11. keeps getting better

    Posted by slaughter on 12th Feb 2021

    Put off purchasing E03 because I liked the gray on the E02 better. Well now that the E03ii came out I had to try it out. Sry impressed. Love the new user interface much better with the 1 click on/off. Output and run times awesome. Best aa light available with a tie with zebralight. But I would change a few things of course. Bring the gray into the E03 the E02 had, bigger lenses opening for more light, stringer magnet. I actually like the orange peel reflector better than the tir for this light for better throw. But definitely a incredible light. I ended up stripping off the anodization with oven cleaner and polishing the raw aluminum. It looks incredible now!!!!

12. Best EDC

    Posted by Gary on 6th Nov 2020

    Running the recommended Eneloop Pro gives plenty of lumens for every day tasks. Price and quality are unsurpassed. You won't regret owning this lil beauty!

13. 素晴らしいライト

    Posted by asdf on 17th Oct 2020

    前のモデルに比べてスイッチ部分が金属ですり減りにくそう。
    テールのマグネットは取り外し可能になっている（私は取り外した）。
    14500のli-ion対応になっていて素晴らしい。
    まぁ、とにかく素晴らしいです。

14. Excellent AA headlamp

    Posted by O.R. on 29th Sep 2020

    Great AA headlamp. Great quality. The ability to adjust the “eco” / low lumen light is amazing. Head strap is very comfortable and the diffuser is great for reading.

15. Great little AA headlamp

    Posted by Matthew Wells on 28th Sep 2020

    I carry a small flashlight in my pocket, and like to carry a headlamp/backup light in my backpack. For years I had carried an old Petzl e-light because of it's small size. The light output was garbage, but it has gotten me back to camp more than once when I stayed out too long. I decided (on multiple recommendations) to get this as a replacement and I couldn't be happier.
    
    The light is solidly constructed, all of the threads were cut cleanly and the patterning gives a nice grip. This is my first right angle light, and I absolutely love the utility of this. I may replace my primary light with another one of these.
    
    The headband is comfortable so far (only wore it for about an hour working on some repairs in the attic) and it holds the light securely.
    
    Multiple light output modes and a feature that I love is that you can lock the light to prevent it from turning on inadvertently. Since this light lives in a backpack that gets thrown around daily it is nice to have piece of mind that the batteries will be fresh when I need them.
    
    I haven't tried the diffusers yet, but they clip solidly into the light and one can be left attached full-time. It just pushes out of the way when not in use, but is there ready to go if you want it. I may put the green or red filter on just to have the option to preserve my night vision of I need it.
    
    I haven't needed to use the magnetic tail-cap, but I tested it out and it securely holds the light.
    
    Bottom line: great light and I would recommend it, and will probably purchase another.

    Small light with superb quality, great interface and with intergrated diffuser. Strong tail magnet and easy to use headband. I totally recommend it.
    Fast delivery!

17. Good AA headlight

    Posted by phil chang on 11th Jan 2020

    I was in the market for a AA headlight to replace the 18650 one that I have in my car. Although run-time is significantly less I wanted to standardize on Lithium primaries and/or NiMh for all my car lights (each vehicle has a headlight and 2 AA flashlight). Since the E03H was on clearance I decided to try it out.
    
    The light appears to be well constructed and the threads are square cut and came clean and well lubed. The body knurling is diamond pattern and feels good in my hand. No complaints at all about the fit and finish.
    
    The tail cap contains a magnet which is strong enough to hold the light in any position without fear of falling off.
    
    The head-strap is stiff compared to most that I have but holds the flashlight well and should prove satisfactory in use. The pocket clip must be taken off in order to use the head-strap.
    
    Testing shows that step-down from turbo to high happens after about 3 minutes. I don't have an integrating sphere but using a lux app on my phone indicates that the output is fairly well regulated (maintains the same brightness level on a mode rather than dropping as the battery is emptied).
    
    A single press on the switch starts the flashlight in moonlight while a long press starts it in the last mode used. Each click then cycles the light up. From moonlight the cycle is low/Mid/Hi/Mid/Low. From a long press the cycle is last mode used, etc.
    
    A double click from off will turn the light on in turbo and clicking the switch will cycle through the strobe modes. I would have preferred that turbo be part of the normal modes and accessed by a double click while the light is on.
    
    The switch is a bit too recessed for me and a double click to access turbo was harder to perform than it should be.
    
    The beam pattern is good with no irregularities. Diffusers come with the light but I would use diffuser film instead. Tint was fairly neutral with no hint of green.
    
    Without an integrating sphere I have no way to measure the output but the stated output seems reasonable compared to other lights I have.
    
    I would have given the E03H a 5 but the double click to turbo putting it into the strobe group dropped it a star for me.

18. My Comment

    Posted by David P. Venen on 11th Aug 2019

    Hi. My name is Dave
    On a scale of 1 to 10 I rate this a 100.
    I am going to order another one.
    I have been out side for the last two and a half ours putting a Ham Radio antenna up in the dark and the light did not dim down at all.
    I love the different settings to choose from.
    If you order one don't get impatient 'cause it takes a little time
    to get to your place but worth the wait.
    Thank you,
    David P. Venen
    
    P.S. I wanted it because it only takes one battery.

20. Another fine light

    Posted by Chris on 2nd Jan 2018

    I purchased this after owning the E03 for some time. The Nichia 219C is one of the nicest LED's available today. The tint and color rendition make it hard to go back to other lights.
    
    The beam is large enough for using the headlight for close up work, and if you use the included diffuser, the beam is quite floody.
    
    The magnet andthe head band work quite well.
    
    If you are afraid of the light turning on in your pocket, loosen the tail cap about 1/4 to 1/2 turn.
    
    This light, at this price point is an excellent value.
