anymore. I would

think it would be less likely to burn the yogurt maker out because it's keeping

it from

getting too hot. The dimmer switch works by lowering the power to the machine.

This may be OT but dimmers give off the most current to those with electrical

sensitivities

According t professor Magda Havas,

As many as 3% of the population have full blown EHS and are unable to live is a

modern

electrical environment. Many complain that they cannot be in a room with

fluorescent

lights because they feel " unwell " . These people have difficulty shopping in

large

department stores because of the lighting and often go with list in hand and

spend as

little time in the store as possible. Their cognitive functions diminish and

some have

difficulty recalling where they parked their car.

Putting lights on dimmer switches exacerbates the problem. The dimmer switch

converts

the electrical signal into high frequency transients that result in dirty

electricity. Even clean

incandescent lights will produce dirty electricity if a dimmer switch is used.
