Olight Lights the Way at SHOT Show 2025 with Pioneering Innovations

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Olight, a leading portable lighting brand, showcased its unwavering spirit of innovation at SHOT Show 2025 in Las Vegas. This event is renowned worldwide, focuses on the shooting sports, hunting, law enforcement, and related industries.

Olight continues to leverage professional trade shows to engage with global audiences and showcase its cutting-edge technologies and brand vision. Following a successful debut at CES 2025, where Olight introduced the Ostation X—the world’s first and smartest 3-in-1 battery charger—the brand seamlessly transitioned to the SHOT Show. At this event, the Baldr Series, Seeker Series, Warrior Series, and other popular products representing Olight’s most well-received shooting and Everyday Carry (EDC) lights will be prominently featured.

This is also the first time Olight has showcased its latest developed material, OAL™, also known as O-Aluminum, at SHOT Show.

This innovative material, featured in the new Arkfeld Ultra, not only ensures exceptional durability but also elevates the user experience, meeting the high standards demanded by EDC enthusiasts and professionals alike.

SHOT Show 2025 also became a vital hub for Olight to engage with B2B partners worldwide. The event attracted attendees from across Europe as well as regions in the Asia-Pacific, such as South Africa and Argentina, allowing Olight to connect with customers, exchange insights, and build stronger relationships. Furthermore, SHOT Show 2025 marked a breakthrough in expanding Olight’s top offline sales channels in the U.S., setting the stage for future growth and collaboration.
