These are lovely rechargeable Li-ion batteries in CR123A format. This is the best for heavy duty eletronic devices like camera flash, flashlight, etc. However, since the 3.0V CR123A when fully charged will result in 3.8V, and 3.6V CR123A when fully charged will result in 4.2V, you have to make sure if your electronic devices can handle the extra power. We indicated the flashlight CR123A compatibility specification each of the flashlight product page for your conveience.

Pros: price,price,price = major no 1 pro, plus well put together cell come in purple/violet color and stamped 1000 mah so without checking probably 550+ at this money just the fact that they are well made and work well is enough, i`ll buy a few more as spares, usually use 16340 protected but some flashy`s wont take them so these are just the job.

Cons: not protected , but you knows that when you order, no cons as far as i can see just be careful with charging and watch the discharge.

Other Thoughts: best bang for your buck with 123 A`s buy some while available at this price.charge well in 06672 which is a wicked little charger.

Bottomline: bottomline is the bottomline= low price for decent quality cells.

Pros: Received batteries marked 1000mah.
Seem to be of good quality so far.
Charge just fine with the nano charger.
They will probably fit lights a little better than the protected ones.
Much more light from flashlights that can handle this voltage vs a primary cr123.

Cons: None really. Not sure if the 1000mah rating is accurate or not.

Other Thoughts: I've only charged them once with no problems.
Hopefully, they'll hold up. For this price I don't care that they're not protected. I like that they fit a little better in many of my lights. I'll do my best to keep from over-discharging them but for this price I'll just buy some more if that happens. A single 16350 light with a clip makes the best edc in my opinion.

Bottomline: Happy with the purchase.

Pros: - received 1000mAh batteries
- works exellently with the UltraFire WF-139 charger! no charge monitoring needed, the charger automatically shuts off (will need charge spacers).
- inexpensive: for around US$20 you can get the charger and 4 batteries, less than i've seen a 6-pack of disposables for!
- a fully charged cell will last for weeks of intermittent use in my NovaTac 120T, or a day or two of heavy use
- stays cool under extended use

Cons: - still not sure about how well they keep the charge under storage. i've used a battery that was charged >2 weeks before and it seemed to last less time, but i have to confirm this.

Other Thoughts: these work fantastically in the NovaTac 120-series. these lights specifically require UNPROTECTED cells, as specified by their manual, because the light has its own over-discharge protection. using protected cells can cause random light dimming as the two protection circuits battle it out.

Bottomline: this is THE best value for any kind of CR123 cell, wether rechargeable or disposable. i still keep disposable ones stashed in various bags, as they have an effectively indefinite shelf life - but they're really only for backups.
there is really little reason to go with disposables, especially for regular users like the law enforcement, military, aviation, and service inspection industries.

Pros: -Reasonably cheap
-3.6v Lithium rechargeable, according to what is stated on the battery 1000mAh (but I think it isn't the real deal.)

Cons: - unprotected (no over-charge or over dis-charge protection);
- I think that the stated capacity of 1000mAh is (greatly) exaggerated

Other Thoughts: If you can handle the risk of over dis-charging these are fine batteries.
still no 500 words so I have to think what to write more

Bottomline: If you have a good charger which takes care of overcharge-protection these are good batteries.
Inexpensive and very good
