undimmable

Cannot be darkened

Undimmable describes a light source that cannot be reduced in brightness—it's either fully on or off, with no gradation between.

Some LED bulbs are undimmable and will flicker or fail if connected to a dimmer switch.

Figuratively, undimmable describes enthusiasm or spirit that refuses to fade: Her undimmable optimism carried the team through setbacks.
