Overview

PING is a wall light by FARO designed for those looking for a simple, clean lighting solution suitable for various spaces in the home. Thanks to its IP44 certification, this lamp withstands humid environments, making it a suitable option for bathrooms and areas where water is present. Even so, its understated design and matte white finish allow it to integrate just as well in a bedroom, living room, or hallway.

The spherical opal glass diffuser distributes light evenly, without concentrated bright spots. The result is soft lighting that does not strain the eyes and sets the ambiance of the space without drawing attention to itself. The lamp comes with an SMD LED already installed, so it is ready to connect from the very first moment.

FARO is a Spanish company with decades of experience in luminaire design. Its products combine functionality and aesthetics without complicating installation or daily use.

Installation and specifications

To install this wall light, a junction box or electrical outlet is required at the mounting point. Since the fixing is directly to the wall, it is advisable to mark the position carefully before drilling. The aluminum body is lightweight, so heavy-duty anchors are not required for standard plaster or brick surfaces. If installation is carried out in a bathroom, the safety zones defined by current electrical regulations must be observed. The connection must be made by a qualified electrician or a person with the appropriate technical knowledge.

To clean the lamp, simply use a soft, slightly damp cloth. The use of abrasive products or solvents is not recommended, as they can damage both the matte white finish of the body and the glass diffuser. Before cleaning, always disconnect the power supply. Do not directly wet the inside of the light or the connection points.

Design and use

The PING wall light by FARO starts from a very simple idea: an opal glass sphere on a white aluminum base. That simplicity is precisely what makes this lamp work in so many different contexts. It does not compete with other decorative elements in the space, but rather complements them.

The matte white aluminum body is both resistant and lightweight. It does not rust, does not deform, and maintains its finish over time. The opal glass diffuser is the element that defines how light is perceived in the room. Being opal, the glass filters the LED emission point and distributes the brightness evenly. This is especially useful in small spaces such as bathrooms or hallways, where direct, concentrated light can feel harsh or uncomfortable.

In the bathroom, the PING wall light fits both above the mirror and on a side wall. The IP44 protection ensures that the lamp works without problems in environments with steam and occasional splashes. It is a genuine alternative to bathroom-specific models, many of which sacrifice design for functionality. Here, both go hand in hand.

In the living room, this wall light can be used as ambient lighting or as a secondary light point next to a sofa or a bookshelf. The color temperature of 3000K produces a warm light, close to traditional incandescent light, that invites relaxation without giving a sense of coldness. A pair of symmetrical wall lights on the main living room wall creates an orderly and balanced effect.

In the bedroom, placed at nightstand height or slightly above, the wall light is a clear improvement over a table lamp. It frees up surface space and keeps the cable tucked away. The warm, diffused light is compatible with rest and reading without straining the eyes.

In the kitchen or dining room, PING can work as accent lighting or as a complement to a central lamp. In a dining room with neutral tones, the white finish of the wall light goes unnoticed during the day and provides discreet lighting at night. In a modern kitchen, the spherical design introduces a note of softness against the straight lines typical of that type of space.

Hallways are another environment where this wall light performs well. A well-placed light point in the hallway prevents the feeling of a dark corridor without the need for a complex installation. The compact size of PING, with just 100 mm in height and 108 mm in depth, allows it to be installed even in areas with little space between doors or frames.

Installation as a ceiling light is also possible, which broadens the mounting options depending on the electrical layout of each space. The included 7.8 W LED offers modest consumption for the level of lighting it provides.

Questions and answers

Can this lamp be installed inside the shower or directly above the sink?

The PING wall light has IP44 protection, meaning it is protected against water splashes from any direction. It can be installed in areas close to the sink or shower, but not inside the shower enclosure or in direct contact with water. Please consult local electrical regulations for the minimum distances required in bathrooms.

Does the lamp include the light source, or does it need to be purchased separately?

Yes, the SMD LED is already included. No additional bulb needs to be purchased. The wall light is ready to install and switch on directly.

Is it possible to mount this wall light on the ceiling instead of the wall?

Yes. The PING design allows it to be installed both as a wall light and as a ceiling light, depending on the needs of each space and the location of the available electrical point.
