Micro-USB torches: charge with a cable you already have
Looking for a torch with micro-USB? Then you probably use a cable you already have at home: micro-USB has been on old phones, power banks and countless other gadgets for years. That is exactly why you still come across this connection on torches, especially on compact models and entry-level models. With us, you will find micro-USB torches from brands such as Streamlight and Fenix. We test them all ourselves.
What you need to know about micro-USB
Micro-USB is one of the oldest USB connections you still come across on torches. The plug is smaller than the original USB-A plug, but unlike USB-C it only fits into the port one way. So you do need to look at it properly before you push it in.
The big advantage: there is a good chance you already have a micro-USB cable lying around, from an old phone, a power bank or another gadget. So you do not need to go to the shop especially for it.
USB-C is gaining ground and is now the new standard, so expect micro-USB to become a little less common over time. For now, it remains an excellent and widely used connection, especially on smaller and simpler torches.
