Coast COAHX5 HX5 Pure Beam Focusing Pocket Light LED Torch, Slide Focus

The Coast HX5 is a compact pocket torch with the Pure Beam Focusing System and Slide Focus: push or pull the slide to move between a flood beam and a spot beam with one hand (manufacturer-stated). A two-way clip fits to a pocket in either direction or to the bill of a hat (manufacturer-stated).

It runs on one AA alkaline battery, which is included, and Coast says it also works with rechargeable Zithion-X, NiMH and lithium 14500 batteries (manufacturer-stated). Light output depends on the battery type (manufacturer-stated). Coast describes it as impact resistant and weather resistant, with an LED that is virtually unbreakable, and says it is tested and rated to ANSI/FL1 standards (manufacturer-stated).
