OUCH!!!
I have not purchased 123's from a local store in a long time…
I am in the middle of doing a series of testing on 123's and realized that I did not have any Duracell Ultra's. I told myself that I'll just pick some up at the local store. This was the norm before the excellent deals at SureFire and BatteryStation.
$14.99 (plus tax) for 2 Duracell 123's!
For a couple of buck more I could have a DOZEN SureFire's. Or, for a few buck more I could have a dozen (or more) batteries AND a waterproof case to keep them in from BatteryStation.
In the name of science, I bit the bullet and purchased them. It was quite painful... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
I think I am going to recover, but this was a real eye opener.
