Satco Lighting S9873 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Satco S9873 amber LED bulb fit a standard candelabra socket?
Yes. The S9873 uses a candelabra base, the small screw base found in chandeliers, sconces, and decorative fixtures. It runs on 120V at 60Hz, so it drops into standard North American line-voltage candelabra sockets with no adapter or driver.
2) How bright is a 2.5W amber T6 LED filament bulb, and what incandescent does it replace?
It puts out 150 lumens at 2.5 watts, equal to a 15W incandescent. That is decorative light, not task light. At 2000K with a transparent amber lens it reads as a warm vintage glow, so plan on it for ambiance in chandeliers, restaurant fixtures, or lobby sconces rather than for lighting a work area.
3) Can I put the Satco S9873 in an enclosed fixture?
Yes, it is an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed jars, globes, and lanterns are fine. It also carries a damp location rating, which covers covered porches, bathrooms, and canopies. Damp is not wet, so keep it out of fixtures with direct rain or spray exposure.
4) Is this amber candelabra LED dimmable?
Yes, the S9873 is dimmable. One caution for a retrofit: at 2.5W and 0.021A draw, a handful of these on an old incandescent dimmer may fall under the dimmer's minimum load and flicker or drop out at the bottom of the range. An LED-rated dimmer sized for low loads solves it.
5) Will this amber LED match the 2700K bulbs already in my building?
No, it will not match. The S9873 runs 2000K, noticeably warmer and more orange than a typical 2700K soft white, and the lens is transparent amber rather than clear or frosted. If you are relamping a fixture where several bulbs are visible together, change them all at once or the mismatch shows. The color temperature is fixed, not selectable.
6) How many of these can I put on one 15 amp circuit?
Each lamp draws 0.021A at 120V, so the load per bulb is negligible. Even at the conservative 80 percent continuous limit of a 15A branch circuit (12A usable), the practical ceiling is in the hundreds of lamps. On a large property retrofit, the fixture and control wiring limits are what you plan around, not the lamp load.
7) Can this bulb be mounted base up or sideways in a sconce?
Burning position is universal, so base up, base down, or horizontal all work. That matters for candelabra fixtures, where wall sconces run base up and chandelier arms often angle the socket.
8) Does this bulb throw light in all directions or just forward?
It is a 360 degree beam spread. Being an LED filament lamp in a T6 tubular glass envelope, the filaments are visible through the amber glass and light comes off the whole tube, so there is no dark side when the bulb sits exposed in an open chandelier or a clear-glass fixture.
9) What is the rated life on the Satco S9873, and how does that affect relamping schedules?
Rated at 15,000 hours. On a hospitality or lobby fixture running 12 hours a day that is roughly 3.4 years before a planned group relamp. For decorative fixtures that need a lift or scaffold to reach, that cycle is usually what justifies the switch off incandescent candelabra lamps.
10) Does this Satco LED qualify for a DLC utility rebate?
No. The S9873 is not DLC approved, so it will not qualify under DesignLights Consortium rebate programs. It is FCC compliant for electromagnetic interference. If a rebate is driving the project, a decorative 2000K amber filament lamp is generally the wrong place to look for one.
11) Is the color rendering on this amber lamp good enough for a restaurant or retail space?
CRI is 80. That is standard commercial rendering, fine for ambient and decorative use in dining rooms and hospitality. Keep in mind the amber lens itself shifts how colors read regardless of CRI, so for merchandise display or anywhere true color matters, use a clear lamp at a higher color temperature instead.
12) Will this work in a three-way lamp socket?
Not as a three-way lamp. The S9873 is single-level output only. Put it in a three-way socket and you get one brightness step, not three. For dimming, use the dimmable function on a compatible dimmer instead.
13) Can I sell or install this bulb in California?
Yes. The S9873 is marked lawful for sale in California, so it meets the state's lamp regulations for retail and installation there.
