SATCO Lighting S11225 8W T10 LED, Frosted, Medium Base, 4000K, High Lumen, 120V, 90 CRI, Dimmable, Carded

Yes. The S11225 is an enclosed rated lamp, so it can go in a closed globe, a jelly jar, or a sealed vanity fixture without the heat trap shortening its life the way it does with lamps that carry no enclosed rating. It is also damp location rated, which covers a bathroom, a covered entry, or a laundry room. Keep it out of wet locations and direct weather exposure, and note the burning position is universal, so base up, base down, or horizontal all work.

It replaces a 60 watt incandescent, drawing 8 watts to do it and putting out 900 lumens. That is a brighter 60W equivalent than most, so if you are swapping a row of old 60W tubulars in a mirror bar or a picture light, expect the new ones to read noticeably brighter than the originals. Base is a standard medium screw base, so it drops straight into the existing socket.

The lamp is dimmable on 120 volt line voltage at 60 Hz. What it will not do is behave on an old incandescent-era dimmer that needs a heavy load to run smoothly. At 0.067 amps per lamp, a single bulb pulls almost nothing, so a two or three lamp fixture on a leading edge dimmer sized for incandescent can flicker or drop out at the low end. Pair it with an LED-rated dimmer and check the dimmer's minimum load against your lamp count. It is not a three-way lamp, so it will not step through levels in a three-way socket.

Only if the rest of the fixtures are also 4000K. The S11225 is a fixed 4000K neutral white, not field selectable, so there is no switch to bring it down to a warm 2700K or 3000K. If your corridors and units are on warm white, a 4000K lamp in the same run will read visibly cooler and blue next to them. For a property manager standardizing a fleet, that makes this the right lamp for common areas, lobbies, laundry, and back of house where neutral white is the house standard, and the wrong one for a single replacement in a warm white apartment fixture.

Only where it stays out of the weather. The lamp is rated for indoor use and damp locations, which covers a covered porch ceiling, a soffit, or an enclosed wall lantern that keeps rain off the socket. It is not wet location rated, so an open bottom fixture where water can reach the lamp, or anything in direct rain or spray, needs a wet-rated lamp instead.

The frosted T10 puts out a full 360 degree beam spread, so it lights the whole tube around its axis rather than aiming one way. That is what you want in an open fixture where the bulb is visible, a bare-socket sign or mirror light, or a shade that relies on the lamp to fill it. The frost diffuses the LED sources so you do not see hard diodes through the glass. If you need light pushed in one direction only, a tubular lamp is the wrong shape and a reflector lamp is the right one.

The S11225 is a 90 CRI lamp, against the 80 CRI that most general service LEDs carry. Color rendering in the 90s is what keeps merchandise, paint, skin tones, and wood grain from looking flat and washed under the light. For a hotel corridor, a showroom, a salon, or a dental or exam room, that difference is the reason to spec this lamp. In a storeroom or a mechanical space, it is money you do not need to spend.

Yes. The S11225 is lawful for sale in California and is FCC compliant for electromagnetic interference. It is not a DLC listed product, so if your utility rebate program requires a DLC qualified lamp, this one will not qualify for that incentive.

Each lamp pulls 0.067 amps at 120 volts, 8 watts. That is roughly a fifteenth of what a 60 watt incandescent draws, so a multi-lamp bath bar or a vanity strip that was at its limit on incandescent has enormous headroom on these. The practical limit stops being the circuit and becomes the dimmer's minimum load instead.

Rated at 15,000 hours. On a common area fixture burning around 12 hours a day, that is roughly three and a half years between relamps; on a 24/7 corridor it works out near 21 months. For an MRO buyer building a relamp schedule across a fleet of fixtures, that is the number to plan the cycle around.

Order Satco S11225. That is the manufacturer part number for the 8 watt T10 LED in frost, 4000K, 90 CRI, medium base, 120 volt, dimmable, supplied carded for retail display. Frost is the only finish it comes in, so there is no second option to sort out on the order.

Plastic base, in a medium screw size, with a white housing. Plastic will not seize or gall into an aluminum socket shell the way a brass base sometimes does in a damp bath or exterior soffit fixture, which makes removal easier at relamp time. Do not overtighten it on install; snug is enough.
