Lots of views on tire pressure - I found this article very useful as a 'starter' and then adjust to personal preference.

Personally I think tires tend to be an under-appreciated part of the overall cycling experience. I do not know the Bontrager H2 tire. I installed good old Marathon Supremes on my hybrid and no complaints (or, touch wood, punctures!)
