Review Skilhunt H03 TIR lens - COUPON UPDATED

Yes, it looks too white on picture but actually it’s more neutral than pictured.
I believe it because I forgot to calibrate white balance on my camera. My bad.

Here’s wall shot compared to On The Road M900 and Olight H05S for reference:

do you have any other headlamp to compare with skilhunt?
i got skilhunt H02R CW and want to buy skilhunt H03 TIR lens NW for more flood

I compared my SH H03 with my Zebralight F600Fd and they are very similar in both lumens, flood and tint, and the H03 is half the price.

My other headlamps are Zebralight SC51, Fenix HL23, and Olight H05S.
I’m afraid they’re not really comparable to Skilhunt H03 because they’re completely different animals.

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.

Very nice review LZ! Thank you!

Those beamshots are really well done, mate. Nice review too.

Can the lamp be used in the headlamp holder with the pocket clip on it (i.e., without removing it)?

Updated OP with discount code.

Thanks, man.

It’s possible to insert the torch into the holder without removing the clip but it won’t be easy to operate though.

i think i’ll buy it, thank for coupon

For the price vs quality and performance, which one would you guys recommend between H02 new (820-380-110-5) and H03?

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.

Is it better then nitcore hc30? I saw that H03 has better runtime, and I think this should be why I’ll buy this one…

Hi! what is your recommended 18650 battery for skilhunt H03? :slight_smile:

Because H03 is shorter than H02, I will prefer H03.

I tried some batteries (flat top) and all are fine.

thank you lumenzilla! :+1:

is the coupon expired?

Just checked, I think yes, sorry.
I’ll ask them if they have another coupon.

Is there another coupon? I hope that this is a lot cheaper than the Nitecore HC30.

With coupon it has same price of hc30, but as a flood is better the H03.
Any news about coupon?
