DX and Kai have RCR2s, but they are all of the 3v regulated kind.
I need a pair of unregulated 3.6/3.7v ones.
Any idea where I can get them cheap? I tried searching eBay, but all I can find (from people who'll ship overseas; I'm in Italy) are 3.0v cells...
 
I need them unregulated (never said unprotected) because I need 3.6v for the use I have in mind, 3.0v isn't enough.
Thanks for the link, will have a look :)

Edit: 7.40 each? Whoa! 3.0v regulated RCR2s are 2.67 each delivered on Kaidomain... and they are supposed to be more expensive because of their regulators...
Any other cheaper source for 3.6v RCR2s? I do not need high quality batteries, i.e. any cheapo knockoff will do just fine. I also don't much care if the capacity is overstated.

Edit2: I noticed he has the unprotected ones for $4, but he doesn't say anything about international shipping. He charges $4.50 for US shipping though, so even if he did do international it'd end up way too expensive.

The best battery makes are generally acknowledged to be Wolf Eyes, Pila and AW. Other CPFers will no doubt speak up for other manufacturers, but I don't think there is too much disagreement about the three I have mentioned.

Pila and WE do not make RCR2s, so that leaves AW, whose cells have been (and continue to be) bought by 100s of very discriminating and critical-eyed people on this forum. His products and service are excellent.

If you wnat to save a very few $$ by buying cheap, fine, take your chance, but remember that on the whole you get what you pay for.
