SATCO Lighting S21256 6W G40 LED, White, Medium Base, 90 CRI, 3000K, 120V

Yes, the S21256 carries a Wet location rating and is listed for indoor or outdoor use, so an exposed porch fixture, a covered patio, or a bathroom vanity are all fair game. It's also enclosed rated, meaning you can run it inside a sealed glass globe or a closed jelly-jar fixture without the trapped heat shortening its life. Between those two ratings it covers the fixtures that kill most LED lamps.

The lamp is dimmable. It's an LED filament lamp at 6 watts drawing 0.050A, which is the catch on older installations: a legacy incandescent dimmer usually needs a minimum load well above what one or two of these pull, so you get flicker or drop-out at the low end. On a multi-lamp vanity or chandelier the combined load usually solves it. On a single-lamp fixture, plan on an LED-rated dimmer.

3000K is warm white, a touch cleaner than the 2700K soft white most older incandescent and early LED stock sits at. If your other fixtures are 2700K, this will read slightly whiter side by side. Where it will look better than what you have is color rendering: at 90 CRI it shows wood tone, paint, and skin more accurately than the 80 CRI lamps that fill most bulk buys. For a fleet standardization, run one fixture first and see if the shift bothers you.

Burning position is universal, so base-up, base-down, or horizontal all work with no derating. That matters on a G40 because these often go into pendant clusters, sconces, and mirror bars where the socket orientation isn't a choice. Rated life is 15,000 hours in any of those positions.

Beam spread is 320 degrees, which is near-omnidirectional. It throws light back past the base rather than only forward, so in a vanity bar or an open-bottom pendant you get the wash a decorative filament lamp is expected to give, not a spotlight. At 500 lumens each, a three or four lamp mirror bar lands in the usual range for a bathroom.

Title 24 compliant, which is what a contractor or property manager needs when the lamp is going into permitted work in California. It is also FCC compliant. Note it is not DLC listed, so if you're chasing a commercial utility rebate that requires a DLC qualified product number, this lamp won't carry it.

No. It's a single-output lamp with no three-way circuitry, so in a three-way socket it will light at one level or not respond to the switch positions the way the old three-way bulb did. For a three-way table lamp you need a lamp specifically built for it. This one is a straight dimmable 120V lamp instead.

Fixed. This is not a CCT selectable lamp, there's no switch on the base, so every unit ships and stays at 3000K. For a property manager buying across a building that's an advantage, you can't have a maintenance tech leave one fixture on the wrong setting. If you need to change color point later, you're changing lamps.

The lamp is glass with a nickel plated aluminum base, and the finish is white, so the globe is opaque rather than a clear filament look. If you want the exposed filament visible, this isn't the version to order. White diffuses the LED filament, which is what you want when the lamp sits at eye level in a mirror bar or an open pendant.

Each lamp draws 0.050A at 120V, 6 watts. That's a fraction of what the old 60W globes pulled, so a retrofit across a hotel corridor or an apartment building frees up a lot of headroom on existing circuits. Practically, the limiting factor becomes the fixtures and the dimmer's rating, not the lamp load.
