Radio Shack online has them on sale for $8.46 currently. Normally $17.29. Sounds like it would make a nice, compact light. No resistor needed depending on the color you use.

Also 25 2032s or 25 2016s for sale on there for $16.74 http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FLYER&category%5Fname=FLYER%5F004%5F004%5F002%5F002&product%5Fid=960%2D1710 for the 2016s
and http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FLYER&category%5Fname=FLYER%5F004%5F004%5F002%5F002&product%5Fid=960%2D1712 for the 2032s.

I've bought a lot of the Renata Li cells in the past when R.SHK.com was TechAmerica....
And, sad to say, that brand, in almost every case, just did not seem to hold up nearly as well as Duracell, Panasonic, Sony etc.

-Maybe they've improved 'em...?

Here's Technical info on that D-size battery.

Pretty impressive specs- The Sale Price is OK, But the regular price?? THAT much for a non-rechargable?? Not for a poor boy like me!

I like this one a LOT more for the price (Even if it is only 3V.):

They have some 3.6 V AA lithiums there pretty cheap too- don't know the AH rating on them though, and haven't messed with the ones I bought yet.

I've posted this before for the 2016, 2032 and 123 - check these folks out - http://www.sunnbattery.com/category.html?UCIDs=559844%7C559915 for the 2016 and 2032 (25 batteries- CR2032 Lithium Coin Cell List Price: $9.99) and for the 123 - (12 123's for $21.99)[url]http://www.sunnbattery.com/category.html?UCIDs=559844%7C824406.[/url] Sorry to say no Lithium D size. I went there in person and when I got mine they were all Panasonic.


Quote from their website "Sony or Panasonic(depending on which is in stock) - CR2016
List Price: $0.50

Price is .50 each. Minimum order is 10 cells. If you aren't ordering at least 10 cells then don't place the order. We will not ship less than 10 cells."

Found these folks through Brock's website links.

Best Regards,

That website won't come up for me. Is it still viable for you?

I had good luck with Sunn battery in my one order with them (also discovered thru Brock's site). Cheap shipping via US Postal Priority and I received my order three days after placing it.
