cr123 battery source

[Wulf202]

I am running low on cr123 batteries which was made apparent during a search for a 9 year old last night (Found safe). Where can I get the best price on bulk quality batteries?

The cops were jealous of the light output which was entertaining.

BatteryJunction or Illumination Supply sometimes has sales. Amazon as well. GoingGear sometimes has good prices.

What about using rechargeable????

Another one for Battery Junction.

Not on CR123, some of them can damage your electronic.

This. Gotta be careful matching rechargeables with the electronics. 18650s are usually better behaved for rechargeables.

I have used tenergy. It runs out much faster than any good brand name cr123.

Most if not all chicom batts are not fully charged and does not have as good shelf life.

interesting--i'll have to check it out--perhaps a runtime test is in order. but, i've used surefire, panasonic, sanyo, battery station batteries, and the tenergies and haven't noticed the tenergies underperforming.

Let me know once you did. I bought tenergy when they first start popping up on amazon.com. Its been few years. Price is ridiculously good, I cant imagine they improve much, but who knows.

Jensen Arms has decent prices if you need some now. I just bought some Titanium Innovations brand from Battery Junction but have not tried them out yet.
