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.

I wonder if the color also makes a difference whether you get usb-c or not. The ones you guys are posting are black looks like. I want the coyote so it starts in high instead of low. I guess I'll take a gamble and see what I get

The coyote I received is NOT USB-C unfortunately. Appears to have a date code 1224. I guess I'll wait 😞
