SATCO Lighting S29593 9.5W, A19 LED, Frosted, 2700K Medium Base, 220 degree Beam Angle, 120V, Non-Dimmable

No. The S29593 is a non-dimmable lamp. Put it on a dimmer circuit and you get flicker, buzz, or a dead lamp, and you may damage the dimmer. For units where the fixtures are on dimmers, order a dimmable A19 instead and keep this one for closets, hallways, stairwells, laundry rooms, and any fixture running off a plain toggle switch.

Yes. It's an enclosed rated lamp, so a flush-mount drum, a closed glass globe, or a jelly jar is fine. That's the detail that kills most LED retrofits in apartment hallways and stairwells, where heat builds inside a sealed fixture and cooks a lamp that wasn't rated for it. Burning position is universal, so base up, base down, or horizontal all work.

Bathrooms, yes. The S29593 carries a damp location rating, which covers bathrooms, laundry rooms, and covered walkways where condensation happens but water doesn't hit the lamp directly. It is an indoor lamp, so keep it out of open soffits, exposed post lanterns, and anywhere rain or spray can reach it. Those openings need a wet rated lamp.

No. This lamp is flagged non-compliant for California, so it can't be sold into that market. For CA properties you need a California compliant A19 LED, which is a separate Satco item number. Buyers outside California are unaffected.

2700K is warm white, the same soft yellow tone as the incandescent lamp most residential fixtures were built around. It's the standard choice for apartment living rooms, bedrooms, corridors, and hospitality guest rooms. Go to 3000K or 4000K instead for garages, back-of-house, utility rooms, and work areas where people want a crisper white. This lamp is fixed at 2700K, not color selectable, so you can't switch it in the field.

The lens is frosted plastic (PS), which diffuses the output so you don't see individual diodes through it. That matters in open fixtures, bare-socket porcelain, and clear glass shades where a clear LED lamp shows visible dots. Beam spread is 220 degrees, so light wraps back past the base rather than firing straight down like a reflector lamp, which is what you want in a table lamp or a bare ceiling socket.

No. It's a single-level, non three-way lamp. Screw it into a three-way socket and it will run at full 800 lumen output regardless of which click the switch is on, or it may only light on certain positions. For a three-way table lamp you need a lamp specifically built as three-way.

Average rated life is 15,000 hours. On a corridor or stairwell fixture burning 24/7 that's a little over 20 months; on a unit fixture at about 3 hours a day it's over 13 years. For an MRO buyer that's the number to plan a relamp cycle around, and it's why standardizing a whole property on one lamp type pays off.

No, the S29593 is not DLC listed, so it won't qualify under a DesignLights Consortium rebate program. If a rebate is driving the project, you need a lamp carrying the DLC listing. The lamp is FCC compliant, so radio interference in occupied buildings isn't a concern.
