SATCO Lighting S11448 14W A19 LED, Frost Finish, Medium Base, 1520 Lumens, Cool White, 120V, 100-Pack

No. The S11448 is a non-dimmable lamp. Put it on a dimmer circuit and you can expect flicker, buzz, or early failure. For units with dimmer-controlled fixtures, spec a dimmable A19 instead and keep this one for closets, corridors, laundry rooms, and other full-on switched circuits.

Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so it can go in closed globes, drum fixtures, and flush-mount ceiling pans without voiding the rating. It also burns in any position, base up, base down, or horizontal, which matters for wall sconces and enclosed vanity fixtures.

Bathrooms and covered porches that stay dry of direct rain are fine: the lamp carries a damp location rating. It is listed for indoor use, so it should not go in an open, wet-location fixture exposed to rain or spray. For those, spec a wet-rated lamp.

The S11448 runs 4000K, a neutral cool white that reads clean and bright. That suits corridors, stairwells, laundry rooms, garages, storage, and back-of-house where you want visibility. For resident units and hospitality guest rooms where people expect the warm look of an incandescent, 2700K or 3000K is the usual choice. Color temperature is fixed on this lamp, not field selectable, so mixing it into an existing 2700K corridor will show an obvious color difference.

No. Satco flags this lamp as non-compliant for California, so it should not be specified for jobs in that state. Choose a California-compliant A19 LED for those properties.

Not as a three-way lamp. The S11448 is single-level output only. Screwed into a three-way socket it will simply light at full 1520 lumens on the positions that energize it, and the low setting will not work as intended. If a tenant needs three-way function, order a lamp built for it.

Rated life is 10,000 hours. The frosted A19 envelope throws a 220 degree beam spread, so it lights a room broadly rather than aiming light in one direction, which is what you want in table lamps, ceiling pans, and open fixtures. The frost diffuses the LED sources so you do not see hot spots through a clear shade.

CRI is 80, which is standard for general-purpose commercial and MRO lighting and fine for corridors, offices, back-of-house, and multi-family common areas. If a spec calls for 90 CRI or better, as some retail display, exam room, and hospitality applications do, this lamp will not meet it.

No. This lamp is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify for rebate programs that require a DesignLights Consortium listing. If your retrofit project depends on utility incentive money, verify the program's qualified products list before committing to this lamp.

The lamp uses a plastic and aluminum base construction with a white housing and a frosted A19 envelope. That is more forgiving than glass incandescent stock on a service cart or in a maintenance truck, which is part of why it ships as a 100-pack for fleet relamping.
