Product details
Silva Headlamp Explore 4: Perfect visibility near and far. The Silva Headlamp Explore 4 offers versatile functions for orienteering with its variable adjustment options. For always perfect visibility, the powerful lamp is equipped with Intelligent Light technology, which combines a wide-angle floodlight with a far-reaching spotlight. This allows for peripheral vision and long-distance sight simultaneously. The runner has 3 different lighting modes to choose from: White for up to 350 lumens, Red for optimal night vision, and Orange for reading maps.
Maximum comfort in any situation. Lightweight materials provide a pleasant wearing experience for the runner. The wide, non-slip headband can be individually adjusted to fit the head circumference of each wearer. Alternatively, it can also be attached with a clip to a belt or backpack. The waterproof design allows for use when crossing bodies of water and in the rain. Even in cold and snowy conditions, this headlamp offers the highest operational comfort, as the large on/off button can be easily pressed even with gloves. When switched on in the storage bag, the lamp can also serve as a pleasant pause light.
Optimal readiness for use. With 3 alkaline batteries, depending on the selected brightness mode, a burn time of between 55 and 120 hours can be achieved. This makes the lamp well-suited for longer distances. When turned off, an LED at the front of the headlamp indicates the battery status and ensures optimal readiness for use. This indicator remains active for 3 seconds and shows either green light (good battery status), orange light (medium battery status), or red light (fresh batteries required).

The Explore 4Rc is by far the lightest lamp in this overview. This is very pleasant to feel on the head. Its 400-lumen light output appears very bright in practice and is also available permanently (not only in boost mode). The light cone is also good. You have to get used to the side operation.
