A nice EDC pocket light with high lumen output
on September 10, 2023

It is nice to see Coast entering the fray of the new popular flat bodied lights. The fit and finish is excellent and the contours molded into one side of the light make for an excellent feel in the hand. This is not an ultra small carry but extremely comfortable in the pocket to the point where you can forget you are carrying it until needed.
The pocket clip is removable (used Torx T6 to remove) but leaves two small holes in the body which I do not know if removing the clip impacts the IP67 rating. I submerged the light in a foot of water for half an hour with no impact on performance (clip was attached).
In my opinion it had good light output for inspection tasks, walking down a dark path or into a dark basement but not enough output for huge area flooding or long distance spotting tasks.
The biggest negative I found was that the internal rechargeable battery does not appear to be replaceable. While this seems to be common to all of these newer flat bodied EDC lights I would have liked to seen Coast innovate something beyond the competition here with a replaceable battery.
To me this feels like a premium "smart casual" EDC light that would be a pleasure to pocket carry on a nice evening out rather than a light for a day in the shop. I definitely favor Coast's XP lineup for automotive work but I will really enjoy carrying this on special occasions which may make it a preferred light for folks in other occupations where the style fits more into their daily work.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Small size / Big light

I have been using this light for the last few days. The size makes it easy to fit in a pocket—similar to the size of a pocket knife. At work the flashlight fits into the shroud cutter pocket of my flight suit like it was designed for it.
I have never been impressed with other pen lights—and while this is slightly larger than a pen light—the light output is a great trade off.
The slayer is a great light and I look forward to using it.

Slayer is a classy EDC
on September 10, 2023

When I open the box it came I love that part because the packaging is great
This is what I like so far about this Slayer
Pros: + QUICK-CYCLE-SWITCH-SYSTEM. FIXED FOCUS BEAM SYSTEM.
+ It will charge at a fast rate without getting warm and GREEN led when done!
+ LED thermal management is great the slayer wont get hot in your hand.
+ The tacktile feel of the buttons are strong no accidental turn on
+ No screws hold the case together seems to be one molded diecast body very
strong aluminum alloy with a semi glossy anodized look.
+ Dual LEDs PURE BEAM and BULLS EYE wide light or spot light cool!
+ Beamsaver light mode setting is easy to use.
+ No strobe or SOS a big plus!
+ Removeable belt clip

Impressive light in a small size.

Received this light earlier this week. It came partially charged but it only took about 20 minutes to fully charge. I have had a few other Coast LED lights over the years all of which have been great but this one is in a league of its own. It is very compact and lightweight and very bright. I am a service technician at a car dealership and used this light every day this week, so far have not re-charged it yet. It has 5 brightness modes. (almost too many !)
It has the ability to memorize which setting you prefer which is great.
Overall I would highly recommend this light.

Nice form factor
on September 8, 2023
Posted by: patentlyEDC
from TN
Great light with a great form factor that other brands are exploring. Slides nicely into and out of the pocket. The dual switch setup with memory is nice to have for setting a start output level. Would be nice to see more spot beam levels, and a true moonlight of about 1 lumen, and an option to have both LEDs on other than in turbo. Better tint and color rendering would be an improvement, as well as higher sustained outputs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Light years ahead of similar EDC flashlights

I am very happy with the Slayer flashlight..
The flashlight is just the right size for my hand and with the feather light weight the Slayer is not noticable in my pocket.
I have to say this flashlight has every feature I may need in my life. There are two beams , one focused and one broad. Output of up to 1150 luman on Turbo mode covers my needs nicely.
This flashlight even has a type C plug for recharging
and a lifetime warranty !
Well thought out design that is now part of my EDC !
