Smoothness of Dimming
This lamp has no flicker when stationary at any output. Some small "steps" or "shimmer" are visible while the lamp is fading between levels, this is more noticeable when used with a RMT500 as opposed to the RAK4-T. The dimming profile is relatively linear and even although the dimming is to some extent grouped in the top 1/3 of the dimmer output range.
Audible Noise
No audible noise when used with any dimmer.
Notes
This lamp and driver combination should not be used with leading edge dimmers. While it performs well enough in most of the output range between around 60-80% of maximum output the lamp flickers violently.
