I got this 6/7 months ago. Still works, but it’s super dull. Like my spit is probably shinier then the flashlight at this point.
I’m not an idiot. I know how to follow instructions. I bought this flashlight and the batteries died. I went to replace them and saw it said to remove the end cap to allow the batteries to come out. I did that and I am met with the plastic button but no way to replace the batteries. I fooled around with it for some time trying to turn and twist areas to get to the battteries. I searched online all of telling me to remove the end with the red ring to expose the batter pack. I even though maybe I’m stuipd and this is a rechargeable one. So I looked for the recharge port. I can’t fine it anywhere. So I am stuck with a lovely metal stick. Do not buy this piece of crap
I love my g32. I carry it everyday. It was a warranty replacement for a g34. A few days after I got mine in I hit a deer on the way to work early in the morning. And my g32 faithfully got me through it. Then that evening we had the worst snow and ice storm of the year. Ice broke hundreds of power lines in half many without power for over a week. Without my g32 I wouldn’t have been able to refill generators for my neighbors and I in the middle of the night and early mornings. By God’s grace we got power back in 5 days. Some had to wait longer. Thank you for making a great light! Keep up the good work!
When I bought the G32 light, I thought it would’ve been just like any other light. It works for a while and then gives up, but I use a flashlight daily considering the job I do. The G32 light is just amazing. I can hook it onto my pants and it’s not noticeable or it gets in the way, when I have to do my jobs .The G32 helps me do my job perfect
Best light I've had for inspecting. Love how easy it is to use and it's awesome to take the clip off and switch to the opposite side so you can decide how you want to clip it in your pocket
The flashlight will not release my battery. I have tried everything. This flashlight is now only good for being used as a makeshift hammer at this point.
I had mine for almost 2 years use it 5 days a week before it stopped working bought another one the same model and it didnt last a week.
Coast Lifetime products are the best, they mean what thet say
First day at work with this sucker. I have carried a well known brand of flashlight for about 10 years. Upgraded as they SLOWLY rolled out. Was never truly impressed, and it required aftermarket parts to have the same functionality as the g32 stock. I work for a Municipal water department and frequently need a strong flashlight to look down gate valves in roadway to lineup the shut off key. They ate typically anywhere from 6-10' deep. I need the light to work in the middle of the day when the sun is out. Wow was I impressed on day 1! It also fits snuggly into the holster on my multitool pouch. (another deal breaker for me) The G32 is constructed well and plenty bright. I only wish I'd purchased it with the rechargeable battery.
I've had this light for a few years now and it works great. I usually take it with me at night when I walk the dog. Very bright and can see very well at night with both settings. Only thing I would change would be that you could somehow switch between low and high mode with a switch instead of cycling between the two every time you turn the light on and off. That would be great because I like to turn the light on and off quite a bit. Other that that the light has been great! I also had my light warrantied once a couple years ago because I dropped the light from waist high and stopped working. They sent a new light without a fuss and have had no issues since.
