dimmer,if you use a pulse the light will flicker.You can use a ceramic with a dimming stat too. |

Yeah as above Dimming stat is is the only one that you can really use with any light emitting heat source to maintain s constant level. |

Its a complicated way to do it, sounds like youd be better off with a ceramic bulb :-)
