These sound perfect for my A2's might have to try them out.
I hear ya on the 16650s, however 16650s in the Surefire P2X Fury Intellibeam suck and give lower output and dwindles pretty quick. The KeepPower RCR 3 volt batteries in that same light worked much better than I expected and will use them there now.'If they don't fit, you must not acquit.'
Fitment issues are a thing!
If they do fit, then they should be fine for lights that take two CR123As, otherwise, 16650s for the win!

You will get 3.0 volts open circuit (no load)i own this batteries and so far the kp 3.0v works great,
when i said 3.0v i meant P1634U1 3V, sorry about the confusion, and yes i only used this for small lower amp light's such as incans, as this are only rated to 1.5amps, as to what effects it will give the incans im not too sure since i haven't used them enough, been only using it for a minute or two here and there and so far they've been great to me.You will get 3.0 volts open circuit (no load)
Under load of 1.2A, voltage will drop to about 2.5 volt and not a good replacement for higher loads.
i have noticed this on a few kp, so me and my friend did a test to make sure, we charged couple of KP 16340 and 14500 and half would be left behind inside the light and the other set would be set aside on it's original container and we did few weeks of testing and we got great results, so i guess from time to time their might be glich or a defect unit?, but so far it's been a great.I like the cells for obvious reasons but have a couple of issues. There seems to be some parasitic drain and there's no way to measure how much or the cell's current voltage level. Just use it til it shuts off or keep it fully charged all the time. I much prefer li-ion 3.7v where I know exactly what's going on.
... I can use it for 5 minutes a day or however long and top off the rcr and always have a fresh battery in my backup light instead of a slowly dwindling 123...
I've started using these rcr's in my edcl1-t
does momentary high work for you with these?
In my case, this is perhaps the key advantage, operating cost aside, to using 123 secondary alternatives - such as my LFP123s, and these as well. Always know what run time you're walking out the door with, without the unknown of partially discharged 123(s), or 'wasting' some by premature disposal. I'll probably also check out the cells you're using just for the heck of it - in part because of your feedback, thank you. It's always good to have options, and these offer USB charging as well, which can be an asset when on the road sometimes.
oh wow you're right, it does work, but needs an unreasonable amount of force ( in my case )Yes, but due to the extra length of the battery you do have to press harder.
