SKU SF-AEGISMKXVII-CRI
The Solis Aegis MK-XVII is the flagship of the range: rebuilt with a reinforced shell, faster motors and brighter lights, and offered in four finishes from Classic Gold & Red to the all-black Dark Edition.
Compared with the MK-V it is about 12% lighter, twice as long on a set of batteries and noticeably quicker to open — the changes owners asked for.
Sharper eye and ear LEDs read better in daylight, and the remote changes the eye colour and switches each light on its own.
Classic Gold & Red, Silver & Red, Silver & Black and Dark Edition share the same shell, motors, lights and controls.

Overview
The Solis Aegis MK-XVII is the flagship of the range — a precise, 1:1 replica of the striking heart-plated armour helmet, rebuilt from the ground up on two years of feedback from MK-V and MK-L owners.
The shell is reinforced multi-layer ABS: stiffer panels, less flex and a smoother metallic finish, yet about 12% lighter than the MK-V at roughly 1,130 g. High-torque micro motors open the faceplate in about 1.2 seconds, and brighter eye and ear LEDs hold up in daylight.
Command it by voice, by the two touch sensors at the ears or by the five-button remote, which also changes the eye colour and switches the eye and side lights. Choose the finish that suits your shelf: Classic Gold & Red, Silver & Red, Silver & Black or the all-black Dark Edition.

Customer reviews
No jerking or grinding, it glides open in one movement.
Wore it in a warm room for an hour. Stayed clear.
1.3kg is noticeable after a while. The padding spreads it well but you know it's there.
Owned two of the cheaper models. The finish here is on another level.
Surprised me. Tapped the ear panel with winter gloves and it opened.
Eyes, side strips, chest — all independent. Looks great on camera.
It's larger than I pictured. Measure before you buy the display case.
Not the thin sticky pads other helmets ship with.
Worn on and off all weekend, nothing loosened or scratched.
And I've been buying these for six years.
Hand-finished shell, full LED array, touch and voice. It is a tier above the others.
No visible seams, no flashing, paint is even.
Different gestures do different things. Read the card that comes with it.
Three helmets on the shelf and this is the one people photograph.
You know it is not hollow the second you pick it up.
Bigger than it looks in photos. Measure your shelf.
Double boxed, foam inserts, no damage.
It is rebuilt: reinforced multi-layer ABS, about 12% lighter, roughly twice the battery life (about 8 h against 4 h), a 1.2-second faceplate instead of 1.8, brighter LEDs and a five-button remote.
Yes. Classic Gold & Red, Silver & Red, Silver & Black and Dark Edition differ only in paint and cost the same.
No. It is a wearable collector's piece, not safety equipment — it is not certified for riding, sport or impact protection. Enjoy it on display, at events and in photos, never on the road.
One size fits most adults: head circumferences of roughly 55–62 cm (21.5–24.5 in). The padded interior keeps it steady; take short breaks during long wear.
Not for children under 6 — it contains small parts. Older children should wear it with an adult nearby.
Every manufacturing defect and hardware failure under normal use for five years from delivery — the faceplate motors, the voice module, the LEDs, the touch sensors and the remote. Drops, liquid damage and batteries are not covered.
Wipe it with a soft microfibre cloth, avoid harsh cleaners and water, and store it somewhere cool and dry out of direct sunlight. Take the batteries out if it will sit unused for weeks.
