SATCO Lighting S29589 9.5W, A19 LED, Frosted, 3000K, Medium Base, 220 degree Beam Angle, 120V, Non-Dimmable, 4-Pack

No. The S29589 is a non-dimmable lamp. Put it on a dimmer circuit and you can expect flicker, buzz, or premature failure, and it won't dim smoothly through the range. If the fixture is on a dimmer, either swap the switch for a standard toggle or spec a dimmable A19 instead.

Yes. The S29589 draws 9.5 watts and puts out 800 lumens, which is the standard 60W incandescent replacement level, and Satco rates it as a 60W equivalent. At 3000K it reads as a warm white, a touch cleaner than the yellow of an old incandescent but not the blue-white of a 5000K lamp.

Yes, it's an enclosed rated lamp, so a closed glass globe, a drum fixture, or a jelly jar is fine. Most LED A19s are not enclosed rated and cook themselves in a sealed fixture. It also carries a universal burning position, so base up, base down, or horizontal all work.

Bathrooms and other damp interior spots are fine. The S29589 carries a damp location rating and is classed as an indoor lamp, so an enclosed bath fixture, a laundry room, or a covered breezeway that stays dry is within rating. Do not use it anywhere it can take direct rain or spray, like an open soffit or an exposed post light. Those openings need a wet location lamp.

No, not for California. The S29589 is flagged non-compliant under California's Title 20 lamp regulations. Satco lists the S8561 as the California alternate substitute for it, so that is the part to order for a CA property. Everywhere else the S29589 is the correct lamp.

The lens is frosted and the lamp is lensed, so the output is diffused rather than showing individual diodes. That matters in open shades, schoolhouse globes, and bare-socket fixtures where a clear filament-style bulb shows its emitters. The 220 degree beam spread throws light out to the sides and back toward the base, not just straight down, so it fills a shade the way the old incandescent did.

The S29589 is rated 15,000 average hours. On a common-area fixture burning about 12 hours a day that's roughly 3.4 years between relamps; on a 24/7 corridor it's closer to 1.7 years. For a property manager, that's the number that decides whether relamping a whole building at once is worth the labor.

Not as a three-way. The S29589 is a single-output lamp, so in a three-way socket it will light at one level only, and on some sockets it may only come on at certain switch positions. For a three-way table lamp you need a lamp built for it. In a standard on/off socket the S29589 is correct.

No. The S29589 is not DLC approved, so it won't qualify on a utility program that requires a DLC listing. If the rebate is driving the project, that has to be sorted before the order. The lamp is FCC compliant, so radio interference on the circuit isn't a concern.

The S29589 is packed 4 to a carton, one frosted A19 LED per socket. For a multi-unit relamp, count your sockets and divide by four to get the carton count.
