Coast XPH30R 1200 Lumen USB-C Rechargeable Dual Power Headlamp with Twist Focus Beam and Magnetic Base, Black

This light changed my night hiking experience!This unit is extremely durable. As a Marine, this reminds me of milspec gear that I would use in the Corps. It has a very solid metal chassis and a great hand feel when unscrewing the caps or dialing in the light. It's also water proof or extremely water resistant, as I've used it in the rain several times without issue.Being able to adjust both the angle and the light coverage (narrow beam, area flood light, or something in between) is an absolute game changer. Couple that with a very positive feel as you adjust and dial in your preference and this thing simply rocks! It requires very little attention and becomes second nature. This thing lights up the are like it's daytime. The power button is extremely easy to find and use as well. It is a smidge heavier then some of my lightweight or ultralight headlamps (ie. Nitecore) but the battery life is phenomenal and the ease of use combined with the amount of light is top-notch.Finally, the rechargeable battery that is built in is awesome. Not only is there a USB-C recharge port on the unit that allows the battery to be recharged without taking it out but the battery itself can be removed and recharged also via USB-C. That also means you can have backup batteries, pre-charged that can be taken on a hike or camping trip.This thing's built to last and even though I was hesitant because the price point I'm extremely happy with the purchase!

If I could give this over 5 stars, I would. I absolutely LOVE this headlamp. It lasts for over a week with periodic use, and lasts most of the day with heavy use. This is the brightest headlamp I have seen so far in my career, even brighter than the very overpriced Milwaukee headlamps, and the charge lasts longer too. My only gripe is that it does take about 5/6 hours to charge from fully dead to fully charged. But, with the convenience that the light comes off the band easily, you can set the light part aside to charge without having to take the band off your hard hat. Finally, I like the focusing beam because it adds a bit more light to precise operations. I love this headlamp so much that when I lost it, I was heartbroken for days until my new one showed up in the mail. If I ever lose this one, I’ll buy the same one again and again. I will not buy another headlamp, this is the one for me.

Got this as a warehouse deal, $39. Could tell it was opened previously, but everything was there and there is no issues. It's a solid little headlamp altogether, not just for the price. It's all aluminum, both endcaps have O-ring seals, it has a magnet on one endcap, the strap works good, although no center/over the head strap. It is adjustable up/down once you have it on the carrier/headband, and seems to hold in place very well with as much as I've used it so far. It can be charged battery in, OR battery out, both via USB-C and, both the lamp and the battery themselves have charge indicator lights. It has an adjustable lens that goes from flood to spot, and, spot mode still provides some peripheral lighting. It switches on at medium brightness, then cycles thru high then low after each press of the power button, if you hold it, you get "turbo" mode. I can't yet speak for the runtime on this battery, but others have claimed it's very good for a 2600mah battery. It is an 18650 button top battery, for those that are interested in getting higher capacity batteries like myself. I would recommend that you only use quality batteries with protection circuits in them. I do have several other lights advertised @ 1000 lumens (Streamlight Stinger DS HPL) that seem a fair amount brighter and have much better spot light range on the 1000 lumen modes. But, those lights are 3-4x this much $. That is not knocking this light, just saying if you want something VERY bright, there may be better options, but most likely will be 2-3x this much $. If you are looking for something to keep in a backpack as a "just incase" like myself, I think this is a great option for around $40. It would probably also be good for mechanics, hvac techs, home repairs, running, and really any other general chores you need 2 hands for. Overall, I think it will be a great little light to add to my inventory.

Simply the best headlamp I have ever owned. Reliable, easy to use, easy to charge, comfortable ... worth every penny

Not the most comfortable wear, but fabulous features, quality, and value. Love the moon glow feature. Just enough illumination to see without blinding anybody. The one button super bright blast is a nice defensive and emergency feature also. Excellent headlamp for very challenging environments as it is built rock solid with several durability features. I have yet to use it long enough for the battery life to be any issue whatsoever. I have no idea how many days it would keep burning.

I bought this headlamp to use for projects around that house and have been very pleased with it. It appears to be sturdy and well-made. The head strap is comfortable and once I put it on, I forget that I am wearing it. The light will snap out of the headband for times when you need to shine the light somewhere your head won't fit. When I read about that feature, I didn't think that would be very helpful to me, but then while changing a car battery, I dropped a wrench in my car engine compartment. It was helpful to be able to hold the light in my hand to search all the nooks and crannies of the engine compartment to find the tool. The headlamp has various brightness levels and the ability to focus or broaden the beam. I use the headlamp more often than I thought that I would and find that it is easy to put it on and wear it so that it is available in case light is needed.One Year (Almost) UpdateI like this headlamp better now than when I first reviewed it. It comes in very handy and I use it more often than I ever expected. I not only use it for venturing into dark places, but find it helpful when sitting at a desk or table working on something with small parts. I find that it charges quickly and seems to last a long time between charges. I highly recommend this headlamp.
