Product Review
Designed specifically for law enforcement and military users, the Coast TX9R flashlight includes the essential features that tactical operators require, combining durable aircraft-grade aluminium construction with a blinding 300 lumens of light output. It is powered by rechargeable lithium ion batteries or AAA batteries (with an included battery cartridge) for flexibility. It includes two lithium ion rechargeable batteries, alkaline battery cartridge with four AAA batteries, USB charging cord, AC and DC adapters, sheath, belt clip, and wall mount.
The Long Range Focusing Optic gives the operator the ability to easily illuminate and scan nearby distances with a crisp edge-to-edge Broad View Flood Beam or then focus it down to the X-Range Spot Beam that stretches extremely far. The X-Range Spot Beam can provide good viewing all the way up to 2,240ft (683m) and the Broad View Flood Beam provides a consistent circle of light up to 7.5ft (2.3m) in diameter at a distance of 6ft (1.8 metres). This has been extensively tested by MT’s team, and we are very pleased with it. At 7.2oz (204g) it lies well in hand and the runtime of almost seven hours had us in awe.
