I had one before for a long time, it finally died and I used the lifetime warranty. It was quick and easy. Got my new light. It's fantastic. As a paramedic I clip it on my hat so hands are free and I can see what I'm looking at. Thanks coast.!!
Great little no frills light. Really bright with the rechargeable battery but no slouch with a regular lithium battery. This is my second one. The first is a year old and still going strong.
My first HX5 lasted 6-8 years with active daily use (nightly dog walks) until the switch wore out. I like the small size, simple on-off switch, flood to spot light slide focusing, and ruggedness. In addition to replacing mine, I've bought several to stuff stockings this year.
The HX5 is a very nice, quality flashlight. The on/off switch works well consistently, and the light beam is consistent. I've had other LED flashlights that have been unreliable. I now have several Coast flashlights and I definitely notice their superior quality.. I'm very happy with the Coast products.
I can't praise this little thing enough. The design and mechanics are as perfect as it gets. Simple and to-the-point. Fits right in the palm of your hand and is super compact and easy to use. Only one cycle of light to click through - and boy, is it bright with the rechargeable battery!. Brilliant. This means you don't have to keep clicking or wonder which brightness setting you're on (which I hate). Gosh, I'll put up with a slightly mushy switch for all this, and mine's not bad. I need one for every corner of the house and car. Now, I hope they don't sell out 'cause I said this.
