Aspects:
+ Weight distribution by splitting indispensable components (battery, lamp)
+ Infinitely adjustable tilt luminaire with convincing fixed seat (still good + slightly readjusted if necessary)
+ Short-range anti-glare (eg heart rate monitor)
+ Pleasant soft light
+/- Setting up is a bit strange fiddly
Just (put Zopfknoten deeper ...) +/- able battery compartment for Zopfträger feasible
- Front panel and side buckle push something (with welding / headband egalisierbar without wärs me uncomfortable)
- Price
Woks against the also interesting Petzl Tikka XP2 end up surprising the Silva preference, although the Petzl 30g lighter and another 15 "cheaper" is: When Petzl I felt their in effect but higher luminous body weight forward but then as disturbing, the tilt angle is 1 .) limited by detents and ends 2) up too early - I had my head frequently lift something, and besides, I suspected a strong Leuchteistungsabfall in too short a time: According to the data, the Petzl in its domain creates (beam range) their max.68m only 30min long and then reichts for 50m still 10h; the Silva creates lt. datasheet Although only 45m which then supposedly equal but adequate 30h ...
Conclusion: Great concept, but 1 star deduction for light detail deficiencies in the really high price.
Nevertheless, strong buy recommendation.
