I had good luck with a Lutron TG-600PH until I installed dimmable
compact flourescents bulbs. Now that same dimmer that was very
quiet with an incandescent load is very noisy on MW/160/80 using
the dimmable compact fourescents. When I am in the garage working
and listening to AM talk radio, I can tell when my wife is in the kitchen
:):)
