    Have been really happy with Streamlight for over 15 years.

    I got into law enforcement in the late 90's. We had the large rechargeable Streamlights in our squads. Loved them. We also started getting the stingers that we carries on our duty belts. Back then the only two real lights out there for our duty belts were either a Surefire 6P or the stinger. Back in the day the most we got out of them were about 100 lumen. Boy how times have changed. I couldn't tell you how many times I've used Streamlight to clear buildings, search cars or light up darken corners. I trusted my life to them for over 20 years. Though I'm out of LE now, I still carry a small Protec today.

    Great light review 👌!!! The second light would be good for law enforcement work. 28 years in law enforcement taught me you can never have enough light. Thank you, brother!

  • @CarlPapa88
    @CarlPapa88 Před 2 měsíci

    Good comparison Sir. I'd upload 5:56 to 7:50 as a short. It shows the short 'n sweet long distance comparison really well.
    Was checking into Goonbeam's Long v1 & v2. Shows the "too much candela" balance you're talking about.

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před 2 měsíci

      I appreciate it!! And thanks for the suggestion on the short. If you want to see a good video on the Goon Beam, check out the channel "FocusTripp." He does a good detailed video on it. Tell him I sent you! Lol

      It's been a great light for me as well. The Pro is definitely an improvement though.

    I have had many different Streamlight handheld lights all good . I had a Protac Railmount it was utter garbage, and it flickered. I have an original TLR7 that has been excellent though I would like the updated models betterI would assume.

  • @VengefulWrath
    @VengefulWrath Před 2 měsíci

    Bought one for my survival kit 10 years ago. I just put it on my 12-gauge Mossberg 590 Shockwave. I shoot heavy recoil loads, nothing wimpy. I'm going to the range in a week to test the endurance. As far as flashlights are concerned, the Protac is a battery vampire. Only negative about it so far.

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před 2 měsíci +1

      This is the brand new one. It sounds like you probably have the older Protac. Thanks for watching.

  • @vingazole3866
    @vingazole3866 Před měsícem

    Great review and awesome light! Anyone know, if the Arisaka tail cap adapter work on the XLX Pro ? The one for run a unity/surefire switch? It doesn’t fit the 2.0. But not sure of the pro version!
    Thanks

  • @spankyt10
    @spankyt10 Před 3 měsíci +2

    Did they solve the flicker the original HLX had? I had to stretch my tailcap spring on mine to solve it, it was only intermittent, but annoying, solid light other than that. I’ve got several of their handheld lights and a TLR1-HL, all have been solid to date. I’ll have to pick up an HLX Pro at some point.

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před 3 měsíci +4

      I have 4 HLX lights. Three on rifles and one hand held and have never experienced a flicker issue. But yea..the Pro is solid!!

    • @johnyarnall5882
      @johnyarnall5882 Před 2 měsíci

      There are allot of knock offs out there of the Streamlight lights and save for surefire. I actually have one of the knock off surefire x300 ultras.
      It’s more common than you’d think unfortunately even finding them on Amazon!

  • @jklop7841
    @jklop7841 Před 4 dny

    Lights are awesome. But, I’ve had their tape switches fail multiple times.

    What hand guard do you use? it’s real nice

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před 2 měsíci +1

      On that rifle, it's a custom one that's made specifically for Cox Arms USA.
      I believe the only way you can get it without buying a complete rifle, is in the builders set alnk.to/7BerahX

  • @bemo4313
    @bemo4313 Před 25 dny

    I think the Protac 2.0 is a better product, at least for home defense. Wider beam, better peripheral view.

  • @Abyssdiver
    @Abyssdiver Před měsícem

    I don't care for the plug in tail cap. Too much that could go wrong snagging it on a bush, tree branch or anything really to unplug it. That is the reason I will still use the OG version

  • @Lily-oz2dq

    What do you think of streamlifht rechargeable batteries?

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I use the 18650 equivalents all the time! And while I just started using their CR123a equivalent, they seem solid as well.

  • @joshs2138
    @joshs2138 Před měsícem

    I was surprised to find out this and the 2.0 are made in china!

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před měsícem

      I believe all of their lights are. Most flashlights are either made in China or have Chinese LED's or circuitry in them at minimum. You're hard pressed to find any 100% American made electronic device at all. I don't care if it's a toaster or a red dot or flashlight.

  • @Jim-su7en
    @Jim-su7en Před měsícem

    It’s the “Pro” model right? So Streamlight jacks up the price and deletes the the dual function tape switch forcing their customers to pay extra to get one. How very Pro of them

    • @RTTGunsGear
      @RTTGunsGear  Před měsícem

      Puts a better tape switch, a better tail cap, mote overall options, and a ton higher candela, for a very small amount more. Thanks for playing.
