Usually ships in 1 business days | | Only 1 left in stock, order soon! | | | | | | The Coleman 4D Dual Action WideBeam Flashlight is like two lights in one. Use the focused beam for practical path lighting, or the innovative WideBeam to shed a 140° angle of area lighting, more closely matching the human field of peripheral vision. The WideBeam's Xenon blue-tipped bulb provides a whiter light, for greater visibility. The light's flat surface base allows you to stand the Flashlight upright, for hands-free area lighting. The soft rubber handle makes it easy to carry, and the shock-absorbing head means it will withstand heavy use. The Dual Action WideBeam Flashlight runs on 4 D-cell batteries (not included). Limited 3-year warranty. | | | |

 Not durable; un-reliable Sep 19, 2008
By RockLobster
I wanted a flashlight-lantern combination for power outages and camping. I found only two models of this type in my area and went with the Coleman. I've used it three times and on the last time in my time of need: (Hurricane Ike and the ensuing power failure), this thing failed me. Thought it was the battery but it was not. It is the switch. The switch won't activate the light. Luckily, I had another one but a different model that I've used for many years that keeps coming through for me. The fit and finish of the coleman seems flimsy....almost frail. This product shouldn't use the coleman name. Get something else that is more durable and reliable.

 Best light for blackouts Aug 20, 2006
By noise
I have one of these stashed in each room and in the trunk of the car. In rolling blackout season you can safely illuminate a surprisingly wide area with one light. They're very bright and the base is stable so you can easily set them upright to shine up at the ceiling like a lamp without them falling over. The fact that it doubles as both a flashlight and a lantern makes this product a lot more useful than the standard Coleman lantern (or a regular flashlight) to me.
For the other reviewer: to insert batteries you will need a screwdriver or a coin. There's a big screw toward the front of the flashlight that you remove to pop off the main light and insert the batteries.

Disappointed Jul 10, 2008
By S. Romeo
We have a dual action Coleman flashlight that is over 10 years old and is still going great. A few plastic pieces are missing, so we decided to get a newer version. We ordered this item. It's very attractive. But when we loaded it up with batteries, only the lantern was working, so we thought that the bulb for the flashlight was bad. No problem we can change that. Before we got to do that however, the flashlight was sitting on a table in "off" mode, and all of a sudden the lantern turned on by itself. The control switch could not turn it off. We had to remove the batteries. I eventually tested the bulb in our other older reliable Coleman and nothing is wrong with it. So it means that the flashlight part is not working. It has a label on it which says "China", so maybe that is where it was made. Beware!!

 I'd give it a 5 for the lighting, BUT... Jun 03, 2011
By Riverwild
After reading the reviews here I finally figured out why my flashlight wouldn't work. After a two week camping trip it suddenly stopped working when I replaced the batteries. I thought the bulb blew. Fortunately I hadn't pulled the trigger on the new fluorescent tube yet. I was reading the reviews and decided to try to move the contacts up. I had to stick a long fork in to reach them, but I jacked them up and VOILÀ! It works! Unfortunately, it only works when held sideways. It shuts off when standing up. I realized I had replaced cheap batteries with much better heavy duty batteries and they were pressing the contacts down too far. I switched the heavy duty batteries out for some lighter ones and it works just fine now.I love this flashlight but if I can't fix the contact problem permanently, this light will be off the camping list for good. Too bad, Coleman used to be a name you could trust for equipment, but the new gear isn't made as well as the old stuff, and I want gear that works when I need it to work.

 REVISED: My second one ... giving up on the flashlight part May 27, 2008
By S. Gerber

EDITED ON Jan.7 2010 CHANGING RATING FROM 5-STARS TO 2.
-------------------------------------------------------
I bought this product a couple years ago and was quite happy with it until it stopped working.
Then bought a second and it lasted a year or so before the light bulb stopped working. The lantern still works great and is good for blackouts but I wanted it to be a flashlight as well.
I inspected the bulb carefully and saw that the filament was intact. So I decided to call Coleman support. This was recently (Jan. 2010).
The support fellow told me the bulb should be fine and the problem is that the D batteries are a bit heavy for their supporting contacts at the bottom of the case. He wanted me to pull up on those contacts (basically bend them) until the batteries stopped rattling. He insisted the switch was likely OK but I question that.
Anyway, never got it working and decided to give up. Might have tried a new bulb but he said they were proprietary and I'd have to order them from Coleman.
So I'd give it 0 stars as a flashlight and 4 as a lantern.
Just bought an LED flashlight from Dorcy and an LED lantern from Rayovac. Each, in itself, is far superior to this Coleman and gets very high reviews from Amazon customers.
See:
Dorcy 41-4750 180 Lumen High Flux LED Cyber Light Flashlight with Batteries
Rayovac SE3DLN Sportsman Extreme 300-Lumen LED Lantern
The Coleman rep said they discontinued the dual beam flashlight so Amazon likely won't have it much longer.
Thanks for reading ... Sam
