It’s horses for courses with outdoor gear, isn’t it? If you’re just using your head torch for camping or dog-walking, you probably don’t need a super-expensive mobile spotlight that you could use to signal container ships 15 miles offshore. In fact, you probably need the Seek 320. This reliable little torch puts out 320 lumens with an 82-metre beam, and Silva’s Intelligent Light system combines a long-reach spotlight with a close flood beam so you get both distance and peripheral vision. It’s got three brightness levels plus a 10-lumen super-low mode that stretches burn time to a remarkable 110 hours. The hybrid battery system is a nice touch – it runs on either standard AAA batteries or Silva’s rechargeable Hybrid battery, so you’ve always got a backup option.

It's a bit of a cliché to say, 'this brand needs no introduction…', but sometimes it really doesn't. If you ever did scouts, guides or cadets, got epic blisters on a D of E expedition or went on an outward bounds residential, chances are you did it with a Silva compass in the pocket of your boil-in-the-bag cagoule.
Like so many world-changing inventions, the Silva compass began as a problem that needed solving. Back in the day, your standard compass wobbled all over the shop, making it tricky and time-consuming to get a decent reading. That is, until 1933, when four Swedes invented a liquid-filled compass. The resistance from the fluid slowed and stabilised the needle, meaning you could nail a reliable bearing in seconds. Navigation was never the same again.
But iconic as the compasses are, they're only one part of the Silva story. They were one of the first companies to make reliable electric head torches for the outdoors, and they've also branched out into optics, trekking kit and other navigational gear. Tried and tested for the better part of a century, Silva's precision instruments have literally been the difference between life and death for generations of outdoor adventurers – and as brand pedigree goes, that's pretty much impossible to beat.
