I want to get some rechargable CR2 batteries for my Dildas (read my thread in the red laser section). What are my best and cheapest options? The power of rechargables isn't any less than disposables, right?

Any suggestions other than DX? I'm not too enthusiastic on waiting a month for them to come in.

I've also seen some warnings from some sellers that their CR2s are intended only for camera use, and not for other applications like flashlights. Does this really matter? I've used other CR2s that say photo on them.

I used my thumb to rub the chinese logo and stuff off my charger, it looks a lot more professional now.

Upgrade to EMS shipping. You don't have to worry about customs with some batteries and a charger.

The only problem with rechargables is they are lower voltage, so will effect the laser by not getting the max power out of it. Unless of course the laser is designed and comes with rechargables.

All of my lasers perform better with high powered rechargeable NiMHs when compared to Alkaline batteries. Alkaline batteries drop voltage quickly under heavy load.

I'm waiting for the rechargeable cr2's as well and they should be in stock on july-22 but now they have changed it to july-31.

So I guess that will be around the 15th of august before I have them if I'm lucky. (It will cost me a fortune using the Lithium cr2's)

Just like 360freak I'm wondering if there is any company selling rechargeable cr2's other than DX?

I am getting better CR2's 1000mah rechargables.  These are hard to find, as most I have seen are only 800mah.
