SILVA EXCEED 2 AND FLOW LIGHT
Thank you for choosing Silva Exceed 2 headlamp. This headlamp can, thanks to the modular
design, also be used on a helmet or a bike handle bar.
Exceed 2 is equipped with
Flow Light
which is a light distribution technology that combines
a wide-angle flood light with a long reach spot light. If you aim the light beam of the Exceed 2
close to your feet by rotating the light body downward, the light image will be a wide flood light
adapted for slower activities. If you aim the light higher up, further away, the light image will
gradually transform into a long-distance spot beam, perfect for higher speed.
This unique feature gives the user peripheral or long distance vision depending on the activ-
ity or speed. For a runner, cross country skier, mountain biker or night orienteer this translates
into less head movement, increased control, better balance and more speed
