C-smart switches are either new or yet to be released.

Lowes has them ... They also have the newest GE Reveal LED bulbs. They have a full glass case ... look just like a regular bulb. They work much better in conventional lamps ... where you need down light from a base down bulb.
