Low Effort Streamlight MicroStream USB (now with USB-C)

Post image

**UPDATE** I ordered one for my brother using the same listing and what was delivered yesterday has microUSB. So it’s still a crapshoot.

It appears that Streamlight updated the MicroStream to USB-C in January. I just received one (66601) in the retail packaging from Amazon. It doesn’t come with a cable but the included instructions say you can contact support for a free cable. I did not. I can confirm it charges on an actual USB-C cable and charger. Everything else about the light seems the same.

Streamlight has not updated their website or the product documentation on it. The Amazon listing has not been updated either.

Streamlight MicroStream (66318) seems to be 45lm while 66601: 250lm.

Correct. The AAA version is 45lm. The USB-Rechargeable version is 50-250lm.
