They are pretty easy to swap, just make sure you turn the breaker off, and look up some videos if you are uncertain.

A normal dimmer simply turns down the voltage, but LEDs don’t work like that, so LED compatible dimmers physically turn the power on and off really fast.
Sometimes dimmer switches can’t actually give 100% of the power, sometime only 95% or so. Perhaps the power drop was making the LEDs not turn on right away?
I’d try changing out the dimmer switch first.
