SO GOOD ITS SCARY? USB Rechargeable Streamlight MicroStream

God I wish this light had strobe.

I’ll buy one when it’s usb C

Can you use a standard AAA battery as well as the rechargeable battery that comes with it?

Bought one in brown because this was EXACTLY what my grandmother needed, thank you.

In the manual it says it charges in the light. Does it really?

streamlight being American made is a major selling point I thought worth mentioning

I found one of these laying on the ground the other day. Seems like a nice light I actually kind of needed a new EDC light anyways lol

Nice review. Fairly concise and to the point. Bring out differences, strong points, weak points. Without a lot of wasted BS talking.
Thank you for that.
A lot of reviews I start to watch get cut short because if al the wasted effort trying to describe something. It's like they started talking to review without even thinking about what they need or want to say.
Thanks again, great review. And since I like most can NEVER have enough flashlights, may have to try this out. 👍👍

Nice! Just ordered mine it will be here tomorrow its gonna replace my I3T EOS

Awesome flashlight until it stops functioning. I’ve had mine about 2 years. Usage has been very minimal. The switch is acting up so it needs to be sent in to get repaired.

I carry one daily! Mines blue so I don’t lose it. Battery lasted months for common use

I love USB rechargeable things. They can be recharged by a portable battery or foldable hikers solar panels as well.

I've had the Microstream USB Coyote since July. I carry it every day, best flashlight I've had.

Picked up the macro stream a few months back and I carry it literally every day now over several other lights I own.

Defensive tool? Lol

Whats the best edc pocket carry flashlight?

Love my little AAA Microstream. Swap the battery every month or so, never had it run out. Been carrying every day for years. Not sure I wanna have the USB version, but your review makes it tempting.

Can you put a regular AAA in if you are not near a charger?

Really great review! Thanks man

Can this be use with aaa?

Please review the new Streamlight STL 88811 WEDGE EDC LIGHT USB

If you slide open the charging cover it will throw a tighter beam

i chucked mine as high as i could and works fine with just 1 scratch

Ummmm. What's "Tactical" about BROWN?

You cant put a regular aaa in it if you need to???

You wanna know how things can be “tactical”? Make a red light option. Anybody who’s been on a patrol or set up an OP knows that when you’re reading a map, you want a red light. It’s easier to read a map with and it’s less visible at distances than a white light. Things are referred to as “tactical” far too much and I think in some cases that drives the price up.

I’m getting really sick and god damn tired of everything being “tactical.”

Great review!
How long will these micros last on a full charge without use?
You think it’d be fare to compare these to a Protac 1L-1AA?
I’d definitely like to see at least a comparison video to the new macro stream with I think 500 lumens?

Had mine for a while, it always perfect.. it even took a bath in the washer AND dryer today and yet still works perfect haha, love these things!

Great light but I've never had their tail switch last longer than two month.

just got 2 coyote brown (his/hers) and have 2 macrostream USBs coming...these are crazy handy

Do thay have better batteries for it I'm haveing trouble finding the right size

I have 2 in the coyote color. I am a mechanic / auto body tech. I also edc this light. This is my favorite rechargable mini light. Infact everyone at the shop ended up getting one bc they like mine much better than the non rechargable or bigger lights.

Could you use a battery bank to recharge this?

How long it will lasts at full outputs? I mean, mine was weakening when the battery was dying out. How long it stays at full 50 or 250 lumens before slowly reducing?

PWM on low is not super desirable. I would rather it just be high-only unless they could give you a real low mode.

This video is the reason i bought one. It's a great flashlight. I use it when i walk my dog at night

Just ordered one!

For anyone who can answer...
If I use Gideon's link to Amazon, the first item that shows up is the flashlight. However, of course, there's items from other manufacturers. I'm going to purchase a couple of these flashlights however I might be interested on other things on the page that Gideon linked. As long as I stay on that linked page, will he get credit for other things that I buy as well?
I just want to make sure he gets credit.
Thanks in advance for anyone's help!
Be safe out there!

Subbed. I can tell you're a good dude.
Simple, common sense explanations. Talking rate just perfect. Not a speed talker that rushes the video, have to rewind on those vids. Not slow, wasting folks time.
I will buy using your links. I'll check out those sunglasses. People need to understand that you folks put in a lot of time to produce these videos and reviews so I can buy quality. You're helping us, so we should return the favor! Thanks man.

Hmmm i might get this flashlight. Idk.

Can you do a review and comparison of Olight I5T and the new for 2020 Streamlight Macrostream?

Streamlight needs to revamp the protac 1aaa into this USB format as well. Same size, but better beam, and ten tap programmable - that would be my edc light of choice, if they made one.

This is a perfect EDC flashlight, I don't need a battery if android cable is already at hand. I mean the Small utility micro usb cable. I'm going to Tent camping next week. Has anyone here knows how to make a diffuser for any flashlights out there? It sounds impossible to do but I would like to know for this flashlight. I don't want to shine my light to other people out there.

Excellent light. I should have bought two.

Hey Aaron can we get a comparison of these two vs the new Streamlight Macrostream?!

Just got this version had the long streamlight usb this is way more light in a compact version! I have the tactical because i usually need a brighter light versus the low mode.

When there is no place to charge the USB one, a few extra batteries can save you life. In a situation like that all the lumens in the world would not matter. Just saying, cheers!
