Hello,

Well i'm after some new cr2's for the 320mw red i just brought since the battery's were DOA since the post office fully decharged them when they were sent. They were juice 3.6v rechargables but they would only charge for 10 mins and if i let them stay in for 4 hours i would put them in the laser and they would be dead after a minute max. Now the trouble i did have i went and brought some normal cr2's Energizer's but they wouldn't fit so i had to do some handy work on them, So can anyone recommend me some rechargable cr2's that are the same size as the juice one's. (unless they are just different size for different countrys i'm not sure but they were only about 1mm out.

Thanks in advance.

They need to be shipped to Australia.

Why don't you just buy the same batteries? Buy them off their website, or a drop shipper website like DX.. (dealextreme) do a google search. If all else fails try ebay.

Well there is one's on ebay but my main concern is the size if it's gonna be that slightly bit larger. I would rather use ebay though.

Edit: I think most Cr2's are abit thicker the host is 15mm in diameter and the Juice cr2's are 14mm thick the only others i have found are 15.36mm so i guess i have to get them ones? I have read some reviews on them and they have been bad that's why i was looking for another brand.

Are these the 3.7v lithiums? If so have you considered the CR123A batteries? Also known as RCR123 or CR123. Please check their dimensions but I am pretty sure they will be able to fit in your host. You can buy them from all over the place... there is a company in QLD, where I buy mine from (I'm in Sydney) and they are great, fast shipping and great product too!!

Are you sure that they are CR2's? I didn't think that Juice made a CR2. Also look to see if they batteries you bought are protected. Protected batteries are "thicker" than unprotected batteries.

CR123's are larger than CR2's. They are not interchangeable. He is already having trouble getting the batteries to fit.

I thought cr123's were a slightly it larger as well, And yeah the batteries it come with were Juice cr2 3.6v but the post office broke them. I think i might just file out the host a tiny bit or is that a bad idea?

IDK. Something must be wrong with the numbering system. Here is a comparison shot between a CR2 and a CR123.

I have JUICE brand CR2's. They are smaller than standard non-rechargeable CR2's. If I were you I would get them from Ebay, they are $1 each plus shipping.

BTW: CR2's are way smaller than 123a's.

I just did a quick search

Juice Brand Rechargeable Photo Lithium CR2 Batteries - eBay (item 120494041609 end time Mar-16-10 10:59:07 PDT)

They are 3.6V.

Sweet! I do not see these on their website.

Make sure your charger will do 3.6V batteries (not 3V).

I can only afford the batteries at the moment the charger should be fine, I just think its the batteries cause they were fully decharged before they were posted.
