Using Coast's Bulls-Eye Spot Beam, the HP4 Flashlight is a prime choice for technicians who are looking for a great penlight that shoots a spot beam downrange while having a transition halo flood that increases your side viewability.With Coast's commitment to quality, the HP4 Flashlight is impact resistant, weather resistant and its LED is virtually unbreakable. The HP4 Flashlight is backed by Coast's lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Tested and rated to ANSI/FL1 standards.Bulls - Eye Spot BeamThe Bulls-Eye Spot Beam is the same great light pattern that you find in spot mode on our Pure Beam Focusing System, but simply a fixed beam. It consists of the same extremely bright centered spot beam with a consistent transition halo Consists of an extremely bright, centered 'hot spot' and a very consistent transition halo to increase the effective viewing area. The Bulls-Eye Spot Beam is excellent for any type of work or recreational use, at a range up to 416 feet (127 meters).

Purchased a HP4 twenty years ago and use it daily for small engine repairs. I can look into the spark plug hole and other areas to do inspections. I recently purchased a new HP2R which is small and can clip to my hat or shirt pocket. I have a G450 and man that baby is super bright.

Small but bright

Super bright , great quality .great customer service.

Great little light!

Very good light and service with a missing part on the first order.

Super service

I like the coast flashlights I have purchased, the warranty is easy. Coast would get a five star or higher from me except for one annoying point.  The BLACK flashlight I received is a warranty replacement for the RED flashlight I originally purchased.  I purchased RED for a specific reason.  In my opinion I should receive like for like.  It's kind of a petty gripe I admit.  Other than that they have a fantastic product and great warranty.  I use my flashlight daily, every day, and have purchased multiple lights from coast and will buy more in the future.

Warranty gripe

Great little light thst i use dairy for vehicle inspections.

Great little light

Several coworkers use this light and we all love the small size and bright light. I bring mine everywhere including camping & hunting.

Great light for mechanics

Hands down best customer service and product out there.

100% best out there.

This may be the perfect penlight. Great aluminum body, a push button switch on the cap that actually works and it takes two AAA batteries. Enough light to see what you are looking for or where you are going. Small and light enough to put anywhere even a small tote. Pop it in your mouth for hands free without pulling your teeth out. Keep one under the front seat of the car and one in my go bag

Perfect pen light

Couldn't ask for a better travel light, easy to carry

Best for travel, took mine to Hatli  this year

i have had 2 of them the first lasted 8 months worked great loved the size perfect my side pouch the rubber covering the switch wore out 
purchased a second one it lasted 2 months the rubber came off probably wont purchase this product again

poor engineering

Bought this a couple years ago. Also bought the green box set one. That one got stolen but waiting until it is back in stock and buying another. Highly recommend! Buy from here and save $ don't pay big tool truck prices

Awesome!

This is a perfect pen light, durable, bright and functional.  Get one you won't be disappointed.

Love this one

I love the light, but I'd still like to get my old one fixed.

New light

Great little flashlight, pretty bright for what it is also

Pen light

Bought one of these off of the Snapon man. Love it so much that I bought 2 more from Coast

Love it

Light small powerful. But after 3 months using, battery melt into tube.

Good

Durable light. The beam works well in my automotive application. Easy to grip

Dueable, great beam

Use mine everyday, very happy with quality and price

Great flashlight

I have used coast HP-4 for 5 years.  I have had to have it replaced under warranty 3 times.
BUT understand that I use it probably 100 times each day and every day. I use it a lot and I use it hard, Slightly less on weekends but it is always in my bibs, except at church of course.  This is a reflection on both the solid dependable build and great customer service I have received over the years. I would buy this light even if it didn't have a life time warranty.  I am going to be buying one of each color soon so I always have a back up.

great light

Great light with great warranty!! Great performance from a small package!

You need this flashlight!

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.

All You Need To Know

Great light ! Great every day carry light . Battery life is pretty good !

Great light!

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.

Disappointed in the evolution.

VERY bright light for such a compact unit.  Very handy for quick, pinpoint illumination.

VERY bright compact light.

Great light for anyone on the move, bright and compact. I’ve used coast lights for years and this is my favorite

Nice flashlight

This is an ultra bright light for its size. Super compact, lightweight, sturdy, durable, and works really really well. I’ve used COAST products for years and this is definitely worth the price.

AMAZING AND COMPACT!

Great light for anyone on the move, bright and compact. I?ve used coast lights for years and this is my favorite
