I found a website that you can purchase 123A batteries cheap.Sanyo 123A battery price $1.65 you can get them at VSS electronics I am buying from them my next battery purchase.If you don't like mail order try Target they have Rayovac 123A two packs for $9.99 with a instant $2.00 coupon.

WOW! $1.65 per batt. I gotta try some of them Sanyos. I have been buying Duracell Ultra Photo Lithium and Energizer E2 Photo. So far the Duracells have been lasting the longest but they also cost more.

I drive my tanks fairly often and I'm only on my second set of cells! :)

123A lithiums
 
That is a good price.

We sell GP brand batteries for $5.00. Perhaps we can push for a lower price from GP company.

We ARE going to release cylindrical 123A Lithium Ion Rechargeable cells, but this will mean that you will also need to purchase our Lithium Polymer battery charger to charge the cells - The rechargeable lithiums are 3.7 volts - increasing speed - which may be desireable to some users.

just so you other guys know, I emailed them about pricing

this is what they said
Quote:

Charger would be about $60.00


The cells would be about $8.00 each.


We may make a cheap cell phone charger - but this has to charge only one cell at a time.


Wait for more information on our website.
so i guess it really isnt worth it. I will just stick with the cheaper non rechargable batteries.
