SATCO Lighting S8534 9W LED PL 2-Pin, 5000K -1000 Lumens, G24d Base, 50000 Avg Rated Hours, Horizontal, Type B, Ballast Bypass

No. The S8534 is a Type B ballast bypass lamp, direct wire only at 100V-277V. The existing CFL ballast has to be removed or bypassed and line voltage wired to the sockets before the lamp will work. Leave the ballast in the circuit and the lamp will not operate. If you want a plug-and-play lamp that runs off the existing ballast, this is the wrong part.

It uses a G24d 2-pin base, which is the 2-pin socket used by 13W, 18W and 26W twin-tube CFLs. If your sockets are G24q (4-pin), the S8534 will not seat. Check the pin count at the socket first, then confirm the ballast can be removed since this lamp is direct wire only.

Yes. The S8534 is specified for horizontal burning position, so it is intended for fixtures where the lamp lies on its side, such as wall sconces and many downlight cans with horizontal sockets. In a vertical socket the 120 degree beam will be thrown sideways rather than down.

It is an enclosed rated lamp, so a sealed or gasketed fixture is acceptable, and it carries a damp location rating. That covers bathrooms, covered entries and soffits. It is not rated for wet locations with direct water exposure.

No, it is a non-dimming lamp, and it is not a three-way lamp either. Put it on a dimmer circuit and you risk flicker or premature failure. For dimmed areas, leave the circuit switched full on or specify a dimmable lamp instead.

1000 lumens at 9 watts, listed as a 40W incandescent equivalent, with a CRI of 82 and a frosted lens to soften the source. In practice it is the swap for a 13W to 18W twin-tube CFL in the same G24d socket.

The S8534 is a fixed 5000K daylight lamp, not color selectable, so what you see is what you get. 5000K reads crisp and blue-white, common in garages, stairwells, laundry and back-of-house. If your other fixtures are 3000K or 4000K, this one will look noticeably cooler beside them, so standardize the whole area on one color temperature.

Yes. Direct wire input is 120V-277V at 50/60Hz, so the same lamp covers 120V residential and 277V commercial branch circuits. Current draw is 0.075-0.032A across that voltage range, the higher figure at the low end of the voltage.

Neither. It is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify where a utility program requires a DLC listed product, and it is not BAA compliant, which rules it out of federal work carrying a Buy American requirement. It is FCC compliant and lawful for sale in California.

Rated 50,000 average hours. On a 12 hour daily burn in a corridor or stairwell that is roughly 11 years of service, which is the main argument for converting the sockets to direct wire once rather than continuing to replace CFLs and ballasts.
