Overview

MISTU is a wall light designed for outdoor use. It mounts directly onto the wall and provides clean, even light thanks to the opal PMMA diffuser. It is a lamp designed for those looking for a simple and durable lighting solution for the exterior of their home.

It works well at entrances, terraces, gardens and facades. The wall light distributes light evenly, with no dark spots or annoying glare. The dark grey aluminium body withstands outdoor conditions well and requires no special maintenance.

FARO is a Spanish brand with years of experience in the design of indoor and outdoor luminaires. Their products combine functionality and contemporary aesthetics, designed to integrate effortlessly into different types of spaces.

Installation and specifications

To install this wall light, you need a recessed box or a cable outlet on the exterior wall. It is fixed directly onto the vertical surface. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician, as it involves connection to the mains. Before starting, make sure to cut the power at the electrical panel. The wall light accepts an E27 LED bulb of up to 15 W, which is not included and must be purchased separately.

To clean the aluminium body, use a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the dark grey finish. The opal diffuser can be cleaned in the same way. Do not direct pressurised water jets directly onto the lamp. Periodically check that the fixing screws are tight, especially after periods of wind or heavy rain.

Design and use

The MISTU wall light by FARO has a straight-lined design with a compact volume that makes it easy to integrate into different types of facades. Its dark grey finish works well with concrete and stone walls as well as more modern cladding. It does not draw too much attention during the day, but fulfils its function when night falls.

The body is made of aluminium, a material that holds up well against continuous exposure to sun, rain and temperature changes. It does not rust easily and maintains its appearance for years without the need for touch-ups. It is a wall light designed to stay in place without causing problems.

The opal PMMA diffuser is one of the elements that most influences light quality. This material disperses the light from the bulb evenly, preventing the bright point of the bulb from being visible. The result is a soft light that illuminates the surroundings without bothering the eyes. It is especially useful at entrances where people pass close to the light source or on terraces where time is spent outdoors at night.

The lamp uses an E27 socket, the most common on the market. This means it is easy to find a compatible LED bulb without having to look for special formats. With a maximum power of 15 W it is sufficient to adequately illuminate an entrance, a garden side or access to a terrace.

The wall light measures 220 mm high, 180 mm wide and 190 mm deep. These are balanced dimensions, neither too large nor too small. It adapts well to spaces such as the entrance of a single-family home, the side of a garage, an inner courtyard or the perimeter wall of a garden. It can also be used on either side of a front door, placing two wall lights symmetrically to achieve a more visually ordered effect.

Although the design is contemporary, the grey finish and compact shape of the light allow it to fit into very different environments. On a modern-style facade it is consistent with the usual materials. In a more traditional home, the wall light goes unnoticed without generating excessive contrast. It is a neutral option that does not impose a specific style.

Installing a compatible external motion sensor can be a good idea if you want the lamp to only operate when there is movement nearby. The wall light itself does not incorporate a motion sensor, but as it is a standard mains-connected luminaire, it supports external control solutions. In this way, the detector can activate the light automatically without needing to replace the wall light.

In areas where the sun shines directly onto the wall for hours, aluminium and PMMA are materials that respond well to that sun exposure without deteriorating quickly. The structure of the wall light is designed to withstand the usual outdoor conditions in Europe.

Questions and answers

Is the E27 LED bulb included with the MISTU wall light?

No, the light source is not included. It is necessary to purchase separately a bulb with an E27 LED socket of up to 15 W. As it is a standard format, it can easily be found in any lighting or electrical store.

Does the opal diffuser on the wall light reduce glare on the terrace?

Yes. The opal PMMA diffuser disperses light evenly, so the bright point of the bulb is not visible. This makes the lamp more pleasant on the eyes, especially in spaces where people are close to the wall light, such as a terrace or an entrance.

Is this wall light compatible with an external motion sensor system?

The MISTU wall light does not incorporate an integrated motion sensor. However, as it operates with a standard mains connection between 100V and 240V, it can be combined with a compatible external detector that controls the automatic switching on of the luminaire.
