Satco Lighting S8638 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is a 15 degree beam too narrow for general room lighting?
Yes, for general ambient light it is. The S8638 puts out a 15 degree spot beam, which is meant for accenting artwork, merchandise, signage, or washing a single architectural feature from a distance. For spreading light across a room or lobby, use a wider flood beam MR16 instead.
2) What does 4000K look like compared to the halogen MR16s I am replacing?
4000K is a neutral, slightly cool white, noticeably crisper than the 2700K to 3000K warm light of a standard halogen MR16. If you are relamping a hotel lobby or a residential space mixed with warm halogens, the S8638 will read as whiter next to them. It suits retail displays, offices and task accenting where a clean white is wanted.
3) How much wattage do I save swapping a halogen MR16 for the Satco S8638?
The S8638 draws 8 watts on the 12V side. Typical halogen MR16 lamps run 35W to 50W, so a fleet relamp cuts the load on each existing low voltage transformer substantially. Check that your transformer will still operate correctly at the much lower load, since some magnetic and electronic transformers have a minimum wattage requirement.
