Satco Lighting S9494 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What incandescent MR16 does the 6.5W Satco S9494 replace?
It is built as a 50W halogen MR16 replacement, drawing 6.5 watts and putting out 500 lumens. Current draw is 0.542A at 12V, so when you are sizing or reloading a magnetic transformer, count the actual amps rather than the 50W equivalency number.
2) Can the Satco S9494 MR16 go in a fully enclosed fixture?
Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed or gasketed fixtures are fine. Location rating is damp, which covers covered exteriors, soffits, and bathrooms, but not direct rain or sprinkler exposure. Burning position is universal, so base up, base down, or horizontal all work.
3) Will 5000K match the other MR16s already installed in my building?
Only if those lamps are also 5000K. The S9494 is 5000K, a cool daylight white, and it will read noticeably blue next to 2700K or 3000K halogen or warm LED lamps in the same room. CRI is 80. If you are relamping in stages, do a full room or a full run at a time so the color break falls at a wall rather than mid-ceiling.
4) Is a 25 degree beam angle right for accent lighting, or should I look at a wider flood?
25 degrees is a narrow flood. It throws a defined pool of light, which is what you want on artwork, retail merchandise, signage, or a display case. For general room fill or evenly washing a ceiling grid of cans, a wider beam MR16 will space better and avoid scallops and hot spots.
5) Is this Satco MR16 dimmable on my existing low voltage dimmer?
The lamp is dimmable. Performance depends on the transformer and dimmer pairing, which is the usual failure point on 12V LED retrofits, so if you are relamping a whole building it is worth testing one head on the existing dimmer and transformer before ordering the full quantity.
6) Is the Satco S9494 MR16 DLC listed for a utility rebate?
It is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify for rebate programs that require a DLC listing. It is also not BAA compliant, which matters if you are buying for a federally funded project with domestic sourcing requirements.
7) How long do these MR16 lamps last compared to the halogens I am pulling out?
Rated average life is 25,000 hours. For a common area or retail display running roughly 12 hours a day, that is several years between relamps, versus the frequent ladder trips a halogen MR16 demands. That labor saving is usually the bigger number on a property management budget than the wattage drop from 50W to 6.5W.
8) Does this Satco MR16 come in other color temperatures or a selectable CCT version?
No. The S9494 is a fixed 5000K lamp with no CCT selection switch, and it ships in one configuration with a gray housing and a clear lens. If you need warm white, you need a different Satco MR16 part number.
9) Is the S9494 lensed, or is it an open LED array?
It has a clear lens over the LED, so you get a finished glass-front look in the fixture aperture rather than exposed diodes. That is worth knowing on open-aperture track heads and display cases where the lamp face is visible.
