The Silva Light
THE SILVA LIGHT
LET US BROADEN YOUR PERSPECTIVE
The technology behind SILVA’s light sources is actually rather uncomplicated. Instead of just focusing on the technical aspect of light, we look through the human eye; aiming to create light beams that are adapted to how your eyes work in the dark. This will give you an optimized light for your activity. And this is what we call SILVA Intelligent Light ®.
All SILVA headlamps are also designed to widen your perspective – in several aspects. The optics in all our headlamps are designed for you to avoid tunnel vision and sharp contrasts by creating a fading transition from light to darkness.
All in all, this light technology results in less head movement, better control, improved balance, a widened field of view, less fatigue, higher speed and offers a more pleasant experience for the eye.
WHAT IS THE RIGHT LIGHT FOR YOU?
We believe that the right headlamp for you is the one giving you perfect conditions in the dark, the one fitting your activity, and the one having just the right burn time. Which one you choose depends on your specific activities, needs and preferences.
LOOK BEYOND THE COMPLEXITY OF LUMEN
When measuring Lumen, there is no global standard scale. Also, as Lumen only measures power, it will not give you all the information you need when choosing a headlamp. Instead, your choice should be affected by other factors such as the lamp’s size and weight as well as how long its battery time is. Last, but definitely not least; the third, and most important factor is what kind of activity you are heading for as different activities require different amounts of Lumen
TRUE LUMEN
To measure Lumen, we use the most reliable method currently available: TRUE LUMEN (according to the ANSI/NEMA FL1 flashlight basic performance standard). The specified Lumen values are measured 30 seconds after switching the lamp on, to ensure that it reflects the light quality you experience out there in the dark.
SILVA INTELLIGENT LIGHT
CREATING LIGHT IMAGES
SILVA Intelligent Light ® is a double light beam technology featured in all SILVA headlamps. The unique combination of a long reach spotlight and a close flood-light results in less head movement, better control, improved balance, less fatigue and higher speed.
SILVA FLOW LIGHT – A FEATURE FOR MULTI-ATHLETES
SILVA Flow Light is an ingenious feature that gives you several versions of SILVA Intelligent Light ® in the same headlamp. Developed for multi-activity users, it enable seamless tuning of the light image for different activities by simply tilting the light up or down. When pointed downwards, the light beam becomes wider and optimised for slower activities. Pointed forward, the light beam gets longer and optimised for faster activities.
