I am awaiting on a GB for a 1W 447nm CNI-PGL-III-C. It takes 2xCR123 3.0V batteries. Where is the best place to buy 2 of these batteries, preferably rechargeable ones. Amazon Prime items are preferred since they would arrive in 2 days :)

Combo Kit: 6 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh LiFePO4 Rechargeable Batteries with a Smart Charger

or

2 RCR123A 3.0V 750mAh Rechargeable LiFePO4 Li-Ion Batteries with AC/DC Smart Charger

or this if you have a lithium charger already:

http://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-RCR123A-900mAh-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B001BLQQ7S

Buy them single:

http://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-RCR123A-900mAh-Rechargeable-Battery/dp/B001B1BOPM

If you want to have more sets of batteries and IMO the First link is a way better deal for the lifepo4 cells. For the lithium cells i would go with the 4 pack if you have a charger already if not go for the one with the charger.:)

Hope this helps.:D

I have a very quick question too... so due to time constraints I plan on getting 2 of these for myself so I can get it by friday. BUT from the reviews it shows that the product says it is "Not for Use in Flashlights." Does this apply to lasers? I only plan to keep it in my laser for a week until I get better batteries

That dose not look like a round battery to me, it looks more like a oval camera battery.
So yes it dose apply to lasers also, don't waist your time and money unless you have a camera they will fit :crackup:

I think that's just a bad graphic, I don't think they're oval. If it's a CR123 it will fit.

As far as it not working in flashlights -- thats probably a drain/life issue. I've used store bought CR123s in my lasers before (namely my AqPro.) - no problem, jut short life.

(You can actually get CR123s at most grocery stores or drug stores. However, expect to pay an absolutely mind blowing amount for them.)

I have used the DealExtreme ones in my Polaris. They work. Expect to get them this summer if you order now, however.

These are also available at Fry's if you have one near you: http://www.frys.com/product/6453792
