Hi,
I have a 110v 2400W (full power) cooktop that I plug into a dedicated 20amp plug. When I turn it on and use it the kitchen lights flicker as well as some other lights, I narrowed it down to the ones on dimmers. The Sunco LED lights are dimmable. I have to turn down the dimmer to half power before the flickering stops, I'm not sure the brand of dimmer, but is this caused by a cheap dimmer, and what type/brand of dimmer should I try to use? Or maybe, just a cheap cooktop that has crappy power modulation? I switched the flickering lights breaker to another slot in the panel and that does not remediate the issue.
I ended up putting in a normal toggle switch instead of the Leviton Dimmer and the issue went away, so that's what I'm just going to leave it as. These dimmers and LED lights can be a PITA.
Thank you
