First time poster, long time reader. I've got a few nice lights, but my first LED that I ever bought was a Coast Led Lenser Mini Tac Torch V. A nice little keychain $15 Nichia that runs on 4 button batteries that I bought when I had to buy something with a gift certificate at a store that was going out of business. I had dropped the light a few months back from a foot or two and it became intermittent to not working at all. Long story short I finally emailed Coast customer service and they were happy to send out a replacement. I never see Coast get too much press on here so I thought it would be a nice return gesture to put in a good word on coming through with a small, but meaningfull fullfillment of warranty. They have some intersting products and I think that the little "tac torch" has a very nice beam for a little button-light lamp. They seem to put most of their research into the focus and lense systems. I think that if they brought their lights closer to what Inova offers for design and ruggedness, include more specs on their products (not just runtime, give lumens, LED type etc) and use their lense and focus systems, they would have some real winners. Their retail reach is already very strong. But anyways, kudos to them for sending me a working replacement. Even decent cust service is tough to find these days and you often dont expect anything but a "case#"
