Several have reported that the TekCells are not as good with the SF 2.3A HOLA's, although the work fine with various manufacturers' 0.70 to 1.22 LOLA's

I would skip the Tekcells. They don't handle heavy loads at all well. The rest are all very good cells.

Is an E2 considered a heavy load?

I've never tried Panasonics, but I've used Sanyo, Surefire, Energizer E2 Lithiums and Duracell Ultras. Most of the time I go with Duracell Ultras, but Surefire has the best deal on their batteries and they are just as good. The only experience I've had with Tekcells was when I got my Pelican M6. It came with Tekcells and they were the crappiest batteries I'd ever seen. They produced an awfully dim yellow color to the M6's beam so I soon replaced them with Duracell Ultras and there was quite a difference! With the Duracells, my Pelican was nice and bright.

I'm sure the Moderator will move this to the Battery thread, but SureFire is proven to be the best. I've performed extensive testing several time and SF 123-cells win each time in flashlights.
