Overview

This outdoor wall light from the brand FARO is designed for those looking for a lamp that works well on facades, entrances, terraces, or any outdoor area where light is needed without sacrificing a refined appearance. The wall light emits light both upward and downward at the same time, creating a decorative effect on the wall without relying on a single point of illumination. It is not just a functional lamp: it also visually changes the appearance of the wall on which it is mounted.

The body is made of aluminum in a dark grey color, a finish that does not draw excessive attention but fits easily on stone, concrete, or modern cladding facades. The transparent glass diffuser allows light to pass through without distorting it. It is a discreet solution that fulfills its function without dominating the space.

FARO is a brand with a long history in lighting, recognized for combining careful design with materials suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Installation and specifications

To install this wall light on an exterior wall, it is necessary to have a recessed box or a cable outlet directly on the surface. The wall light is fixed to the wall with screws. Before starting the installation, make sure to cut the power from the electrical panel. If you do not have experience with electrical installations, it is recommended to seek the help of an electrician. The lamp operates at 220V–240V, which is the standard voltage in European homes, so no special adapter is needed.

For maintenance of the wall light, simply clean the aluminum surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. The glass diffuser can be cleaned in the same way to maintain its transparency. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that may damage the body's finish. Do not handle the lamp while the power is connected.

Design and use

The FARO wall light has a compact format that makes it suitable for spaces where a bulky luminaire is not desired. With a height of 140 mm and only 40 mm in depth, it sits close to the wall without protruding too much. This makes it a good option for entrances with limited space, outdoor corridors, or any wall where a larger lamp would be excessive.

The aluminum structure makes the fixture lightweight while also being resistant to the passage of time. Aluminum does not oxidize as easily as other materials, making it especially suitable for outdoor installations. The dark grey color of the body integrates well with materials such as concrete, natural stone, or matte cladding. It does not stand out excessively during the day, and at night it fulfills its role without being visually aggressive.

The transparent glass diffuser works together with the COB-type LED source to distribute light cleanly. The beam exits in two directions — upward and downward — bathing the wall surface rather than projecting a single point of light. This creates a decorative lighting effect that can change the atmosphere of a facade, a terrace, or the entrance to a home. The color temperature of 3000K produces a warm light, similar to that of a traditional bulb, which feels welcoming without being too yellow.

On a terrace, the wall light can be placed at the height that best illuminates the walkway without causing glare. On a facade, several wall lights distributed at regular intervals create uniform illumination along the wall. It also works well in gardens, especially when you want to highlight an architectural element such as a pillar or a stone wall. The included 6 W LED source is sufficient for this type of application without generating high energy consumption.

Although it is not a wall light with a motion sensor, it can easily be connected to an external detector if that function is desired. In installations where it is combined with a sensor, movement activates the lamp automatically, which is practical for entrances or infrequently used passageways. The warm light emitted by the wall light is also compatible with garden installations where a more tranquil atmosphere is sought at sunset. Since it does not rely on solar energy, its operation is constant and does not vary depending on weather conditions.

The wall light adapts well to contemporary environments, but can also fit in spaces with a more sober or utilitarian character. Its clean, unadorned format makes it versatile. Whether in a single-family home, an apartment building, or a commercial premises with an outdoor entrance, this wall light fulfills its function in a discreet and lasting manner.

Questions and answers

Is the COB LED light source included with the wall light or does it need to be purchased separately?

The light source is included. The wall light comes ready to connect, with the 6 W COB LED already incorporated.

Does the transparent glass diffuser affect the direction or intensity of the emitted light?

The diffuser allows light to pass through without filtering or dispersing it excessively. The beam is projected upward and downward onto the wall, as the wall light is designed, without the glass altering that behavior.

Is it possible to connect this wall light to an external motion sensor?

Yes, it can be connected to an external detector without any problem. The wall light does not incorporate a motion sensor natively, but it supports connection to one if installed in the corresponding electrical circuit.
