What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates.

Not the bargain it supposed to be

Pros: Well...two out of ten batteries worked. And DX replaced tha first batch for free, thats good. Kinda.

Cons: First batch had no working batteries. They had leaked the elektrolyte and gave no power. I opened a ticket and DX sent me a new 5-pack for free (Thanks!). When it arrived there was two working batteries without leaks. Three had leaks and did not work.

Other Thoughts: I think they simply cant be transported by airplane. Upon disection it seems there really isnt any pressure safety release valve. So when you put this in low pressure flight cabin, the electrolyte simply boils away.

Bottomline: I cant really recommend these to anyone. If they change the basic construction it will be a excellent product, but as is, its crap. I have no doubt they work fine when they leave China. They just get destroyed in transit.

Nice but no more than that

Pros: Price is good, but batteries do not measure to any other brand price\performance you get in stores.
Pay less, get less but still you expect to get something. In this case you do not really get a good deal, at least I didn't. Maybe I'm an a excaption, a one off...  I don't know.
 
Cons: 3 out of 5 were nearley dead, two worked ok but far less then a 6 mo. used Duracell...
I wonder if DX will reemburse me for the three nearly dead ones.
 
Other Thoughts:  
Bottomline: Low price =? Low value?,
Not sure that is always the case.
Perhaps should not be.

Pros: Very cheap for these type of battery
They work in my solarforce L2 
Cheap way to have your flashlight ready for short term power outages
 
Cons: Batteries were all around 3 volts (no dead batteries) but 3 batteies tested less than 2 amps and the other 2 batteries tested just over 2 amps but quickly dropped to .5 amps.  The Trustfire CR123a (SKU # 19769)are very good and all over 3 volts and all tested over 5 amps and dropped to >2 amps
 
Other Thoughts: Buy the Trustfire primary CR123a (SKU # 19769).  They are only a few cents more and way better
 
Bottomline: These are the cheapest CR123 batteries around but there are better value for the money batteries here on DX

Pros: The price is so damn cheap i could yell of joy. in germany you pay for one battery more than the 10th time of the price. but i need it for my laser and my flashlight.
 
Cons: Packed in fives, why?
If you only have equipment that uses 2 batterys then you will have one kicking around untill you buy another five
 
Other Thoughts: If you need these, these are the ones to get. The price gets even lower when bought in bulk. With many flashlights switching to the cr123a type of cell, this is a must have item.
 
Bottomline: Cheap, works, what else can you want?
