Skilhunt H03 Review

Petrol? My mate has a Falcon Tickford 302 Windsor.
Id love a raptor if i lived in America the car is to big for here. Nice truck :smiley: The F150 are the most sold cars in the USA. I was looking at the new Nissan the ones with the Cummins engines they look cool.

Yes, the 5 liter V8 is gasoline. 4 x 4, 380hp 385 ft lbs torque. The Raptors are 485 hp, but $50,000us. You can buy the Ford Supercharger kit for the 5 liter for $4000 and get over 600hp. Mine is stock and has more than enough power for me. The old 302 Windor engines were great. So were the 351’s. All of Fords engines are overhead cam engines now. They completely did away with the old push-rod type engines. Yeah, the F150 is the most sold vehicle of all time in the US. Still is today.

No, it really is due to the thickness of the steel and/or the strength of the magnet. Normal amounts of alloying elements added to steel will not change the magnetic properties much. The magnetic flux and the thickness of the steel are much more significant factors. I’m somewhat of a flashlight noob, but I’m well versed in physics and engineering.

I don’t like having to “unlock” a light for normal use each and every time I take it out of my pocket. Lock out is good for when I want to store a light, or when I want to throw it in a bag where it will likely be bumped around. IMO a recessed button does not negatively effect the usability of the light at all (well, maybe if you are wearing thick gloves?) but it does create the possibility for the light to be activated accidentally.

I managed to take the light apart its is glued, but with some heat and not much force it gets loose
Unfortinually I slipped off the head and my F version is now missing the external TIR lens as it broke the plastic joint
Probably its better to bend the side with the switch with some spacer and opposite side to hold the head, not like I did the side with the lens and TIR optic mounted
Or remove the external TIR optic whith its base

For my nitecore P12 I used way more force and heat but it resisted to get opened

Not much to see on the circuit board a lot small resistors and the ICs are fixed with some non transparent glue

I did a spring bypass, if you want pictures I will make some

Led swap possible?

Pictures would be appreciated.

LED swap is no problem, just 4 screws and you can extract the lens, reflector and MCPCB.

If you want more throw with XPL HI maybe, but the XML U4 is as bright as an XPL HD V6

Opening the tube to get to the driver is harder.

I’m all about tint. If the neutral is not nice I’ll try a different xml2 or try to get a Nichia in there.

Please let us know if you try a Nichai under that TIR… I know that it may not be nice to mix 3535 footprint with TIR, at least that’s what happen with Olight TIRs.
I swapped mine with a spare XM-L2 (T4-7A) to make it better, will swap again when I receive my T5-5D1 80+ CRI.

Before and after :

Mine showed up today. First Sat off in long time and I got something to play with.

Really liking it so far. My head seams to really tit on the body, want to 18350 one.

Glad you like it. The only issue I have is if wear a hat fishing. The TIR optics will go to waste if I wear the hat lol not really an issue but I do usually wear a hat while fishing. The beam is so wide its awesome. You can leave the light in any position and it will give enough light up or down without having to tilt.

Noticed.
Double click always goes to the brighter turbo.
Flash when using the brighter low.

Edit. smaller than the AT Wizard and H02.
Magnet not as strong as Wizard, better than H02, but is a smaller light.

Still cant get the head off.

The head is glued but with some heat and force it opens

You need way more force to open it than you could do with bare hands but a lot less than I used and failed on my nitecore P12.

The head and body has plane areas you can use a machine vise to hold the body or head and a little vise to twist the other body part counterclockwise

You can use a washer around the switch and some wood on the opposite side to hold the head tight.

Heat always helps to make the glue less strong.

Put it into headlamp mode tonight, by using a H02 Headband, It was a loose fit, but worked great with the clip left on the light. And was easier to install and remove from the head band.

To the basement I go…

Bingo came out to smidge over 2.5 inches. With some friends.!

H03 18350, S15 -cap&switch boot, H03 ,WizardPro, H02

so from which light is that short tube?

I did today some beamshots

I believe it was a a BLF A6 18350 tube that didn’t work for the A6.

Does that mean that the H03R would accommodate a nichia better then the TIR version? I Have both and would like a High CRI LED in one of them.
Could some one recommend me a high cri nichia to put in on of them?

The H03 has a 5050 footprint, so the TIR should be set up for this
The difference should not be that big

I’m thinking of swapping a nichia led in, what size is the mcpcb?
