Overview

The NOBORU projector by FARO is an outdoor luminaire designed to illuminate facades, walls and vertical surfaces from the ground. It is installed directly on the ground and projects light upward, bathing the wall evenly and without glare. The result is a visually well-defined facade, with no shadow areas or excessively intense light spots.

This outdoor spotlight stands out for its compact construction and dark grey finish, which makes it discreet during the day and functional at night. The aluminum body and transparent glass diffuser ensure a durable projector that remains stable even under continuous outdoor use conditions. The included COB LED light source operates at 3000K, a warm temperature that gives illuminated surfaces a welcoming and natural tone.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in architectural and decorative lighting. Its products combine careful design with solid technical criteria, and are designed both for professional projects and for users who want to renovate their outdoor space with guarantees.

Installation and specifications

Preparation and installation: this projector is fixed to the ground by surface anchoring. Before installing, verify that the base where the spotlight will rest is stable and flat. As this is for outdoor use, the cable routing must be done with materials suitable for outdoor use and protected against moisture. If you have no experience with electrical installations, it is advisable to consult an electrician. Check that the voltage available in your installation is compatible with the equipment's 100V–240V range.

Use and maintenance: to clean the surface of the projector, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the aluminum finish. The glass diffuser can be cleaned with a soft cloth to maintain light transmission without interference. Do not handle the equipment while it is connected to the mains.

Design and use

The NOBORU projector has a low and well-resolved profile. Its dimensions, 177 mm high by 150 mm long and 150 mm deep, make it a compact spotlight that does not take up too much space in the garden and does not visually compete with the architecture it illuminates. The ground fixing allows the light beam to be directed straight at the facade, achieving that vertical wash effect that defines lines and textures without creating an aggressive or industrial-looking reflector.

The aluminum body provides resistance without adding excessive weight. It is a material that responds well to temperature changes and does not deteriorate with prolonged exposure to the outdoor environment. The dark grey finish integrates easily into environments with stone, concrete, brick or treated wood. During the day, the projector goes unnoticed; when night falls, its function becomes evident without ostentation.

The transparent glass diffuser allows light to pass through with minimal loss, contributing to efficient illumination with only 16 W of power. The included COB LED source operates at 3000K, a warm color temperature that adds warmth to stone or render surfaces, and moves away from the cold white that can sometimes feel too clinical in residential outdoor settings. This type of LED light is particularly suitable for facades where the texture of the building material is to be highlighted.

In terms of possible uses, the NOBORU projector works well as an accent spotlight at the entrance of a single-family home, as a visual signaling element along a garden path, or as part of a broader outdoor lighting scheme that combines different light points at varying heights. Installed at the edge of a patio, it can visually define the boundary wall without the need to place luminaires at height. On terraces with perimeter walls, the wash effect produced by this projector adds depth to the space and makes it usable at night.

The operating voltage, 100V–240V, makes it compatible with electrical installations in different countries, which is useful if you are planning a renovation that may involve changes to the electrical installation. The unit comes with the light source already included, so no additional components need to be purchased to get it up and running.

Placed on the ground, this projector can also act as a low-level reflector to illuminate dense vegetation, shrubs or trees near the facade. The warm light it emits at 3000K combines well with green tones and with wood, making it versatile for different compositions in the garden or in private outdoor spaces.

Questions and answers

Is the COB LED light source already included in the NOBORU projector or does it need to be purchased separately?

The COB LED light source is included with the projector. You do not need to purchase any additional components to install it and get it up and running.

Is the NOBORU projector compatible with 220V electrical installations?

Yes. The unit operates within a voltage range of 100V to 240V, making it compatible with standard domestic installations in Spain and most of Europe.

What kind of effect does the transparent glass diffuser produce on the emitted light?

The transparent glass diffuser allows light to pass through with minimal loss, maintaining the efficiency of the LED and projecting a defined beam toward the facade without excessive dispersion.
