I use them for 5 months now and they work ok Harpo. I have 6-7 pairs of them and they are still ok.

Emonty, I agree but all China batteries are meassured like this so they are bigger than other China batteries and maybe bigger than other batteries too
They work great and I am selling them too here.
However, they are nowhere near the capacity stated and they aren't any greater capacity than the others. Don't be fooled by these daft numbers.

You pay for what you get guys, also with batties!!!!

these are the best 3.0V batties around!!!:
NEW R123 with safe chemistry - CPFMarketPlace

Personally I like the the Tenergy CR123a 3.0volt Lifepo4(750mah) safe chem battery's... They are also 750mah ..... The ones your talking bout are 500mah....

And overall those Tenergys last FOREVER, they hold up, never let me down. You get something like 2000-3000 cycles out of them.... Li-ion bats average 500 cycles life span.

I think this has been done to death already. The Tenergys are the best LiFEPOs out there at the moment in my opinion (and I think Rob's tests proved this too).

Yes, I forgot bout that, Rob's tests..... chalk up another line for tenergy lifepo4's ...haha
They are brilliant and definitely my fave batteries although I haven't been using them as much recently because they are too much for the cartomisers that I have been using in my AFS. Hoping the ones I have coming in will be able to handle the Tenergy 6v a lot better.

well for one pair of tenergy at lisa's place (or wherever) i get 4 pairs of trustfire cr2 at dealextreme.com
Maths are quite easy sometimes

Yeah, But Tenergy Lifepo4's LAST 6times as long. They last 2000-3000 cycles. Li-ion CR2 bats only average 500 cycles. You get what you pay for.....

Also, Lifepo4 battery chemistry is WAYYY safer then li-ion(cr2s)....

Just my .02 cents.

well 2k to 500 cycle is factor 4, so it's irrelevant, now, i'm not saying they aren't good batteries, i'm saying they are overpriced (well actually i found pieces at 5$ a pair but shipping to france is too harsh)
I'd buy from you lisa, but the price is really too step on those. Rant over, i know they are safer too and that's why i'm leaning toward them anyway , so if any of you know a nice place to get some to europe "for cheap" i'll take it ;)

Two reasons for the price:
  1. The manufacturer will only ship them via particular carriers who will carry batteries properly for safety reasons. Remember, my prices have to include the shipping I pay.......
  2. Import duties.
I work extremely hard to keep my prices as low as I can on everything and the margin on these, despite their higher price, is smaller than the margin on many of my other stock items.

Yeah, You wont regret it, I get them for roughly $5 a pair ... without shipping.

And yes, 2000 would be factor 4 ... but I know people that say they get close 3000 witch would be 6 times.

I'm at the point, where I have tried every cr123 and most cr2s out there....and by far these lifepo's last the longest and stay firing like champs.

Hey Tim,

How do they last throughout the day? As compared to the tenergy cr123 3v that ive been using for 6v vaping? These almost make it through the day for me. I was trying to find something that would make it but looks like I'm out of luck
