battery station 900 mah RCR123?

[recDNA]

I noticed a popular dealer now carries this protected rcr123 with greater mah than the AW RCR123. Will it add to runtime or is it wishful thinking by the manufacturer? If I can add 10 minutes to runtime on high its worth the switch.

Do you mean Tenergy RCR123A 3.0V 900mAh batteries? 900mAh capacity is impossible in this size. You will probably lose some runtime in comparison with AW RCR 750mAh.

The name on the label is battery junction. BUt they are on another retailers website. I was hoping for test results rather than a blanket assertion EVEN though you're probably right.

I have several of the batteryStation 900mAh these test about 480mAh in my CBAII when discharged at 500mA.

I don't think it is possible to get anywhere near 900mAh in a RCR123.

But have you run a controlled test vs awr r123 750 mah batteries?

I can't find any 900 mAh 16340 cells on the Battery Junction web site other than the 3.0v Tenergy cells.

Did you mean to say Battery Station? I see them at BS as well as the hound.

Yes. I'm sorry but I'm trying hard not to post li nks nor mention websites by name.

Ive used a set of these in my E2d for a couple years now, no problems to date, good runtime as well.

But the question is do they outlast the AW 750 maH RCR123?

Well Ive used them both and can say that both provide great performance for my usages. I do know that some have had troubles out of the blue labeled Battery Stations, but as for my cr123's no issues to date, and they've been in the light since '08 with a Lumens factory HO-E2r and charged often.

They're the same price at the Hound so I'm just trying to decide which to buy.

Get a set of each. :wave:
