This A21 3-way lamp is typically specified for table lamps, floor lamps, and portable luminaires in offices, hospitality spaces, reception areas, and multifamily common areas where three discrete light levels are preferred without changing the fixture.
The lamp provides three output steps: 4W at 480 lumens, 8W at 800 lumens, and 16W at 1,600 lumens. This supports low-level ambient lighting, mid-level general lighting, and higher output for reading or task use in the same socket.
A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way socket and 3-way switch to access all three output levels. In a standard on/off socket, the lamp will not cycle through the three settings as intended.
The lamp is dimmable, but dimming performance depends on the control method and the fixture wiring. For a 3-way application, verify whether the lamp is intended to dim on each step using a compatible dimmer, or whether dimming is intended only in a standard socket configuration with an approved dimmer list.
2700K is commonly used in hospitality and lounge areas where a warm appearance is preferred. 3000K is often selected for reception areas and mixed-use spaces that need a warm-neutral tone. 4100K is typically used in office settings where a neutral white appearance is common. 5000K is often chosen for higher-visibility task use where a cooler appearance supports contrast and detail recognition.
CRI 80 supports reliable color rendering for everyday tasks such as reading printed materials and evaluating general finish colors in an office or residential-style environment. If the application involves color-critical work, confirm whether a higher CRI lamp is required.
The medium E26 base fits standard North American medium-base sockets. Confirm physical clearance in enclosed shades or tight harp setups using the lamp dimensions of 2.6 inches diameter by 4.9 inches height.
Energy Star certification indicates the lamp meets program requirements for efficiency and performance. This can be relevant for projects or procurement standards that reference Energy Star-labeled lamps.
The lamp is rated for 25,000 hours. Actual service life depends on operating hours, switching frequency, ambient temperature within the fixture, and voltage conditions on the circuit.
The lamp includes a 5-year warranty. For warranty administration, retain purchase documentation and record the installation location and quantity by area so failures can be tracked and replaced consistently.
