Customer Reviews for COAST - Bulls-Eye Spot Fixed Beam LED Penlight - Black

Not like the light it replaced, this model no longer has momentary on. This was a feature that I used frequently, not happy with loss of it. I will probably look to other brands that use this feature in the future. The light is an overall tough flashlight, but lacks the feature that made it stand out before.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Full Disclosure: Coast provided me this HP4 in order for me to test them out. But, everything I will talk about here is my own opinion.
Coast Portland was not given copy approval nor any editorial input in this review. That means, they're reading this review for the first time along side you.
These are the topics I will cover. Skip to whatever corresponding number in order to read about that specific topic and find what you are looking for.
1) Build Quality/Overview
2) Weight
3) Operation and Modes
4) Charging Port
5) Battery and Charging
6) Performance On Lithium-ion Battery
7) Charge Time/Battery Satistics
8) Final Thoughts
The Individual Topics Begin Here:
1) Build Quality/Overview:
• The light feels premium in the hand with semi-coarse knurling
• It is entirly made of high strength anodized aluminum
• The tail cap unscrews in order to remove the battery
• The button is a high travel, stiff, mushy, high positive tactile button with a rubber cap over it
2) Weight:
• 2.22 oz (63 grams). That's about the weight of 11 United States Quarters
3) Opperation and Modes:
• The operation of the light is controlled by one button on the back of the light
• There is only one mode
• There is a momentary on mode
4) Charging Port:
• No charging port built into the light itself. Instead, there is a Micro-USB charging port built into the optional ZX110 battery
5) Battery and Charging:
• The light is powered by 2 alkiline AAA battery. It can also run on the Coast ZX110 lithium-ion rechargeable battery
• The ZX110 battery is a 10900 cell
• The ZX110 battery has a built-in Micro- USB charging port and a charging indicator on the top of the battery
• A solid red light indicates charging and a solid green light indicates the battery is fully charged
6) Performance On Lithium-ion Battery:
• I didn't notice any performance/brightness increase when running it on the optional ZX110 battery
7) Charge Time/Battery Satistics:
ZX110:
Rated Capacity: 600 mah
Tested Capacity: 653 mah
Built-In USB On Battery:
Charge Speed: 302 mah
Time: 2 hours 24 minutes
8) Final Thoughts:
This is a standard run of the mill pen light. Nothing special or specifically tailored here to note. The HP4 has a standard Bulls-Eye beam pattern with a hotspot in the center surrounded by a bit of spill. For me, the beam is something I do not prefer, as I prefer a smooth even beam. For that reason, I prefer the HP3r instead.
The HP4 is nearly identical to the G20 interms of build, size, and operation. The only differences being the HP4 being much brighter and having a Bulls-Eye beam pattern with a hotspot instead of the inspection beam pattern on the G20. Overall, it is a well built pen light, but I think it is priced a tad high.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my 10th HP4. I use rechargeable batteries and use these daily. I lose them every now and then as a mechanic, then quickly return to Coast for another.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Compact, rugged, bright, easy to pack for travel. I bought this primarily for emergency lighting during foreign travel, and usually carry it in my day-bag, or in my pocket. It's come in handy a few times.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Especially helpful during the power outage we had when the flashlight arrived. Cannot praise this light enough.
