So I've decided to buy the Surefire 6PL. I was wondering what kind of rechargeable CR123 batteries you're using for it? I've found a few on ebay, but not sure if they will work. There's a 3V and 3.7V with 1000mAh and 1300mAh. If you guys could recommend some good quality rechargeable batteries, that would be nice. :)

You can use 3.7V RCR123's for your 6PL, I think that module can handle up to 9V or so. Just don't use those batteries if you ever put the regular Surefire P60 or P61 incan lamp assembly in it. I recommend AW cells, CPF member AW sells them over in the Dealer's Corner on CPF Marketplace. Don't believe the outrageous mAh claims that you're seeing on eBay. The 3.7V 123's have about 650 mAh at most, and the 3.0V rechargeables have less than that. :)
