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: - It's cheap, what can I say, its a very cheap battery
- good for flashlights, like rominsens, it is brighter than if you you AAs, but 18650s are still better
- cheap! need I say it again?
- cheap!

Cons: - unprotected, who knows when this thing is going to do something weird? o_O
- probably no the rated maH,but that's expected

Other Thoughts: this battery works well in the ultrafire charger, except, of course, you have to use a spacer.
I used bullet shells for spacers, they work very well.

Bottomline: buy it for your flashlight.

Pros: -lightweight
-good runtime, used on my 30mW laser and for over a month(around 30min of use) of usage it only dropped from 4.2v to 3.8v

Cons: first time I charged it, full charge was 4.2V when http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.936 indicated full charge.
2nd time charging it was charged up to 4.1V on the same charger. I am not sure where the discripancy was the same scenario on two identical cells

Other Thoughts: I still have to charge it for another 3-4 times to see the real performance, that is why I waited this long to give my review.
So please guys do not review what you have received that same day, give it some time, play with it a month or so, then write a review.

Bottomline: I consider this a good buy

Pros: Very good and cheap batteries. Come with 1000ma label on them instead of 800ma. Of 4 batteries received, 3 had 3.80-3.84V and the rest had 4.23V.
The price is 3 times LOWER than one of the NON-rechargeable battery in the shop.

Cons: For this price they are GOOD! Really, there is only one Cons: they are un-protected.
And as I had no special charger for CR123 batteries, I had to use special spacers to charge them in 18650 charger, nevertheless it worked fine and charged the batteries up to 4.19V.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: For one week already, these batteries are working in my 3W CR123 flashlights and by now they seem ok.
