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.
Both of these pictures look like computer renders (which may be obvious but thought I’d point it out). So It may be hard to get a consistent opacity to the generated optics, etc. It may also explain the old green square around the LED.
10mm shorter than the H02, will it still be able to hold the 3400mAh Panasonic NCR18650B cells?
The H02 I got had an other headband than pictured and it’s too small for my head.
I know it’s a minor detail but for a headlamp a decent headband is a must. I don’t have a particular large head, I mean if a use a headlamp from a friend I find that most of the time I have to make the headband smaller. So most of my friends won’t be able to use the H02 just because of that and even for me it’s way to small. I ordered an ultrafire headband, hope my H02 fits.
The "R" has a very very noticable spot. If you like being able to see a defined spot or will be using this in outdoor applications like hiking and camping then you probably want the "R".
I use my H02 primarily indoors so I do not prefer the reflector version in my application. Even when I am working outdoors I have grown accustomed to the TIR.
My coworkers prefer the R and other reflector equipped lights because they like that concentrated spot.
The H03 just arrived to a friend of mine (he said it took just 9 days to London!) and he sent me a few pics:
Mmh. the anodization colour looks not very consistent :s
Torx screws instead of philips ones, nice
That’s weird… they extended the tube a couple of mm, but didn’t thread it… so the threads are still too few like in the H02 :s I wonder what’s the point of this.

10 mm shorter but both springs are still there, no worries
Now a couple of questions for the ones who already received it:
- He said he couldn’t manage to unscrew the head :s are your head threads glued?
- For the ones who also owns a H02/H15: do you confirm that the threads are compatible so it’s possible to lego tubes and caps between H02 and H03?? (or also H15, but just the head side, the cap side is smaller). From these pictures they look the same to me, I hope they are compatible… actually that’s the only reasone why I’m waiting to buy it for me, I want to know if I can use a the 18350 short tube I’m using on the H02.
I see I hope heating with an hair dryer will be enough :s
Yeah I didn’t mean that, I’m just saying that with the H02 one has to be more careful than with most other flashlights when screwing the cap, especially with long batteries, because the thread are just 2-3 and so the spring is already loaded when the cap threads in. The H03 looks just the same, according to the pictures above.
