Handheld dual-colour LED torch / flashlight
Description
The Coast PX20 is a compact, dual-colour LED torch that combines five super-bright white LEDs with one red LED, providing a bright white beam for general illumination (rated around 315 lumens) and a red beam designed to help preserve night vision for tasks such as map reading, cockpit use or other low-light activities. The light uses COAST’s Bull’s-Eye Spot Beam / Max Beam Optic system to deliver a focused central spot with useful peripheral light, and it runs on three AAA alkaline batteries housed in a removable cartridge. The body is made from lightweight aluminium and is designed to be impact-resistant and weather-resistant, with water resistance specified to approximately IPX4 in retailer technical specifications. Separate side-mounted switches allow independent control of the white and red LEDs without cycling through modes. The PX20 is supplied with batteries (pre-installed in retail packaging) and, on some channels, a sheath, and is backed by COAST’s long-standing limited lifetime warranty and a 5-year warranty statement on the Medisave listing, with performance tested and rated to ANSI/FL1 standards.
Bnefits
- Dual-colour output: five white LEDs plus one red LED, allowing bright white illumination or low-intensity red light from the same torch.
- White LED mode provides approximately 315 lumens of output for general illumination and pre-flight or emergency tasks.
- Red LED mode helps preserve night vision, making it suitable for reading maps, cockpit use, astronomy and other low-light activities.
- Bull’s-Eye Spot Beam / Max Beam Optic system provides a focused central spot with a surrounding flood area for situational awareness.
- Compact and lightweight aluminium body designed for durability and everyday carry, with impact and weather resistance and water resistance quoted as IPX4 in technical specifications.
- Separate switches for white and red LEDs, allowing direct access to the desired colour without cycling through modes.
- Powered by three standard AAA alkaline batteries, commonly available and supplied with the product in retail packaging.
- Runtime quoted by retailers up to approximately 2 hours 45 minutes (around 1 hour 15 minutes on high output) depending on mode.
- Beam distance specified at approximately 142 metres (465 ft) for the white beam according to retailer listings.
- Backed by COAST’s limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, with Medisave showing a 5-year warranty statement, and tested to ANSI/FL1 flashlight performance standards.
Indications
- General-purpose handheld lighting for everyday tasks where a compact LED torch is required.
- Emergency and first-aid lighting applications, including emergency torches listed under Accident & Emergency / First Aid categories on medical supply sites.
- Pre-flight checks and cockpit use in aviation, using white light for pre-flight activities and red light when minimal cockpit illumination is required to maintain night vision.
- Map reading and navigation in low-light environments where preservation of dark adaptation is important.
- Outdoor activities such as camping, hiking or astronomy that benefit from a combination of bright white light and red night-vision-preserving light.
- Use by emergency services, paramedics, and other professional users who require a durable, weather-resistant compact torch with dual-colour output.

- Retailer listings (e.g. B&H Photo Video) indicate packaging variations such as boxed or sporting-goods clamshell presentation.
- Items included per B&H technical listing: Coast PX20 Bull’s-Eye Spot Beam White/Red LED Flashlight, sheath, 3 × AAA batteries, and documentation.
- Official instruction sheet references a removable battery cartridge and notes that the PX20 in packaging comes with batteries pre-installed.
- Some retailers emphasise that the product is supplied in consumer packaging with COAST warranty information included.
Usage
- Battery installation (from official Coast PX20 instruction sheet): turn the head of the light counter-clockwise to remove it from the body, remove the battery cartridge, place three AAA batteries into the cartridge in the direction indicated, replace the cartridge in the light, and screw the tail cap back on clockwise until completely closed.
- Note from instruction sheet: the PX20 in packaging comes with the batteries pre-installed.
- On/off operation (from instruction sheet): the PX20 has separate switches for each of the two colours; to activate the white light, press the grey or black textured switch (depending on body colour); to activate the red light, press the red switch.
- Use the white LED mode for tasks requiring bright illumination such as general inspection, pre-flight checks, and close or mid-range work.
- Use the red LED mode when minimal light is required and preservation of night vision is important, such as in aircraft cockpits or when reading maps in low-light environments.
- Ensure the tail cap is fully tightened after installing or replacing batteries to maintain electrical contact and water resistance.
- Maintenance (instruction sheet): wipe the external body with a cloth moistened with water or isopropyl alcohol; do not submerge the flashlight.
- Do not attempt to modify the light, optics or electronics; only replace batteries as described in the manufacturer instructions.
- Observe battery polarity markings on the cartridge when inserting or replacing AAA cells; use only appropriate AAA batteries as recommended by the manufacturer.
- Store the torch switched off when not in use, and avoid leaving it switched on unattended to prevent unnecessary battery drain.
