how many lumens

4 years ago

I want to use led ceiling fixture in kitchen and not use a dimmer because of problems with buzzing. The led fixture that I have now is 4,200 lumens and I only have the dimmer half way up. I figure I need a fixture half as bright as the one I have. So should I be looking for something about 2,000 lumens?

won't work. I need a neutral line to get rid of buzzing. My building doesn't have that
