xL-123A batteries--similar deal.

Submitted by RTO Trainer on August 20, 2007 - 16:58.

In the Army we have a high demand for the 123A battery. These power some optical devices, a handheld hard drive device and the little flashlights that attach to our rifles (Surefire).

In the event that these batteries have to be purchased "on the economy" rather than through the supply system, you can save a few bucks on each one.

Duracel's number is DL-123A. Kodak's is KL-123A. But don't buy these.

Buy the DL-223 or KL-223. These are usually somewhat less than $20 each, while the 123's run about $13. But when you cut off the plastic wrapper of the 223, there's 2 123's inside!
