Hello all, I am new here but have spend some time reading threads to try and get familiar with the vast world of flashlights! I have carried a Costco Techlite Lumen master I got as a gift for about a year. I do field work and spend my days inspecting vacant homes, so needless to say I use my flashlight daily. I have been very unimpressed with the battery life and have decided to step it up a notch and get educated.
I have decided to get a Fenix PD30 (either from Amazon, or BatteryJunction.com). I see that it uses 2 x CR123A batteries, and they suggest Lithium 3.0V batteries on the BatteryJunction.com site. My question is, do I have to use Lithium batteries, or can I use something else? I don't know much about the differences in batteries but would imagine it is very similar to importance to good ammo in a firearm. Can I use rechargeable batteries in this light, if so, what would be the best for this particular light? :thinking:
