Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Coast HP7 LED Flashlight is a great size that is easy to carry, and packs the light output and runtime that is needed by those that rely on their light every day. A quick cycle switch allows you to select between a high output setting of 251 lumens or a low output of 58 lumens allowing you to choose the right level for your application. Coast's Pure Beam Focusing Optic System with Fingertip Speed Focus Control provides superior beam consistency from spot to flood, with no dark rings typically associated with focusing flashlights, and you can lock the beam focus in any position you want with our Beam Lock System. The Bulls Eye spot beam pattern gives you a great focused spot with a maximum beam distance of 196 meters (642 feet), while producing an outer ring of flood light which allows you to see a broader area to the sides. Built tough, an impact-resistant, lightweight aluminum casing resists rust and corrosion. Tested and rated to ANSI/FL1 standards, the HP7 also features an unbreakable LED and rubberized O-ring for reliable water resistance and durability. Backed by Coast's lifetime guarantee against defects in materials and workmanship.

Size Name:1317 Lumens|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Maybe it's a guy thing. There's just something very cool about having a BEAST of a light-source at your fingertips that just brings a smile to my face. (My wife on the other hand, doesn't share my fascination--and though she'll concede that this light is *bright,* all she can say is something along the lines of "Ooo... I can't wait to tell my friends on Facebook about your new light!" Followed by a wink.)
That's okay. I've had the COAST HP21 for all of a day now, and I love the thing.
The box arrived from Amazon, and initially I wasn't even too sure what had come. Given the size of the shipping box, it looked like there could be a microwave oven inside. The item's box was of course, smaller, but it was still pretty huge. The reason--the HP21 comes with a durable zip-shut clamshell carrying case that is significantly larger than the light itself. The case holds the light, two straps (shoulder and belt), clips for the shoulder strap, and room for four spare "D" cell batteries. Two elastic straps are sewn in place to prevent the light from inadvertently rolling out.
The water and impact-resistant light is constructed from high-grade aluminum, helping to keep the weigh in check (it's a shade under 2.8 pounds with the batteries) while at the same time being extraordinarily durable. I have no doubt that this thing would make a perfectly usable police baton.
The light output is insane. I also own the compact COAST HP7 light (200 lumens), which had no problem lighting up a stop sign a quarter mile away. This puts out 1317 lumens and the stop sign lit up in the dark like it was lit from the inside. I was operating a telescope at a public "Sidewalk Astronomy" event last night, and at the end of the evening as my friends and I were putting our equipment away, I pulled out this light to make sure that we hadn't left anything behind. The scene bordered on amusing. They were walking around with flashlights, and then ***BOOM!!!*** I turned on the HP21 and it was like daytime. The looks on their faces was worth the price of admission!
There are three light settings... bright/dim and strobe. Plus the beam can be focused to a (relatively) small spot, or a wide angle by pulling the bell back and forth about 1/2 inch. Even at the dim setting it's still incredibly bright.
With a MSRP of nearly 300 dollars (though it's about 25% less here on Amazon), this is not going to be purchased on a whim. I was fortunate enough to receive mine via the Amazon Vine program, and it may just be one of my favorite Vine products.
I have posted three images on the main product page showing the exterior of the carrying case, the case contents, and a size comparison between this light, the compact HP7, and a Mag-Lite.
Highly Recommended!

Size Name:251 Lumens|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I am a former law enforcement officer very familiar with these types of flashlights. I have used Surefire and Maglites for years. This light is better than any Maglite I ever used and better than most Surefire's. Given it's price point in comparison to competition, it is a strong buy.
Product packaging is similiar to opening an Ipad or IPhone. Very classy and well presented in what I consider a presentation box (in other words, it's not blister packed). I was so impressed I was going to post an unboxing video, but someone beat me to it. It comes with a lanyard, durable pouch with dual belt loop, and batteries (4 AAA). The flashlight build is very impressive with a perfectly machined (no burs or tool marks) aluminum casing with inlaid knurled patterns making it non slip. The light is compact and ergonomic and easily used as a close quarter hand-held weapon if needed. It has a solid weight and feel, even balanced very well. The light is very bright with two settings (low and high). The focusing mechanism is unusual, but innovative, using a push pull method with a lock(a turn) providing spot (with a ring; also called a bulls eye pattern) or flood light. Both patterns were very accurate with the flood light providing enough light to illuminate a large room evenly. Though another reviewer reported a problem locking the focus, I did not have such a problem. The focus action is smooth, but I imagine sand or debris could potentially interfere with the action of the mechanism (when compared to the traditional twist mthods). A recessed, rubber button at the end of the light activates the power between high and low with each push. Manufacturer specs indicate the flashlight produces 251 lumens of light at the high-power setting giving you up to 5 hours 45 minutes or usage alkaline batteries. At the low-power setting the flashlight produces 58 lumens which will give you about 10 hours of usage. I can confirm the brightness. However, I cannot confirm battery duration yet (I have not had it long enough).
As I previously mentioned, the power button is recessed at the rear of the light and is sealed by a heavy duty rubber cover. This makes the light usable "tactically" for those of you who are shooters. The battery compartment is sealed with a silicone ring of substantial quality making the product highly water resistant. The entire compartment, as the rest of the light, seems to be machined to exacting precision standards with equivocation. I was very impressed. In my opinion, quality control exceeds Maglite by a long-shot and is equal to or just better than Surefire.
I highly recommend this light. I can see how a few of these, spread throughout a house, could serve as emergency lighting during power interruptions. I like the light so much, I just ordered two more to keep around for emergencies.
-------------------------------
05/25/12 EDIT: I just had a chance to use the light in "real world" conditions last night and tested it outside in a street and then a wooded environment. I am even more impressed with the power of the beam and flood as well as usability. The flood will light up a huge area, even at low power, in an even manner. If you hand the light from a tree, you will find awesome results. After handling the flashlight, everyone I was with said they were going to buy this light.

Size Name:251 Lumens|Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
The Coast HP7 is the best flashlight I've ever owned, its LED light is phenomenal with the option to quickly switch between a high and a low output, using the same hand holding it. Powering the Coast HP7 is as simple as pushing a rubber button at the top of the handle. By the way, this power switch might be useful to send international Morse code, in case of an emergency. The switch is very sensitive, so if one presses it briefly, it allows the intermittency needed for the code. Most of the time, we will only need a firm push to light it up. Along with this review, I'm posting a picture of the Coast HP7.
It also comes with a clip-on case and a tie-in in handle.
One issue that I noticed, and I think is worthy of sharing, is the fact that the design of the Coast HP7 has a flaw which eventually make the batteries loose inside the cylinder and later hot when the flashlight is on. I discovered this when I tipped the flashlight over my desk by accident, it was off, and when I put it back on, it worked fine, but after a few minutes it started to get extra hot too fast.
I could feel the heat in the handle. I turned it off, opened it to check out that the batteries (which, by the way, were still new). Then I noticed that a couple of batteries were still making contact with the electric connections, but not all the way in, I removed all the batteries, placed them back in, being sure they were set right, and put the flashlight back on. It didn't overheated again.
So, if you ever drop it, or carry it around for a while, simply check that the batteries are in the right place before turning it on, and if you forget, and it start to get warm, turn it off immediately and check the batteries out.
Other than that, this flashlight is excellent; I like its size, and portability. It comes in a really nice box that would make a nice gift for anybody, since this is the type of tool one always need handy. I'm keeping it on my nightstand in case of an outrage in the middle of the night; it also helps to light under the kitchen sink or in dark corners in closets.
