Just spent 10 mins in the bike shop looking at the charging ports on all the rechargeable red/back lights. 11 of 11 have micro USB ports in the year 2024.
Un-be-fucking-lievable that there was not a single one with a USB-C port. I will not purchase another device with micro USB. It sucked when it was released in 2007, really sucks now, and the WORST part is that all the micro USB cables shipped with these devices are USB-A at the other end.
