I've recently replaced a standard 3-pole switch with the Honeywell RPLS540A programmable switch. The product says that it is not compatible with CFL or LED lighting. I foolishly did not read the fine print and only discovered this after installation. I had two overhead CFLs and they flickered when the switch was turned off, which I came to learn was due to the issue discussed here. I've replaced the CFLs with LEDs and everything seems to be working fine despite the claim of "incompatibility" with both CFLs and LEDs. Is there any reason that this setup has created a potential safety/fire/shock issue? Or if things are working normally can I be reasonably confident that I'm okay?
