Cordless design with compact battery and 1200 lumens
The Free 1200 S is designed for trail running, roller skiing and cross-country skiing. In a cordless design, it combines 1200 lumens to illuminate dark forest paths with a powerful S battery (24.1 Wh) that is light enough to wear on your head, with burn time for distance workouts. To extend the burn time, switch down to the super low mode of 80 lumens on uphill slopes and keep the battery warm in cold conditions. Roller skiers can purchase the Free Helmet Mount Kit to mount the headlamp to their helmet.
This is included in the Free 1200 S:
• Lamp unit 1200 lumens
• Headband
• 24.1 Wh battery (S)
• USB-C charging cable
Silva Free – more freedom with the world's first modular headlamp
Silva Free is the world's first modular headlamp, designed to give you more comfort, more light and more flexibility. Silva's Free technology means that all cables are integrated into the headband, so you don't have to worry about distracting wires. The modular design with interchangeable lamp units, batteries and mounts means you can easily adapt your Free to different activities.
With Airflow technology, the lamp gets optimized cooling for higher performance regardless of activity, even when airflow is not optimal. All Free headlamps feature Silva Intelligent Light – a dual beam that combines focused distance light and wide light at close range. This results in less head movement and a better overview of the terrain, giving you better balance and greater confidence so you can maintain a higher speed.
The Silva Free series won the ISPO Award 2023 with the justification: "A modular headlamp is great if you are a multi-sport enthusiast with different needs. The Silva Free series is lightweight, but at the same time offers powerful light and multiple mounting brackets."
Upgrade your Free lamp for more activities
Want to avoid carrying the battery on your head? Buy an extension cable and put it in your pocket. Since all parts in the modular Free series are interchangeable, you can easily adapt your Free to more activities by adding a light unit, instead of buying another headlamp. Choose from three light units, four batteries and mounting kits for helmet, bike or GoPro mount.
