Satco Lighting S14990 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Satco S14990 black light bulb work on a standard dimmer switch?
No. The S14990 A19 black light LED is non-dimmable, so it needs to run on a plain on/off switch. Put it on a dimmer and you risk flicker, buzz, or a dead lamp. It is also not a three-way bulb, so it won't step through levels in a three-way socket.
2) Can I use this Satco black light LED outdoors or in a covered patio fixture?
It's an indoor lamp with a damp location rating. That covers enclosed indoor spots where humidity gets high, and a covered, protected soffit or porch fixture that never sees direct rain or blowing water. Anywhere exposed to weather needs a wet location rated lamp instead.
3) How bright is a 6.5W black light LED bulb compared to a regular 60W bulb?
Don't buy this expecting room light. The S14990 draws 6.5 watts in the body of a 60W-equivalent A19, but its black glass lens passes only 110 to 120 lumens, a fraction of what a 60W incandescent puts out. The equivalency refers to the lamp format, not usable illumination. It's for UV effect lighting, not for lighting a space.
4) How long does a Satco LED black light bulb last before it needs replacing?
Rated at 15,000 average hours. For a property manager running black lights in a stairwell inspection routine or a bar that runs them 6 hours a night, that's roughly seven years of nightly use, so relamping isn't a recurring line item the way a fluorescent BLB tube would be.
5) Should I use LED black light bulbs or fluorescent black light tubes for a haunt or party room?
Screw-in LED like the S14990 wins where you already have A19 sockets and no room for a fixture change: medium base, 120V, no ballast, universal mounting, 15,000 hours. Fluorescent BLB tubes still throw more raw UV area coverage over a long wall. For scattered can lights, table lamps, and existing sockets, the LED is the drop-in. For a full wall wash, a tube fixture covers more ground.
6) Does this black light bulb throw light in all directions or just forward like a flood?
360 degree beam spread, so it emits all the way around the A19 body rather than in a cone. In an open socket or a table lamp that fills the space evenly. In a recessed can or a deep shade, most of that output gets trapped, so an omnidirectional lamp is the wrong choice for directional aiming.
7) Is the Satco S14990 glass or plastic, and will it hold up in a commercial fixture?
Glass lens on an aluminum and glass base assembly. The black is in the glass, not a coating sprayed on plastic, so it won't scuff off with handling or cleaning. Glass also means normal care in high-traffic or gym-type spaces where a lamp can get hit.
8) Can I sell or install Satco S14990 black light bulbs in California?
Yes, the S14990 is lawful for sale in California. It's also FCC compliant, which matters if you're putting a batch of them near AV, radio, or sound gear at a venue.
9) Does the Satco S14990 come in different color temperatures or other finishes?
One configuration only: black finish, 6.5W, A19, medium base, 120V, MPN S14990. It's not a CCT selectable lamp, there's no white or amber version of this part number, and no field switch to change the output. If you need a standard white A19 for the same socket, that's a different Satco part.
