Great review! One of the favorite headlamps. I have the H02R, the output is almost exact same as the ZL H600 XM-L2, and is brighter than other headlamps in this price range: Xtar H3 and Nitecore HC30. Skilhunt claims 820 lumens but it surpasses many “1,000lm” lights I have.
I want to get the H03R for the smaller size and heatsink on the back (the H02 has a hollow room behind the shelf), but my eyes are all over the ZL H600MK3.
One con I have found with H03 is that when the light is on you have no direct acces to turbo. Not a big deal but when using my NC MH20 sometimes it’s nice to be able to go to turbo without having to click 3 times. Another thing is the memory within the modes. I’d like to see it come on always in the lowest setting with a long press. Now if you are in the highest setting of low and turn off the light, a long press will take you back into the highest setting of low. Not a big deal but sometimes it’s annoying. And the silicone holder for light could be made a little less bulky like the zebra lights ones. With the skillhunt ones it doesn’t make sense to remove the top strap unles you cut the holder.
One more thing: I think if you have direct access from off to moon and turbo these two should be excluded from memory, it would make for a more versatile UI I believe. So long press for moon, double click for turbo and normal click for mid or high.
Like I say I’m just nitpicking here cause I really love this light, it’s my EDC. Specially with the TIR, such a nice beam and color.
thank you lumenzilla, i bought it right now, and i cancelled order in banggood to the same flashlight because it isn’t into the stock yet and when i bought it for BG there was show “in stock”
