Where is the best place to buy em from? I just noticed the eotech and the stream light flash light I have take the same ones. I had a spare pack that I stuck in the grip of my ar but I want to have some spares laying around. My flash light burns through em. Last time I bought em was at rite aid and I think I paid like $20 for 4 duracells. I've been looking on amazon but I figure I'll ask around before I order

Get them online. I've only ever found them to be way overpriced in-store.

 

I guess I'll share a small secret. I get mine from Primary Arms (same great guys who make the optics): https://www.primaryarms.com/Batteries_s/70.htm

Surefire.com has decent price on decent batteries. For years I would order from batterystation.com but not sure if he is online anymore. I am going to be needing some new batteries soon as my stash has dwindles from using lights more.

 

I think I will probably just order from surefire now though as there is only .20 difference and surefire has great warranty service if there is an issue.

you can buy a ton of it on amazon real cheap. when you get it, put the rest in cold or cool storage to extend life

I used to buy from LAPoliceGear

+1 Amazon is great!

I'm trying to find the site that I bought my 123's from. They came out to like 60 cents a pop. They were no names but they last fairly long. I will post it up if I find it.

Who ever needs batteries shoot me a pm. I am going to be doing an order for myself within the next week. If you need them shipped we can work something out.

i used battery junction myself..

If you need them quick, try Lowe's. They have the Surefire for $4.30 / 2 pack. They are pretty good quality.

x2, Ive gotten all my 123's from them. I use the Titanium Innovations ones, 12 pack for $11.76 http://www.batteryjunction.com/12pk-titanium-cr123a.html

Decide on the SureFire brand, then search around for the cheapest place to get them. If you subscribe to Candle Power Forums, some of those retailers give a discount for CPF members.

for the cheapest price . E bay . Thats where i get mine

thats a myth. mythbusters did it. cold has no effect on battery life

Amazon has bulk packages for a decent price. If you're a prime member, they ship it 2-day at no cost.

I am a prime member til the end of may so I'd probably do amazon

Battery junction, titanium brand. Best bang for the buck.

 

Best ones regardless of price I have found lately are four sevens flashlight food.

Shawn -- did you realize you can sign up three family members (or friends) for prime so that they get free shipping as well? Are you taking advantage of their free movies for prime members? Just sayin'

Free movies? No I'm not

When you go to the movies section of Amazon, just look for a link on the left that says Amazon prime videos

If you read some of the battery reviews out there you start being concerned about the cheapest of the cheap batteries, with heat management issues, inconsistent battery life and output, etc. Titanium however are both cheap AND very good and battery junction has them for less the a $1.

I bought two 20 battery sleeves a number of years ago for even less than this, and still have a lot.

I dispise botach - they have a horrible reputation for screwing you out of orders. Letting you order items, taking your money, then not delivering.

Agreed. It's a crap-shot with every single order. Not worth taking the chance for me.

CR123 batteries are about the only thing I WOULDN'T worry about ordering form botach. They used to be the only source of 123s that weren't near pharmacy prices, and had to hold my nose after being screwed on other stuff with them. (my oldest 6p is 16 this year huzzah!).

 

Things that they move by the pallet full and don't come in sizes are usually pretty safe as long as that is the only thing in the order. Still.. no point.. plenty of decent places to order batteries form these days.

On line is probably the cheaper but if you need them in a hurry Radio Shack has them........
