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.

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.
