Being an mechanical inspector, Ispend a lot of time in the dark, so I got away from them old pelican 3 c cell flashlights, and went to the new Pelican 3 volt lithium light, what pelican did not warn consumers about, is that you have about 65 to 75 minutes of continuous burn time, and then if you dont change, you take a chance of blowing a 20 $ bulb, Sure fires are about the best deal on market except browning offers a special every now and then, 2 for 4.99, Itried duracell, 11.92, energizer, reduced burn time to 43 minutes 12.00 for two, and now sure fire, I got a hold of a bad batch one time could only get 35 minutes of continous burn, and finally blew bulb, but trust me for 29.00 plus shipping, thsese are by far the best deal, don't leave light on in back pocket, will get a blister on u know where

I recently developed a small battery powered drill for the US military. We chose lithium batteries for their high power density and long shelf life. We chose the 123s for their ready availability and relatively low cost. In the course of the design we tested several 123 batteries brands to compare their life. Surefire batteries are just as good as the Duracell and better than the Panasonic versions. They are much better than all the Chinese knock offs. They're a great deal considering they are a lot cheaper than the Duracell.

You can't beat the price! Other sites may come close but their shipping charges are ridiculous! These are at the best price I've found, taking account the shipping. I don't know WHY anyone would buy from a retailer! MAHALO! GOOD DEAL!

These are very good batteries that last a long time but are pricey here.

Would a top shelf flashlight manufacturer sell cheap batteries to go with their professional grade products? I don't think so. These batteries are just as good or better than anything else you will find, period! The best part is the price. Don't buy 123 batteries from your local retailer again. I have been through 2-3 boxes with no problems what so ever. 10 yr shelf life, not affected by temp change. As soon as I am done with this review I am buying another box. Get yours today!

Never again pay those outrageous prices for a CR123 again. These cost less than $1.70 and have a 10 year shelf life!

All batteries are NOT created equal. A buddy turned me on to these. I had been buying Duracell Camera batteries for about $3-$4 each. Not anymore. These last just as long if not longer and work out to be less than $2 each! Good product, will buy again.
