Seems like the solution may end up being the new line of dimmers. If I do find some I’ll be sure to post them here.

Have you found any LED dimmable bulbs that work well with your RadioRA dimmers?

Lutron makes an LED/CFL dimmer and publishes a list of compatibile lamps.

The driver inside is usually the culprit.

http://wwww.t8LED.org has a few interesting linears for sale.

Mine also only happens to the “other” circuits when I use a circuit. For example, the kitchen lights that are on a Lutron dimmer flicker slightly when I turn off the mudroom lights that are also on a Lutron dimmer. Again mine is worse when one is set low on the dimmer. I’m told part of the problem can be a polarity thing so you might check to see if the polarity is the same on both switches.

I dont know what to do about this as I cannot live with severe light flickering. Especially now that I have already removed the hangers for the standard bulbs from my canisters. Do you think it might have to do with the fact that I have six lights on each dimmer? I don’t understand why it happens more as the light gets brighter. I would have expected the opposite.
