Which one?
Coast lights are jewels. Nice just to look at.

No Coast lights for me, thanks - I want something that takes AA, AAA
or another commonly available anywhere and for cheap battery.

All the Coast flashlights I've seen take proprietary (odd)
batteries. Fry's Electronics sells Coast lights, but not the special
batteries they require - I take that as a bad omen.

For work, I have a Black Diamond 4-white-LED headband light that
takes three AAA's. And a three AA hand LED flashlight from REI, not
sure who made it - CMG, I think. The Pelican four AA at Costco looks
good, I'll probably grab one for the toolbag because it's a plastic
case.
