Product Overview
The Satco S28486 is a general-purpose LED A19 lamp built as a direct screw-in replacement for a 100W incandescent bulb, requiring no fixture modification. At CRI 90+, this lamp renders colors significantly more accurately than typical commodity LED lamps (often CRI 80 or lower), making it well suited for residential living spaces, retail display, and any application where natural-looking color rendition matters. The 220° beam angle approximates the broad, near-omnidirectional light spread of a traditional incandescent A19 bulb. At 4000K, this lamp produces a cool white light, brighter and more energizing in appearance than the warmer 2700K/3000K variants in the same 90 CRI family (S28652, S28653).
This lamp is dimmable on standard 120V phase-cut (Triac-style) dimmers commonly found in residential and light commercial installations — dimming compatibility is specified for 120V circuits only. The frost finish diffuses the LED light source for a softer visual appearance similar to a traditional frosted incandescent bulb. Rated for enclosed fixtures and damp locations, this lamp suits a wide range of standard residential and commercial fixture types. A GU24 base version of this same 4000K/90CRI spec is also available in this product family (S28488) for jurisdictions or fixtures requiring that base type.
Compatible Applications
- Residential general lighting — Table lamps, ceiling fixtures, and other standard A19 applications where high color accuracy is desired.
- Retail and hospitality lighting — High CRI and cool white CCT support accurate rendering of merchandise and interior finishes under brighter, more energizing light.
- Commercial task and office lighting — 4000K cool white suits applications where alertness and visual clarity are prioritized over warm ambiance.
- Enclosed fixtures — Rated for use in enclosed luminaires.
- Damp locations — Suitable for partially protected or periodically damp environments (not rated for direct wet/weather exposure).
- California Title 24/JA8 compliant projects — Meets California's high-efficacy lighting requirements for qualifying installations.
Before Ordering — Verify
- Dimmer Compatibility: If dimming, confirm your dimmer is a 120V phase-cut type.
- Existing Lamp Wattage: Confirm you are replacing a 100W incandescent A19 lamp.
- Color Temperature: Confirm 4000K cool white is correct — 2700K, 3000K, and 5000K variants exist in this same 90 CRI E26 family as separate item numbers (S28652, S28653, S28487).
- Base Type: Confirm fixture socket accepts a standard E26 medium base — a GU24 version (S28488) exists for fixtures requiring that base type.
- Location Rating: This lamp is rated for Damp locations, not Wet — confirm your installation environment matches this rating.
- Physical Fit: Confirm 4.65" MOL and 2.36" diameter fit within your fixture's lamp compartment.
- Case Quantity: Minimum order quantity is 24 units (1 case) with inner packs of 6.

- Allow Cooling: Allow the lamp to cool before handling or replacement.
