In a pinch? This is exactly the product to use to come close to solving the problem. It's MADE to solve the problem.
Every dimmer needs a certain minimum load to operate correctly. LED loads are very different from incandescent loads, firstly in that they draw much less current. There's irony in having to increase the load on a dimmer when one of the reasons for using the LEDs in the first place is the lower current draw.
The reason I said "In a pinch" is because from what I have been told from Lutron and according to their online docs the Lutron - MLC is only to be used with switches not dimmers (ie: Caseta PD-5WS-DV). They don't guarantee it will work with dimmers.
