Wauw looks good!
Nice UI
And those optics look like they eliminate a hotspot making it a nice work light.
Very nice headlamp. Low weight, short, Low-voltage prompts function, temperature control technology :+1:
I want one.
Any NW tint version?
Nice, can I trade in my defective H02? (bad driver)
I contacted Skilhunt and here was their reply:
“Please try to tighten the aluminum ring that fix the driver.
If still not work, please contact the dealer that you purchased from to get warranty.”
Well I tightened it but it still not work, and the dealer is Gearbest.

Bought it in March last year so it’s well within the 24 months warranty period. But the warranty covers replacement only for the first 15 days, after that it’s “Free repair” (but labor only!) customer pays for parts and shipping which would probably be close to or more than I paid for the light.
Maybe cheaper to replace the driver myself but I’d have to fiddle around with making a contact board (original driver is 20.9mm dia.)
If you search on here you’ll find others who have had driver issues with their H02.

I like the upgrades on this new H03, great to see it has a copper DTP MCPCB, maybe it allows them to drive it a little harder for those extra lumens.
I hope they made the driver more reliable. And make a NW version. I’d give them another shot if I could get some satisfaction for my issue with my H02.
The way I see it having to pay for parts and shipping pretty much makes their warranty 15 days, not 2 years.
Skilhunt please post or PM me with a solution!
Very nice looking headlamp, UI is perfect EXCEPT for hold to OFF…
Am I understanding the UI correctly: From off, pressing the switch for 0.5 sec will turn the light on in low mode?
This is a 1200 “lemen” light?
Are lemens related to lemurs? :innocent:
I believe its lumen in french 
Looks like another winning headlamp from Skilhunt.
Yes that’s what I’m seeing, and that’s how my H02 works. (when it was working 
)
On this H03 a press and hold will bring you to Low 1, and from there it shows a double click brings it up to Low 2, or another press and hold brings it up to Med 1.
It looks like the same UI as the H02, with 2 stages added to every level, and you double click to move up to the 2nd stage within each level. And press - hold again to advance to the next level. Double click to Turbo from off.
Note that 1200lm is LED Lumens, (which really has no meaning except marketing?)
And the ANSI 1000lm rating is only with 2xCR123A
It’s rated 900lm ANSI on 18650 Li-ion, (which I assume is what most of us would use) Not to say 900lm isn’t bright but until I took a good look at the specs I was under the impression it had 1200lm.
H02 is 960 LED Lumens / 820lm ANSI, so H03 is only slightly brighter than H02. But H02 was very bright indeed.
Also this H03 is 10mm shorter than H02, so a big size improvement there over the H02.
I'm working on upgrading my H15 to a FET+1 that will utilize the LED's in the button - to run the latest Narsil with smooth ramping. It's gonna get a decent NW XM-L2 on a Noctigon - the stock MCPCB is typical aluminum in the H15. I'm using an XM-L2 because the optics are made for it.
Mine also is the 21 mm driver, but a 17 will fit in there nice on top of the 21 stock driver - I've wired it up for multiple grnd contact points already.
The smooth ramping UI and pure power should be awesome in this light. What I like is the surface the MCPCB sits on is all one piece with the body, and the cooling fins are directly connected and behind that surface - best direct connection to outside heat sink fins I've seen. Of course it's a small 14500 (AA size) light, so I'm sure it will get hot at 4.5-5A, as I'm expecting to get.
Thanks beam0
I agree, the press to turn off is awful!!! Why can’t it be press and hold to CYCLE and click to turn off?! Apart from that I still love my H02, but the UI gets me every time.
seems like a good price and Im giving it a go as my first skillhunt light.
I have been collecting Zebralights for years and have almost all models but decided time to break the ice with other brand now as Zebralight is just way too expensive.
Anyone have any info on the low mode runtime?
I’d like to do something special with my H02, like an MT-G2 or XPH50

Thanks tom, yes there’s a lot of room in the H20 above the horozontal board, guess I’d have to remove the vertical board and clear all the components off to make it into a contact board. Mtn. Electronics lists a 21mm contact board but I’ve never seen it in stock since I’ve been looking, I’ve yet to check FT or others though.
Too bad they didn’t make the head sidewalls just a wee bit thicker and that driver shelf could have been wide enough for a 20mm, on the H02 the driver ledge is about 21mm. also thought about grinding down the edges of a 22mm driver but I’m not sure there would be enough of the grounding contact ring left? And the 22 is FET, not FET+1.
…………………………

On the H02 the MCPCB surface is also one piece with the body, but attached only on the sides, and unfortunately there are no cooling fins.
Behind the surface is just wide open space, a second cavity with the surface being like a separator in the middle of the head, and the surface is quite thin, it looks about the same thickness of (or slightly thinner than) the stock MCPCB, about 2mm or less. I haven’t dug into that area yet but at least it appears the MCPCB is nicely secured with 2 screws.
…………………………
…………………………
Is there a FET+1 driver off the shelf that will run the LED’s in the button? Or did you custom build one for that?
It really looks like this new H03 would be an excellent candidate for a FET driver swap, especially if the MCPCB surface is directly connected to the cooling fins like your H15. It already has the copper DTP so just drop in a FET/DD and you’re ready to blaze!
Just checked and NW is available on the Skilhunt site!!

GB has these listed now on Pre-sale, someone please give us a discount code deal!
EDIT- GB not listing NW version

Well on the chart in the OP it shows Low2 (3lm) is 450hrs. on 18650, but no spec shown for Low1 (0.5lm) but I assume double the Low2, so maybe 900hrs??
Check this out:
H03F, “F” for Flood? (looks like a Mule set up with a flip open cover)
It’s shown at Gearbest but no mention in the OP and I don’t see it on the Skilhunt site.
But again no NW version listed.
huh? Wow, that's unique! Tha green look' square around the LED is throwing me off - looks like an old XML
We have to wait but I will get us a code. Keep in mind that they will not be at the blowout pricing that we've been seeing for the H02...which is a steal at the moment.
It would be nice if Skilhunt has started potting their drivers and offering replacement drivers (not under warranty) to repair those that have stopped working from getting dropped which is not a manufacturing defect.
