Hi Para. I searched but could not find a recent thread where you recommended SureFire batteries only for WMLs. For years I've been buying Duracell CR123 batteries, and with Duracell, and being burned by Chicom Duracell fakes (best I can tell), I'm done with WML batteries I can't count on.

So I'm going to exercise your advice on buying only SureFire CR123 for my WMLs, but I'd like to know where you like to buy yours from. I'm hesitant to buy ANY batteries from Amazon, which is where I got my suspect batteries (more than once and in multiple sizes etc). My guess is you are not getting yours from Amazon, but I just can't remember if you specified a trustworthy source.

Any advice with this much appreciated.

SureFire sells them direct, on their website. Maybe not the cheapest place to get them, but they're probably not counterfeit.

Not para, but...

I tired of CR123s that didn't seem to last. So last buy I bought Surefire. I got mine from Battery Junction. I'd been using Battery Junction's own brand: Titanium Innovations.

FWIW: Everything I've read suggests Surefire batteries are made by Panasonic.

Para, can you clarify where you buy SurFire batteries yourself ? Are you buying them from Amazon (NOT 3rd party via Amazon) ?
