SATCO Lighting S22214 8.5W PAR30L LED, 90 CRI, 3000K, 40 degree Beam Angle, Medium Base, 120V

3000K is warm white, the usual commercial warm tone, so it sits alongside existing 3000K lamps without an obvious color shift. The 90+ CRI rating means color rendering is high, which matters for retail displays, food service, and anywhere skin tones or merchandise color are judged. Mixing it on the same ceiling with 2700K or 4000K lamps will read as a visible difference, so standardize the whole run.

Yes, the 8.5W PAR30L is a dimmable lamp. Pair it with a dimmer rated for LED loads, since a low 8.5 watt draw can fall under the minimum load of older incandescent-only dimmers and cause flicker or drop-out at the bottom of the range.

At 700 lumens, the S22214 lands in the range of a 60 to 75 watt incandescent or halogen PAR30 flood, drawing 8.5 watts to do it. For retail or hospitality accent work where the old lamp was a 75W halogen, output is comparable; if the existing lamp is a 90W PAR30 halogen you will see a drop in punch.

Forty degrees is a flood spread, not a spot. It's the choice for general recessed downlighting, wall washing, and lighting merchandise displays or guest room ceilings where you want even coverage rather than a tight highlight on a single object. If you need to pick out artwork or a single product on a plinth, a narrower spot beam is the better tool.

Treat the 8.5W PAR30L as an indoor lamp. It is built of aluminum and plastic and is catalogued for indoor lighting use, so put it in interior recessed cans, track heads, and monopoint fixtures. For a covered soffit or exterior application, specify a lamp rated for damp or wet locations.

The lamp weighs 0.21 lb. That is light enough for standard track heads and gimbal rings without worrying about head droop, which is a real issue when swapping in heavier cast-body retrofit lamps.
