Satco Lighting S9986 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How bright is the 3.5W S9986 compared to the 40 watt bulbs I'm replacing?
Rated at 300 lumens on 3.5 watts, it is the equivalent of a 40W incandescent candle bulb. Current draw is 0.029A, so a chandelier with a dozen of these pulls well under half an amp. Note the light is amber at 2000K, so it will read much warmer and more orange than a clear 40W lamp, not a like-for-like color match.
2) Can I put this amber LED filament bulb on a dimmer?
Yes, the S9986 is a dimmable LED filament lamp. It is not a three-way bulb, so it will not step through levels in a three-way socket.
3) Is this bulb safe to use in a closed fixture or a covered outdoor porch light?
It's an enclosed rated lamp, so it can go in a sealed or covered fixture where many LEDs aren't permitted. Location rating is damp, which covers a covered porch, bathroom or canopy, but not a wet location with direct rain exposure. It can also be installed in any orientation, base up or base down.
4) What does the 2000K amber lamp actually look like in a restaurant or hotel lobby fixture?
At 2000K with a transparent amber glass lens, the S9986 gives the warm orange glow of an old carbon filament or gaslight, well below the 2700K of a typical soft white. The visible LED filament is the effect, so it suits exposed chandeliers, cage fixtures and open-globe sconces in hospitality spaces. CRI is 80, adequate for ambience but not for spaces where color accuracy matters.
5) Does this Satco candle bulb light in all directions or just forward?
Beam spread is 360 degrees, so the filament throws light evenly around the lamp. That matters in a chandelier or open sconce where the bulb is seen from every side; there's no dark back side the way there is with a chip-on-board LED candle.
6) What shape is the S9986 and will it look right in a chandelier with exposed bulbs?
The S9986 is a C11 torpedo candle shape in glass, with the filament visible through the amber body. C11 is a slim, tapered decorative candle profile, so it reads as a traditional chandelier lamp rather than a bulky retrofit.
7) Does the Satco S9986 count toward California Title 24 lighting compliance?
Yes, it is listed as Title 24 compliant and FCC compliant. It is not DLC listed, so it won't qualify for utility rebate programs that require a DLC listing.
8) How often will maintenance have to relamp these in a hotel or multi-family common area?
Average rated life on the S9986 is 15,000 hours. On a lobby or corridor fixture running roughly 12 hours a day that's about three and a half years between changes. If you're standardizing a building, note it's a fixed 2000K amber lamp with no CCT selection, so every fixture will match without anyone setting a switch.
