Possibly the best light Coast has made!

I have been using this light for work for the past 3 weeks and I don't care if I use any of my other Flashlights again after finding this one! I am a heavy equipment technician so this light has already been through a lot- pressure washing, oil spills, weld spatter, etc.
First off I'll say my most recent edc light was a coast HP3R, which is a great light but is usually either too bright or too dim and I can't even make through a work day on 1 charge. Using the slayer the same amount as the HP3R, the slayer lasted for a full week of work. Having so many brightness and beam options is what makes this light so incredible for me, being able to switch between low flood and the spotlight for different Jobs means I can leave the other big lights in the toolbox.
This light fits great in pants or shirt pockets, is super low profile but still easy to hold onto with greasy hands thanks to the molded style grip. Charging port cover seals well and the pocket clip does not snag too easily. The second button for setting a favorite beam is what really makes this light user friendly so your not constantly clicking through to find the right setting.

I have researched other "wedge" style Flashlights and the specs on this one are way better than the competition as far as run time and light modes. Coast has really knocked it out of the park with this one. If you are a mechanic, farmer, or work in any other tough environment, just BUY this light you will not be disappointed!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Going on a week of very rigorous use nightly, I am absolutely amazed at the battery life, the brightness, and the beam throw this thing packs. The slim design fits perfect in your pocket without being bulky, pocket clip is stout and doesn't feel like its going to fail like other brands, also from a security and defense standpoint it fits perfectly in a closed fist.

Fantastic Product

I got the Coast Slayer flashlight a week ago and I have been using it almost every day. It is a very handy and versatile flashlight that has two different beams: a flood and a spot. The flood beam is good for lighting up a large area, like when I walk my dog at night or when I need to check something under the hood of my car. The spot beam is useful for zooming in on a specific point, like when I need to read a sign or find something in the dark. The flashlight is very bright, especially on turbo mode, which can reach up to 1150 lumens. However, I usually use the lower modes to save battery life, which is also very good. The flashlight can run up to 11 hours on low mode, and it can be recharged quickly with a USB-C cable. The flashlight is also very durable and weatherproof, so I don’t have to worry about dropping it or getting it wet. The flashlight has a unique shape that fits well in my hand and pocket. It also has a metal clip that I can attach to my belt or backpack. The flashlight is made of solid aluminum and has a nice silver color. The flashlight also comes with a lifetime warranty from Coast, which shows their confidence in their product.
The Coast Slayer flashlight is one of my favorite EDC flashlights. It has everything I need in a flashlight: power, versatility, convenience, and durability. It is great for any situation that requires a reliable light source. I think it is worth the price and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality multi beam flashlight.

Small, but durable….& most importantly bright!

The Coast Slayer has been a game-changer in my daily life as an A&P mechanic for the past couple of weeks. This compact flashlight has proven itself as a valuable tool, especially during stressful aviation-related activities .
The Slayer demonstrates impressive durability. It survived accidental drops and even submersion in jet fuel and exposure to hydraulic fluid without any damage. Its aluminum construction and sealed design ensure it remains reliable in challenging conditions.
Additionally, the Coast Slayer features a rechargeable battery, adding to its convenience and eco-friendliness. This eliminates the need for constantly changing batteries and ensures that it's always ready when I need it. The recall mode simplifies its operation, allowing for quick and easy adjustment of the light settings without the hassle of cycling through all the options. These features, combined with its durability and compact size, make the Coast Slayer a must-have tool for any A&P mechanic. Compared to the larger G90 which I currently was using, the Slayer's small size is a significant advantage in tight spaces, making it an indispensable tool for everyday tasks in aircraft maintenance. It's durable, practical, and always within reach, making it my go-to flashlight.

Great EDC carry
on September 13, 2023

If you are in the market for a slim EDC carry flashlight, this one is probably the best in the market. Good battery life and brightness, more than other competing models. I like the options when it comes to beam patterns and brightness, and the ability to lock in a favorite mode. For me, when out on the property or hiking, the spot mode will be the one I save.
On the topic of beam patterns, this flashlight has a good range of modes applicable for many situations. For hiking or out taking a walk in the neighborhood, the flood modes are good for illuminating pathways, while if you need to see a distance in detail, the spot mode is really able to throw the light a farther distance. While in spot mode, this flashlight maintains more detail in the beam than other competing models (resists washing out details at distances when illuminating objects). This is notable as the whole point of spot mode is to distinguish what that bump in the night was, and other flashlights that I have used have washed out details making it hard to tell if the animal was fluffy the cat or a racoon.
Only thing I would change about this model is making the pocket clip slightly more deep carry so it sits flush in the pocket. That is a personal preference, as some may like some body to be exposed to be easier to grab out of the pocket. Overall though, the ergonomics on this flashlight are great, as the grooves on the underbody allow you to get a good grip on the light with a solid purchase. Another thing to note is that the pocket clip doesn't have any hot spots in your hand while having a tight grip.
Pictures show low flood, high flood, spot, and moonlight mode.
Overall this is a very good EDC light with plenty of brightness and mode options to fit many use cases. A very good attractive design with practical design features make this an easy choice to grab as it molds so nicely into your hand -coast was able to add subtle details in the design of this light to really make it stand out from the competition and look aggressive with a minimal design at the same time. If you are in the market for and EDC of this form factor and are on the fence, this is absolutely better than both other options in the current market, and offers a lot more for the price.

I received this as part of Coast's Field Tester program, and like all Coast products this light is fantastic.
The overall design of this product is great for pocket carry, the pocket clip is an awesome addition and the flat design works as well.
The light modes are perfect for this product, light is super bright on High Mode! The memory function is also a neat setting.
Overall this is an awesome addition to my Coast Collection.
Highly recommend for anyone especially folks in the trades!
