The Baja Designs S1 and S2 are the brand's compact pods — small, tough and versatile. The S1 is the smallest in the lineup; the S2 steps up in size and output. Here's how to choose for an electric dirt bike or off-road build.
Quick verdict
- S1 — the most compact pod; great as an auxiliary, accent, or where space is tight. Lower output than the S2.
- S2 — the sweet spot for a primary headlight on a Sur-Ron, Talaria or E-Ride Pro; more output, still compact. The basis of our best-selling prewired kits.

Which should you choose?
