Satco Lighting S29838 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use this Satco 9.8W A19 LED in a fully enclosed ceiling fixture?
Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so a closed glass dome or jelly jar is fine. It is also damp location rated, which covers bathrooms, covered porch fixtures and laundry rooms. It is an indoor lamp, so don't use it in a wet location fixture exposed to direct rain.
2) Is the Satco S29838 dimmable, and does it work as a three-way bulb?
It is dimmable, so it can go on a dimmer circuit. It is not a three-way lamp, so don't put it in a 3-way socket expecting low/medium/high steps. It also isn't a color-selectable lamp; the output is fixed at 4000K cool white.
3) Can I ship the Satco S29838 to a job in California?
No. This lamp is flagged non-compliant for California, so it cannot be used on projects governed by the state's Title 20 appliance rules. Satco lists S8480 as the California-compliant alternate for this lamp.
4) Does this Satco A19 LED throw light in all directions like an old bulb?
Close to it. The beam spread is 220 degrees with a frosted plastic lens diffusing the output, so it spreads light sideways and back toward the socket rather than firing in one direction. That makes it suitable for table lamps, open shades and ceiling fixtures where you'd previously used a frosted incandescent. It can also be mounted in any burning position, base up, base down or horizontal.
5) Is this Satco bulb DLC listed for a utility rebate?
No. The S29838 is not DLC approved, so it won't qualify under rebate programs that require a DesignLights Consortium listing. It is FCC compliant for electromagnetic interference.
6) How many of these Satco 9.8W LEDs can I put on one 15A lighting circuit?
Each S29838 draws 0.082 amps at 120V. Even derating a 15A circuit to a continuous 12A, the lamp load itself is a very small fraction of the circuit, so bulb count is rarely the limiting factor on a relamp. Size the circuit to the fixtures and any driver or ballast loads already on it.
7) How long will these Satco A19 LEDs last before maintenance has to relamp?
Average rated life is 25,000 hours. On a common-area fixture burning roughly 12 hours a day that works out to about 5.7 years before rated end of life, which is why 4000K A19 LEDs like this one are a standard standardization choice across a multi-family or facility relamp.
8) What is the Satco S29838 bulb made of, and how heavy is it?
Construction is metal and plastic, with a polystyrene frosted lens rather than glass, and the lamp weighs 0.06 lb. The plastic envelope means it won't shatter like a glass bulb if it drops during a relamp, which matters in occupied units and food service areas.
