Most of these mAh numbers we see are pure fantasy. You cannot cheat physics. All batteries of a similar size have an actual real mAh that is similar. To further compund the problem - when you move to a battery that is e.g. 300 mAh from a battery that is 600mAh you don't just lose half the runtime you also lose about half of the maximum available current draw(C).

I've been reading quite a bit about batteries in flashlight mod forums. Basically, the cheaper ones are exploding when they mod them into lasers. Go figure. These are supposed to be some of the best, as suggested by the flashlight modders:

10 Pcs Tenergy Propel CR2 Lithium Battery with PTC Protected

Oh, another thing they say is that many Chinese "protected" cells, don't even have a protection circuit on them. Hence, BOOM!

Tenergy Propel CR2 is also a primary cell. (ferreting out batteries is challenging :) )

Good point. I'm getting sloppy. It was a long day at work. Since I was made the lead developer, my days have sucked. I can no longer dump the bad coding on someone else. :(

Anyway, we will find one. No freebie needed (although, we've earned one by now... hint hint wink).

I used those for 6v vaping on my Omega, although mine look like the ones below.

Amazon.com: 4 pcs Tenergy RCR123A 3.0V 900mAh Rechargeable Li-Ion Batteries: Camera & Photo

They listed as follows:

• Rechargeable CR123A Li-Ion Batteries with 3.0V working voltage.
• Tenergy RCR123A can be recharged up to 1000 times. 1 RCR123A Li-ion = 1000 CR123A Primary Cells
• Replaces most of CR123A primary Lithium battery for a digital cameras and flashlights
• Internal voltage regulators.
• Modified Voltage to achieve 3.2v at full voltage; once loaded, cell voltage drops to 3.0v.
• Internal over-charge and over-discharge protection to prevent battery over use.
• The current will be shut off when the battery voltage drops below 2.5V.
• Nominal Capacity: 600mAh
• Maximum Capacity:900 mAh
• Dimensions: 16 D x 34 H mm. (The height 34mm includes the button top)
• Weight: 17 g or 0.6 Oz.

I bought the same ones (blue top)...
They never worked right in my mods... Reo,omega... Seems the protection circuit on them would kick in. Maybe get a two second draw and then nothing batts just shut off.
On the other hand i bought a flashlight to use them... Almost have to wear a welders mask when i use it... Lol

That's what I did with my yellow tops. I bought a flashlight to put them since I was using the blue tops for my mod. lol
