Quick question on Rechargeable cr123s

[Burntrubber87]

Hey guys, I'm sorry if this has been covered, if you have a link for me I'll glady look at it. I tried searching for this, but its kinda of specific. I'm looking for a charger and battery set for my Surefire 6P LED and G2 with P61 lamp. I am kinda rough with my lights and I tend to run the batteries dead alot so that might be an issue. I don't want to buy some cheap rechargables that are gonna blow up if i'm too rough with the light..I have had this in my- http://www.batteryjunction.com/4parc390reli.html - But it says at the bottom its not ideal for surefires with incan bulbs? any help would be appreciated where to find what i'm looking for and again i'm sorry if this has been covered before.

3volt CRC123A = 3.7volts fully charged
3.6v CRC123A = 4.2volts fully charged

Problem = Over volting !
If your fearful , stick to 3v CRC's
Or go 18650

You can't run RCR123's with the P61 bulb as it will go Go with the same charger all your friends have, the Ultrafire WF-139. It may come with spacers depending on where you order it from, if not grab a pair. They are for RCR123's. You can charge all cell sizes with that one, which is why it's highly recommended.

Go with protected cells for sure. AW brand cells are the best hands down, and thats what you want as I personally know how you handle your equipment :naughty: His are the best, and they will last and hold up the best long-term.

EDIT: If you really want to go rechargable with your G2 and still stay incan, Lumens Factory makes some nice LA's that are made specifically for a rechargable set-up. AW's RCR's are rated for 3.7V so you would want to go with an appropriate LA for whatever voltage you end up with. G2 can take one 17670, or 2xRCR123's which gives you 3.7V or 7.4V. When fully topped off the charger, they will be 4.2V so keep that in mind. You would want a 3.7-4.2V LA or a 9V LA depending on one or two cells. Plus they make brighter ones than the P61.
