COAST® G23 120 Lumen Alkaline Dual Power Magnetic LED Penlight with C.O.B. Area Light

This flashlight has come in handy more times than I can count. I purchased it mainly for the flood light on the side and it's magnetic ability and it has not let me down. I can mount it to a network cabinet with the flood light shining on the back of a patch panel and actually see what I'm doing while doing punch downs for new drops. The regular pen light aspect works well too, however, I tend to use the side floodlight more.

Compacta y con una luminosidad excelente para hacer inspecciones en tableros de circuitos o cualquier necesidad que se tenga, y las luz led que tres por un costado esta más que sobrada para iluminar un área mayor

Lanterna muito leve e patética de usar. Cabe noBolso da calça e não atrapalha nenhum movimento. O imã que fica na presilha é bem forte e mantém a lanterna em posição. A luz lateral da barra de led é muito forte e ilumina uma área bem significativa. E a luz vermelha também é bem forte. A luz padrão é bem coçada e ajuda a ver detalhes e ligares de difícil acesso. A construção da lanterna é bem sólida, feita de alumínio e com pintura bem resistente. Quando a minha lanterna chegou as pilhas que acompanham o kit estavam descarregadas. Seria bom se o vendedor conseguisse disponibilizar as baterias recarregáveis da marca para essa lanterna. Ai o kit seria excelente. No geral estou bem satisfeito com o produto.

I purchased this light to replace a G20 that didn't survive a wash cycle in my coveralls. I had been quite happy with the inspection beam on the G20, but often needed something brighter to light up a larger area. The G23 is the ideal combination of inspection beam for close up work and C.O.B. light for general area lighting. I like the magnet attached to the pocket clip as it allows for placement of the switch on the end cap rather than the side, as in most lights that have a magnet on the end cap.I have found the magnet to be strong enough for most applications and doesn't add a lot of bulk to the clip. The cob module does stick up from the body of the light and only time will tell how that fairs in daily use. I have used the light for a week now and haven't noticed any issues with the module location, but do wonder if the lens will be more susceptible to damage from dropping or rubbing on rough surfaces. I did purchase Panasonic rechargeable AAA batteries to use with the light but at this point haven't determined battery life. Overall I'm happy with the performance of this light and would recommend.

everything was great including my expectations but within the first few days it's managed to become faulty.. occasionally it will work as normal but usually it works at seemingly 1/2 - 2/3 capacity? and will not stay on the red selection it will immediately flicker to the next option...:( I really wanted to give this 5 was very sad and still am I've gone back to my old torch
