Why did you change the location of the on/off push button? I previously owned a COAST flashlight that had an easy to find on/off button located on the end of the light. This new one has the button located 2/3rds down the shaft and the button is not well defined making it very very hard to find. Yes the button is illuminated but you have to look for the illuminated button to turn it off.
Very bright light that shines a good distance. Comfortable to hold. Flashlight package includes a USB-C to USB-C cable. I would rated this product 5-stars, if the Coast USB-C Split Charging Cable was included.
I had to buy a USB--C female to USB-A male adapter to connect to my USB Plug / Wall Charger.
Once again Coast knocked it out of the park. Such a great flashlight, easy to use and charge. Has USB-C cable included for charging. I have been using this light for the past week daily for inspecting vehicles and it is perfect. I got 2 because of such a great price! The other one is in my truck.
Good sized flashlight. Rechargeable battery with usb-c is great. Battery charge indicator light is nice. A little skeptical about the three light level switch, but it works pretty well.
I have two (2) of these lights, I'm using one as a mountain bike light (mounted on my handlebar with a "Ram Mount") good for that purpose if I ride to long into the evening. The light is medium size: 6 5/8" long with a 1 1/4" dia. body, and a 1 1/2" light bezel. A little large (I call it medium size), but "doable" for "everyday" pocket carry. On "spot focus" it has a nice wider hot spot with good surrounding fill. It is quite bright on the default "medium" brightness setting and gives good run time on that setting too. The "flood" focus is quite wide with an even light spill. I have many flashlights, but this is my favorite for a general-purpose light.
My first rechargeable, beyond pleasantly surprised

I have many Coast products from lanterns to headlights to traditional flashlights, and though I was not looking to buy another when I got this one coupled with the idea of feeding more AA into it's big brother again was not my idea of a financially viable option so I went for it.
To say I am impressed is a gross understatement, this thing is fantastic. Easy to charge, very easy to operate and I am quite happy with the 3 position switch which initially was the second reason I was not going to bite.
Press once for medium lumen output, a quick second for high output, a third time for low and then off. I love that if I start with medium and use it (watching dogs outside in the dark) then later hit the switch again it goes off, perfect.
This beast does a great job of lighting up my backyard, keeping a bright concentrated beam on the dogs when they are on last call, I heartily recommend this light.
