SATCO Lighting S11473 8.5W, BR30 LED, 5000K, 80 CRI, Medium Base, 120V, Dimmable, 6-Pack

Yes. The S11473 is an enclosed rated lamp, so it can go in a sealed recessed can or a closed-glass ceiling fixture without voiding the rating. It is also damp location rated, which covers a covered porch ceiling or a bathroom can, but it is an indoor lamp and should not be used in wet, direct-exposure locations.

Only if the other lamps are also 5000K. At 5000K this is a daylight-white lamp, noticeably cooler and bluer than the 2700K or 3000K warm white most residential units use. It is not CCT selectable, so it is fixed at 5000K with an 80 CRI rendering. For corridors, garages, shops, and stairwells it standardizes well; mixing it into a unit that already has warm lamps will read as an obvious mismatch.

The lamp is dimmable on 120V, 60Hz. The practical catch is load: at 8.5W and 0.071A each, six lamps on one circuit total about 51W, which is below the minimum load some older incandescent-rated dimmers need to run smoothly. If you are re-lamping a whole room, an LED-rated dimmer is the reliable pairing.

No. This BR30 lamp is flagged non-compliant for California, so it should not be specified for jobs in that state. For California work you need a lamp that meets the state's lighting requirements.

No. The S11473 is not a three-way lamp, so in a three-way socket it will either run at a single output or behave unpredictably. For three-way table and floor lamps you need a lamp specifically listed as three-way. Dimming is handled by a wall dimmer on this one instead.

Burning position is universal, so base up in a recessed can, base down in a pendant, or horizontal in a sconce all work. Combined with the enclosed rating, that makes it a single lamp you can standardize across mixed fixture types in a building.

Rated at 25,000 hours. Run 12 hours a day in a lobby or corridor that works out to roughly 5.7 years before replacement, which is why a lot of property managers move common-area cans to LED first. At 0.071A per lamp you also free up circuit capacity compared with the 65W incandescents these replace.

No. The S11473 is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify under programs that require a DLC listing. If your rebate application depends on that listing, you need a DLC-qualified lamp instead.

The lens is frosted plastic over a white housing, so the light is diffused rather than a bare-diode point source. In an open recessed trim that keeps glare down compared with a clear lens. It will not give the crisp shadow edges of a clear spot lamp.
