SATCO Lighting S29834 6W, A19 LED, 5000K, Medium Base, 220 degree Beam Angle, 120V

No. The S29834 is flagged Non-Compliant for California, so it cannot be sold into California under Title 20. Satco lists S8481 as the California-compliant alternate for this lamp, so that is the part to order for a CA jobsite.

Yes. The S29834 puts out 480 lumens on 6 watts and Satco rates it as a 40W incandescent equivalent, so it is a one-for-one swap in a 40W socket. At 5000K it will read as crisp daylight white, not the warm yellow of the incandescent it replaces, so if you are only changing some lamps in a space the color difference will show.

Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so a closed ceiling dome, glass globe, or sealed jelly jar is fine. Burning position is universal too, meaning base up, base down, or horizontal all work. That is the combination that trips up a lot of cheaper A19 LEDs in multi-family corridors and stairwells.

The S29834 carries a damp location rating and is classified as an indoor lamp. A damp rating covers a covered porch, a bathroom, or a laundry where there is humidity but no direct water, not an exposed wet-location fixture taking rain or spray. For an open outdoor fixture you want a wet-rated lamp instead.

The S29834 is a dimmable lamp on 120V, 60Hz line voltage. It is not a three-way bulb, so it will not step through low/medium/high in a 3-way socket; in that socket it would run at a single output. For dimming, the lamp has to be on an LED-rated dimmer, not a legacy incandescent rheostat, to avoid flicker and buzz.

5000K is daylight white, not the 2700K-3000K warm tone most residential interiors use. On the S29834 that makes it a good fit for laundry rooms, utility and mechanical spaces, garages, stairwells, storage, and work areas where you want contrast. In living rooms and bedrooms tenants usually read it as cold. CRI is 80, which is fine for general lighting but not for color-critical work.

Each S29834 draws 0.050A at 120V, so current load is negligible even across a large lamp count. Rated life is 25,000 hours, which at roughly 12 hours a day of common-area use works out to about 5.7 years before relamping. That is the number to plan a building-wide relamp cycle against.

No. The S29834 is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify under utility programs that require a DesignLights Consortium listing. It is FCC compliant for electromagnetic interference.

Beam spread is 220 degrees, so it throws light nearly all the way around rather than down in a cone, which is what you want in an open fixture or a shaded lamp. The lens is frosted and lensed, which diffuses the LED array so you do not see individual diodes or get a hot point source through a clear shade.

No. The S29834 is fixed at 5000K and is not CCT selectable, and it ships in one configuration, a frost lens. If you need 2700K or 3000K for unit interiors, that is a different Satco part number, not an option on this one.
