Satco Lighting S8688 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Satco S8688 LED work on a 120V circuit, or does it need a transformer?
No, it will not run on line voltage. The S8688 is a 12 volt lamp and runs on either 12V AC or 12V DC, so it needs a 12V supply, typically a low voltage transformer or driver on landscape, step light, or cabinet circuits. Current draw is 0.250A at 3W, which is what you use to total up a run against the transformer's VA rating.
2) Can I use the Satco S8688 in an outdoor landscape or step light fixture?
It carries a damp location rating, so it is suitable for covered outdoor use such as soffits, covered step lights, and sheltered path fittings. It is not wet location rated, so keep it out of fixtures subject to direct rain or standing water. It is also enclosed rated, meaning a sealed lens housing with no ventilation is acceptable.
3) Is this 12V bayonet LED dimmable, and does it work on a low voltage dimmer?
The lamp itself is dimmable. On a 12 volt system the dimming behavior depends on the transformer and dimmer being matched for low voltage LED loads, since a 3W lamp draws only 0.250A and may fall under a magnetic transformer's minimum load. For a single lamp on a dimmed circuit, confirm the driver handles the low wattage.
4) Can this LED be installed base up or sideways in a horizontal fixture?
Burning position is universal, so base up, base down, or horizontal are all acceptable. That matters in step lights and wall recesses where the socket orientation is fixed by the housing and you cannot choose how the lamp sits.
5) Will the S8688 match the color of the other warm white lamps in my building?
Color temperature is fixed at 3000K warm white with a CRI of 80. It is not a CCT selectable lamp, so there is no field switch to change the color. If the rest of your fixtures are 2700K, this will read slightly cooler next to them; standardizing a whole run on 3000K avoids a mismatch.
6) Does this Satco miniature LED qualify for California Title 24 work?
Yes, the S8688 is listed as Title 24 compliant, which is the specification line California projects ask for. It is also FCC compliant. It is not DLC listed, so it will not satisfy utility rebate programs that require a DLC qualified product number.
7) What is the exact part number to order this 3W 12V bayonet LED, and is there more than one version?
Order Satco S8688. There is one configuration: 3W LED, 3000K, frosted T4 envelope, single contact bayonet base, 12V AC/DC. No other finish, wattage, or color temperature is offered under that number, so distributors specifying it do not need a suffix.
