I builds up in the wire just behind the switch, to be released the next time the switch is opened. That’s why it’s so blindingly bright for a second when you turn on the light when using the bathroom at night (the light having been off for several hours).
Putting a dimmer switch in the bathroom has probably been the best cheap quality of life upgrade ever.
I have it set so when pushed all the way down is just enough voltage to turn the LED bulbs on, not fully off, so there’s no guesswork where to set it when stumbling in during the night or first thing in the AM.
Have it dimmed real low while showering and getting ready for bed to get my eyes used to the dark, flip it all the way down as I leave, and then as I wake up in the AM I can bump it up a little to gradually wake me up. Life changing!

Thanks, Calvin’s dad 😁
