The Skilhunt H04 RC / H04R RC is a compact, rechargeable right-angle flashlight designed for hands-free lighting, outdoor adventures, and everyday work. Powered by a replaceable 18650 Li-ion battery, it combines a side switch, USB magnetic charging, multiple brightness levels, and a magnetic tailcap in a versatile design suitable for hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, maintenance, and everyday use.
The key difference between the two models is their optical design. The H04 RC uses a TIR optical lens for a smooth, evenly distributed beam, while the H04R RC uses an orange-peel reflector to produce a more defined central hotspot and greater beam distance.
Choose between cool white illumination and high-CRI Nichia 519A LED options to suit your lighting preferences.
H04 RC vs. H04R RC: Choose Your Beam
H04 RC – TIR Optical Lens
The H04 RC uses a TIR optical lens to produce a smooth beam with gradual transitions between the hotspot and surrounding illumination. It is well suited to close-range tasks, walking, camping, and general-purpose lighting.
According to the manufacturer, the TIR version produces approximately 7–10% less output than the reflector version.
H04R RC – Orange-Peel Reflector
The H04R RC features an orange-peel reflector that creates a more defined central hotspot and provides greater peak beam intensity and longer beam distance.
It is a good choice for users who want more concentrated illumination for outdoor navigation, trail use, and spotting objects at a distance.
Which should you choose?
-
Choose the H04 RC for a smoother, more evenly distributed beam.
-
Choose the H04R RC for a more defined hotspot and greater throw.
LED Options and Color Temperature
The H04 RC and H04R RC are available with different LED configurations. Maximum output and beam distance vary depending on the selected LED and optical design.
Cool White – 5700–6500K
Delivers up to 1,300 lumens with a crisp, cool-white appearance. Choose this option if maximum brightness is your priority.
Nichia 519A – 5000K R9080
Provides high color rendering for natural-looking colors and detailed close-range work. With a neutral-white appearance, it is a versatile choice for everyday use and outdoor activities.
Nichia 519A – 4000K R9080
Produces a neutral-to-warm white beam with excellent color rendering, suitable for users who prefer a less cool appearance.
Nichia 519A – 3000K R9080
Offers warm-white illumination with excellent color rendering, making it suitable for close-range tasks and users who prefer warmer light at night.
The Nichia 519A R9080 options are designed for users who value color fidelity as well as practical illumination.
Maximum Output and Beam Distance
The following figures are based on the manufacturer's H04 series manual. Actual performance may vary with battery condition, temperature, and operating environment.
| LED Configuration | H04 RC (TIR) | H04R RC (Reflector) |
|---|---|---|
| Cool White 5700–6500K | Up to 1,300 lm | Up to 1,300 lm |

| Maximum Beam Distance – Cool White | 132 m | 142 m |
| Beam Distance – 5000K R9080 | 107 m | 121 m |
| Beam Distance – 4000K R9080 | 105 m | 116 m |
| Beam Distance – 3000K R9080 | 95 m | 109 m |
The manufacturer notes that these specifications are approximate and were measured under laboratory conditions using a high-quality lithium battery.
USB Magnetic Charging
The H04 RC and H04R RC feature a magnetic charging port for convenient recharging without removing the compatible battery.
Simply connect the supplied magnetic charging cable to a USB power source and attach it to the flashlight's charging port.
Charging indicator:
-
Red: Charging
-
Blue: Charging complete
The manufacturer recommends a USB power source rated at no less than 10W (5V/2A).
Important: The built-in charging function is intended for one compatible 3.6V/3.7V rechargeable Li-ion battery. Do not use the charging function with disposable CR123A batteries. Ensure the battery is correctly installed, with the positive terminal facing the flashlight head.
Replaceable Battery and Power Indicator
The H04 RC / H04R RC is designed around a replaceable 18650 Li-ion battery, allowing users to replace the battery when needed instead of relying on a permanently built-in power source.
The flashlight also features a battery status indicator integrated into the side switch. When the light is turned on, the indicator illuminates for approximately five seconds to show the battery's remaining charge.
-
Constant blue: Approximately 80–100%
-
Blinking blue: Approximately 50–80%
-
Constant red: Approximately 20–50%
-
Blinking red: Approximately 0–20%
The flashlight also provides a low-voltage warning. When battery voltage drops below 3.0V, the indicator flashes twice every two seconds and the main light flashes briefly every two minutes. At approximately 2.7V, the flashlight shuts off to help prevent excessive battery discharge.
Multiple Brightness Levels and Easy Operation
The H04 RC / H04R RC features four operating groups: Main, Low, Turbo, and Strobe. The electronic side switch provides access to different brightness levels and special modes without requiring a mechanical mode selector.
Main Group: H → M1 → M2
Provides the main brightness levels for everyday illumination.
Low Group: L1 → L2
Provides lower-output lighting for close-range tasks and situations where reduced brightness is preferred.
Turbo Group: T1 → T2
Provides quick access to higher-output illumination when additional brightness is needed.
Strobe Group: S1 → S2 → S3
Offers three flashing modes.
Switch Operation
-
Single-click: Turn the light on or off.
-
Press and hold for 0.5 seconds while off: Enter the Low Group.
-
Double-click while off: Enter the Turbo Group.
-
Triple-click while off: Enter the Strobe Group.
-
Press and hold while on in the Main, Low, or Turbo Group: Cycle through the available brightness levels.
-
Quick double-click while in the Main or Low Group: Enter Turbo; double-click again to return to the previous brightness level.
-
Quick triple-click while in the Main or Low Group: Enter Strobe; triple-click again to return to the previous brightness level.
-
Quick click followed by holding the switch: Toggle between the Main and Low Groups.
-
Press and hold in Strobe: Cycle through S1, S2, and S3.
The flashlight remembers the last selected brightness level or mode when switched off, according to the manufacturer's operating instructions.
Electronic Lockout and Location Indicator
To help prevent accidental activation during storage or transport, the H04 RC / H04R RC includes an electronic lockout function.
When the flashlight is off, quickly click the side switch four times to activate lockout. The location indicator also activates and flashes approximately once per second.
Double-clicking the switch turns the location indicator on or off while locked. Quickly clicking the switch four times again unlocks the flashlight and activates Low mode.
This feature helps prevent unwanted activation in a pocket, backpack, or gear bag while making the flashlight easier to locate in darkness.
Magnetic Tailcap and Hands-Free Use
The magnetic tailcap allows the flashlight to attach to suitable metal surfaces, providing hands-free illumination for repairs, equipment inspection, and other close-range work.
The right-angle body can be used with the included headband for hands-free lighting, carried as a handheld flashlight, or attached to clothing or equipment using the pocket clip.
Its compact construction makes it practical for outdoor activities, workshop use, vehicle maintenance, and everyday carry.
Durable Construction and Outdoor Protection
The H04 RC / H04R RC features an aluminum body with a Type III hard-anodized finish. Its compact construction is designed for practical everyday use and outdoor activities.
Additional protection and safety features include:
-
IPX8 waterproof rating
-
1-meter impact resistance
-
Reverse-polarity protection
-
Low-voltage warning and automatic shutoff
-
Thermal management for high-output operation
Avoid running Turbo continuously in high ambient temperatures if the flashlight becomes too hot to hold. Do not cover the flashlight head while it is on, and avoid directing the beam into the eyes of people or animals.
