Best place for CR123 3.0V batteries?

[chainvapor]

So far the best place I have found to get the Tenergy 900mah 3.0V protected batteries is cfrlights.com . The price is comparable to battery junction, but the shipping is far less money. When I order a 4 pack of these batteries with a charger, battery junction hits you with a shipping charge of $8.95 for First Class Mail or Priority Mail. That is a RIP OFF! cfrlights only charged me $5.25 for Priority Mail shipping. Much more like it! Anyway, just though some might want to know this. Also, is there any other CR123 3.0V batteries that perform better than these?? Let me know as I am always trying to improve my 6V experience! Thanks!!!!

Bumping this to find out if anyone likes some other 3.0V CR123 batteries better than these. These are the regular PROTECTED Tenergy batts, not the lifePO4 . Please let me know if there any others I could try. Thanks!!

I am using them in my Chameleon without any problem. I get 6-8 hrs out of them.

Dino direct is also free shipping and I've had very good luck with them. I'll never use Deal extreme again after they tried to fleece me last time.

For speedy shipping, lighthound.com , cloudsofvapor.com , Battery Junction, madvapes.com and that place you've linked will probably be the fastest.

For prices Dealextreme is hard to beat, but the shipping is slow (like up to 6 weeks slow).

For performance, LiFePO4 batteries allow for higher drain rates which means they will perform better in most vaping applications. (Its a benefit of the chemistry).
DX has a few LiFePO4's, AW makes some, and Tenergy does as well. There is some debate over the Tenergy's as the manufacturer ratings on them are very low.

In general, AW batteries have the highest quality and performance ratings for vaping. They are however significantly more expensive than xxFires. The best prices on AW batts are direct from AW over on CPFmarketplace. There is also a discounted Co-op on AW bats going on right now over in Pay-it-forward. Its about to end though.

Soshine makes a few cr123's and are reputed to perform well. You can find them on deal extreme as well.

Many cheap batteries also lie about there ratings. Ultrafires, GTL, and a few others are known to be deceptive in their capacity ratings. However they are usually dirt cheap.

The OP asked about 3V batts, not 3.6 - 3.7V
