The Flashlight that Started my Coast Journey

At the end of 2022, I decided to replace my aging, decades old Mag Lites. As a small Holiday present to myself, I decided to buy the Coast products HX5 LED flashlight from a local big box hardware store.
When I received it, I was thrilled to experience the quality of this little gem of a flashlight. The weight gave it a nice confident & balanced feel in my hand. Operation of the on/off switch was firm & decisive. Control of the beam w/the slide focus was intuitive & easy to use.
Overall, my first impression of Coast Products was strong enough to peak my curiosity and encourage me to explore the Coast Products web-site. As I told Bobby, in Customer Service, on a recent call, I am hooked & addicted to Coast Products! LoL! Coast Products simply ticks off all of the boxes that make them a company I will support w/confidence in my little corner of the world!

I do home inspections and having good light is incredibly important. I wear this on a lanyard around my neck so it's always handy. After many years carrying a mag light, it is such a relief to have a light that gives better light in ways a fraction of the mag light. I like it well enough that I have one for work, one in the barn, one in the shop and One at my desk.

The Coast HX5-A Simple, Awesome Little Flashlight
on August 29, 2023
Posted by: Fred

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love this little flashlight because it's perfect for adding some extra light when working on things around the house or in the garage. It's simple On / Off switch makes using it fast as you don't have to cycle thru a strobe or other power settings to use it. It's also plenty bright and easy to focus using just one AA battery. Or you can use a rechargeable lithium battery and get much more light. This HX5 replaced an older HP1 that I used to hold in my mouth when I needed both hands, but the clip on this light can slip over the brim of my ball cap and point forward... a nice feature. You won't be disappointed with this flashlight. Also, I can't say enough about this company's customer service as this HX5 was sent to me as a replacement for my HP1 that was discontinued.

The HX5 is a great little compact light. The clip is great for clipping it to the bill of my had for hands free use but it's also great handheld. I love the light weight when camping or backpacking.

Small, rugged, easy to use, just right. Switch allows momentary on (press lightly to turn on; release to turn off - great for quick looks). Zoom is a slide, not rotation. So everything is trivial with one hand. Fits in pants pocket just fine. With the lithium cell, the 300 to 400 lumen output is terrific.
