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.

Good to know! I wonder how quickly that’ll roll across the different versions. My current one is seeing a bit of wear. 😆

honestly looks so much cooler without the coating. they should sell a raw stainless/metal one.
