Streamlight MacroStream USB

Streamlight/EDC

Streamlight MacroStream USB

The MicroStream USB scaled up to 500 lumens in a 4.5-inch, 2.2-ounce tube, with a double-tap on the tail switch toggling between high and a 50-lumen low. Its 2,000-candela beam reaches 90 metres and high lasts two hours on the built-in cell. Charging takes four hours over USB, but Streamlight does not say which connector, and the smaller sibling uses micro-USB. IPX4 is splash resistance only, the LED and CRI go unnamed, and the figure shown is a dealer's list price in the absence of a maker MSRP.

Beam profile

Flood, about 32° wide. Wide and even — light where you are, not where you're pointing.

Estimated from 500 lm ÷ 2,000 cd — how this works

The price shown is a snapshot from the last catalog sweep, not a live figure. Links to a brand's own store are not paid placements and earn us nothing.
