Question - wristband for impulse buy

[Coast2Coat2024]

Yesterday on a whim, I decided that I needed a more modern flashlight and did some quick internet research (which, admittedly, was not very thorough). I ended up ordering a Coast XPR14R. It arrived today. It's a tad bigger and heavier than I expected. But whatever.

Here's my question. It looks like you can attach a wristband through the end of it. I like the idea of a flashlight with a wristband. But I didn't find wristbands being offered as accessories on the Coast website. Does anyone have any suggestions for where I should look for something that fits and is inexpensive and dependable? Anything to avoid? Thanks. New Guy.

Just order a length of Paracord and tie your own.

If Coast neither includes nor offers one as an accessory (rather odd), I think you'll find they are widely available; both in 'generic' offerings, and those sold by other flashlight manufacturers for use with their products, such as this (just as a random search result example). You need not fabricate anything, unless of course you are so inclined;-) I wish you were standing here, as I could offer you a choice of many - NIP. They've shipped with many of the lights I've bought, but I've never used one in my applications, although I absolutely appreciate their purpose and utility and understand how they would be ideal for many users.

Thanks. My mind went blank for a moment. I forgot about simple wrist lanyards. Just bought some off Amazon for $5.
