As the metal dome reflects the light back into the room, it is best suited next to a living room armchair, above a sideboard, or along a narrow dining table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeneral installation rule: above a living room seat, position the bottom of the dome around 1.80 m above the floor, so that a standing person cannot see the bulb directly under the shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial, finish and maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything is made of metal, including the shade, which sets Ray apart from models with glass diffusers: there are no fragile parts to handle when cleaning. Wipe the outside with a dry cloth. With the gold finish, wipe in one direction to avoid circular marks; on the black finish, dust is more noticeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBulb and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRay takes an E27 bulb, not included, and according to the manufacturer, accepts an LED, incandescent or fluorescent bulb. The maximum permitted wattage is not provided. The light fixture is hardwired and requires assembly; the manufacturer recommends having the installation carried out by an electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the IP 20 rating mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt indicates protection against solid objects, but no protection against water. Ray is therefore a light fixture for dry indoor spaces: living rooms, bedrooms, and dining rooms. Avoid bathrooms, laundry rooms, and any outdoor location, even covered, where ambient moisture may eventually reach the metal and socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan it be used with a dimmer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer states that it is not dimmable in its technical specifications. Do not therefore rely on a wall dimmer with this model. If you want to adjust the ambiance, choose an E27 bulb with a warm color temperature around 2700 K and pair it with another light source in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBlack or gold: which should you choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGold warms the light by reflecting it off the inner surface of the dome and stands out against a light-colored wall. Black makes the light fixture blend in during the day and accentuates the contrast when it is turned on. The shape, socket, and protection rating are identical: only the surface finish differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the arm adjustable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer does not describe any articulation mechanism and states that the cable is not adjustable. Therefore, consider the curve to be fixed: the direction of the beam is determined when drilling the hole. For lighting that needs to be redirected daily, choose a model with an adjustable arm or swivel head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor more\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare the metals in \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/applique-murale\"\u003eour selection of wall lights\u003c\/a\u003e.
