Excellent flashlight!

I bought one of these and these bought several for my friends. Although 130 lumens doesn't sound impressive it is plenty. The beam focuses well and can illuminate objects quite a ways away. Spread out, the beam can illuminate a broad area at a shorter range. At all settings the beam is very even.
There are more powerful flashlights but how much flashlight do you need? Super bright lights can destroy your low light vision for several minutes. Chances are you can see everything you need to with this light and it will not take your eyes as long to recover nor will things outside of the beam be plunged into complete darkness. Given the same efficiency lens, reflector and light source, and all decent flashlights are very close in these areas, more light means using more batteries.
For most of my use, this flashlight is perfect. I haven't tested the waterproofness or bashed it around but I think this flashlight is at the top of the performance/price scale.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love Coast flashlights, they're affordable, durable, and customer support makes any warranty claim easy. This one I keep in my overalls pocket, the size is right, and the clip keeps it secure. I would like to see the pushbutton improved however, as it's tough to turn on with even a HyFlex glove. If the button protruded a little more you wouldn't need a tiny fingertip to turn it on. Oftentimes I forsake using it when I know I'll have to take my gloves off during a job, but overall it's a great buy and a good product.
