It gives 25 shields. If you have 500 shields, it will still only give 25 more to that for a grand total of 525 shield capacity. However, if you have 100hp it will take 5. If you have 500hp it will take 25. (95 and 475hp afterwards, respectively.) If you have a lot of health this helmet might not be that great.

That said, shields recharge, health doesn't... 25 points of shield capacity are typically more valuable than the respective amount of health.
