Streamlight Launches the ProTac 2.0 HP

Friday, July 11th, 2025

Optimized for Peak Performance, this Handheld Light Delivers High Lumen Output and Significantly Increased Candela over the Previous Model

EAGLEVILLE, PA, July 10, 2025 – Streamlight® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting, introduced the ProTac® 2.0 HP tactical flashlight, delivering 85,000 candela for powerful downrange illumination, nearly five times the distance output of its predecessor, the ProTac 2.0. This new rechargeable light produces 2,000 lumens for situations where exceptional brightness is needed.

The ProTac 2.0 HP offers the latest in LED technology and provides three operating modes – High, Medium and Low. On High, it delivers 2,000 lumens and 85,000 candela; on the Medium setting, it provides 550 lumens and 22,500 candela; on Low, it offers 100 lumens and 4,400 candela. Run times range from 31 hours on Low to 2.5 hours on High. The light’s strobe features a two-hour run time.

The light also features a TEN-TAP® programmable switch, which allows for user selection from among three programs: high/strobe/low (factory default); high only; or low/medium/high.

The ProTac 2.0 HP is powered by a Streamlight SL-B50®, a 4,900mAh protected Lithium-Ion USB rechargeable battery that is accessed by the light’s sliding sleeve. The battery is keyed to ensure proper alignment of the USB-C charging port, and features LED status lights to indicate charging status, including red for charging and green for fully charged. An integrated safety circuit protects the battery from accidental overcharge or discharge.

“This latest addition to the ProTac® series of tactical handheld lights provides first responders, security units, outdoor enthusiasts, and others a light that combines balanced brightness – both distance illumination and ultra-bright light – without sacrificing run times,” said Streamlight President, Michael F. Dineen. “Users will appreciate the convenience and ease of charging the battery pack either inside or outside of the light.”

Fabricated from 6000 series machined aircraft aluminum with an anodized finish, the ProTac 2.0 HP also features an anti-roll head and a gasket-sealed lens. Its multi-function, push-button tactical tail switch permits one-handed operation of the momentary, variable intensity or strobe modes. The light also comes with a sturdy, removable pocket clip, holster and USB-C charge cord.

The ProTac 2.0 HP is 6.10 inches in length and weighs 8.25 ounces with one included SL-B50 rechargeable battery. The light has an IP67-rated design for dust-tight and waterproof operation to one meter for 30 minutes and is impact resistance tested to two meters.

Available in black, the ProTac 2.0 HP has an MSRP of $218.40. It comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Wednesday, July 9th, 2025

San Antonio, TX – July 8, 2025 – Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW), maker of the World’s Finest Fighting Rifles, is proud to announce several key developments from Q2 2025 that mark a period of unprecedented growth and expansion across military, law enforcement, and commercial markets.

To support the company’s continued upward trajectory, SOLGW has made two strategic hires: Sean Murphy has joined as Vice President of Sales and Marketing, bringing a decade and a half of industry experience in sales, marketing, training and business development roles. Scott Petersen also joins the team at Director of Special Projects, having recently retired from the prestigious U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, and has been working on a range of initiatives from increasing production capacity to pushing the edge of performance on new product development projects.

The company has also seen ever growing presence with law enforcement agencies, with over 60 new agencies adopting SOLGW rifles in the first half of 2025 alone. Among the major successes is the delivery of more than 375 EXO3 rifles for patrol use with a major southeastern US agency, representing one of the largest single-agency deployments in the company’s history.

As demand for Sons of Liberty rifles grows, so too does the reach of our Platinum Dealer Network. In June, we proudly welcomed several elite retailers to the fold, including:

Real Street Tactical (FL)

Midwest Shooting Centers (7-locations across Midwest)

Ray’s Sporting Goods (TX)

Texas Gun Experience (TX)

XCal Shooting Sports (VA)

Shark Coast Tactical (FL)

…and more to be announced.

These partners represent the best in service, training, and community presence—and reflect the same standards of excellence SOLGW demands in our products.

Adding to this momentum is the launch of the MK1 Rifle, SOLGW’s next generation fighting rifle platform, engineered for unmatched reliability and shooting performance, with a multitude of refinements that make the MK1 a premiere option for both professional and civilian applications.

“We’re scaling without compromise,” said Nate Horvath, CEO of Sons of Liberty Gun Works. “Everything we do—from dealer partnerships to law enforcement support to military programs—is driven by a commitment to mission-first performance. Our growth is a direct result of that focus, and we’re proud to be earning the trust of professionals across the country.”

“This is a pivotal moment for Sons of Liberty,” said Mike Mihalski, founder and Chief Product Officer. “We’ve always said we build rifles for people who rely on them when it matters most. That mission is resonating across agencies, units, and responsible citizens alike. We’re grateful—and we’re just getting started.”
