SATCO Lighting S9281 3W, LED, MR11, 3000K, 25 degree beam spread, 25000 Avg Rated Hours, 210 Lumens, GU4 Base, 12V AC/DC

The S9281 runs on 12 volts, AC or DC, at 60Hz, drawing 0.250A. That covers a standard magnetic or electronic 12V low-voltage supply feeding an MR11 fixture. It will not run on 120V line voltage, so if the socket is fed direct from the branch circuit, this is the wrong lamp.

No. The 3W S9281 is non-dimmable. On a dimming circuit expect flicker, buzz, or no start at all, and possible damage to the driver or the dimmer. If the display case or accent run is dimmed, specify a dimmable MR11 instead.

Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed or gasketed fixtures are fine, and it can be mounted in any burning position, base up, base down, or horizontal. Location rating is damp and indoor, so covered damp areas are acceptable but direct wet exposure or unprotected outdoor landscape use is not.

A 25 degree spread is a narrow flood: tight enough to put a defined pool of light on artwork, retail merchandise, or a display case shelf without washing the whole wall. If you want general fill or wall grazing across a wide surface, you want a wider beam angle; for picking out a single object, 25 degrees is the working range.

The S9281 is fixed at 3000K warm white, with a CRI of 80. It is not a color-selectable lamp, so what you order is what you get. If the adjacent cans or track heads are 2700K they will read noticeably warmer side by side, and 4000K will read cooler. For merchandise or artwork where color rendering matters more than 80 CRI delivers, step up to a higher CRI MR11.

No, the S9281 is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify under a DLC-based utility incentive program. It is FCC compliant. If your rebate paperwork requires a DLC listed ID, this lamp will not clear it.

It has a clear lens over the LED, in a white housing. The clear lens keeps the beam crisp for accent work rather than diffusing it, so you get a defined edge on the 25 degree pool instead of a soft one.
