Nope, we buy Duracell CR123A’s in bulk and issue them to all of our officers. Zero issues.

Are the Duracell's cheaper? I doubt Surefire is making their own batteries. I believe there are just a handful of battery manufacturers out there, they just rebrand batteries for different customers. I know Johnson Controls was huge, not sure if they still are.

| I've never had any issues with Surefire batteries, and that's good enough for me. |

| https://www.batteryjunction.com/surefire-cr123a.html$1.75 a piece for singles and cheaper if you buy more at battery junction. I've been buying from them for probably 20 years and they have always been fantastic, although I buy their Titanium brand of CR123s more often than not.

"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?" "It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want." "You mean they actually vote for the lizards." "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course." "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?" "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in." |

No issues, until the Duracell battery leaks. Surefire eventually replaced my Surefire unit at no cost. I now use only Surefire batteries.

| It's silly, but you need to watch out on the source of brand name (Surefire, Duracell, Energizer, etc) batteries on Amazon. There are counterfeits out there (yes, of batteries). I prefer Battery Junction for my lithium battery needs. |

I did too. Lowe's was closing out 12/29 dated ones for about $1 each in two packs or by the dozen. I'm still using those up. Not sure if they carry them any longer.
