Tell me about it! I paid only about 30€, still a waste since that money buys much better lights!
Don’t do this. There was a guy a number of years back who did similar with a surefire which exploded while he had it in his mouth. Mismatched cells are dangerous. Running them individually is okay though, maybe get a single cell CR123 light?

No, no, no, don’t ever get the F version, the flip diffuser is terrible. I ordered 16pcs as a dealer and requested free H04R conversions lens kits due to the light leakage into your eyes. The diffuser sits on top of the bezel and light escapes around the edges, also the diffuser hinge is transparent/clear which collects the light and does the same thing.
The Nitecore HC65 V2 uses 6500K with the spill measuring in at 7600K. The warm high cri aux is quite dim, so you’re stuck with only cool white. I prefer the Cyansky HS6R with it’s main spot at roughly 4600K and it has 3 levels to it’s 4000K high cri flood beam which is way more useful
Agree,the aux isn’t that powerful and main light is cool tint, but it still has a huge amount of light.
I have always found that cyansky looks cheap(almost like a boruit) and very expensive.Also it performs below specs.Sorry, just my opinion 
That new hm60r has very bright aux and 2 levels
That’s okay.
The most important thing to me is that it punches above its candela rating and matches the HC65 V2
Nitecore - 10,450 cd = 199m at 5m
Cyansky - 10,378 cd = 198m
Quite a bit higher build quality than Boruit and looks nothing like them lol. I’m a dealer for both Nitecore and Cyansky, but of course it still comes down to personal preference 
I’m reviewing the HC65 V2 and will have aerial drone beamshots of both 
That would be awesome!
Maybe I would buy that cyansky in the future if price drops, but 85€ (cheapest I can find) is too much for me
Wow, that’s an impressive list of headlamps Overload! Do you have group picture of them?
I’ll post one tomorrow
Ah, I always forget about the price they sell them for. I get wholesale rates and drop prices to $66 on special incl a 3500mAh protected cell instead of their 2600mAh.
Including my coupon it brings the Cyansky price to $67, but then it still comes with the low capacity cell.
Oh wow. Thanks for the heads up!
I admit I wanted it almost solely for the flip diffuser. Thought it’d be convenient to change flood to throw with a simple flip and get rid of additional weight of a secondary emitter / optic.
Guess I’ll have to make a decision on throw vs flood then.
I have a comparison of them both uploading for you. I’ll share it shortly
Left: Skilhunt H04
Right: Skilhunt H04R
Both in XML2 5000K
How are the buttons to push for you? I read they are too stiff and should fix in the next batch…
Yes, they are really stiff.Mine became a little bit softer from playing(searching out) with the UI

That’s impressive seeing them all laid out, thanks for sharing. How do you store them all? Headlamps are my favorite and most practical gadget I own after my cell phone. I think they make more sense compared to flashlights as they are hands free and harder to lose.
