Where can I find a good dealr replacement batteries for my Suefire? My 1st guess would be Radio Shake, but I'd like to make sure.

Surefire's website has the best deal.

What Wondernine said.
Call them and order direct, willcall it so it'll save you shipping. I can pick them up for you if you like, since I live a mile or two from them.

SF's got the price down to nearly a buck a battery. Heck of a lot better than the local grocery store where I saw one going for $7.95 the other day.

Stock up man. No reason to have their rechargeables anymore, either, with batt prices that low.

Also runs them on sale quite often. You can get one their mailing list if you go to their site and they will send you emails when they have good sales. They're fast and reliable (at least so far).

Good luck with Botach tactical. Their customer service sucks so bad that many of the forums I go to have threads with hundreds of posts on them under such things as "Botach sucks", etc. yes, they do have good deals, but what happens when they send you what you didn't want and you have to spend hours and dollars getting it refunded, if you can.
Order from a guy named Brad at Lightfighter.com he's an ex-soldier who answers questions and his customer service is top notch. Yep, it's the same price as surefire and a couple bucks higher than botach, but when botach screws up your order, as they inevitably will, you'll wish you hadn't dealt with them. they stink.

Botach is the worst! I have personally been screwed by them and know a lot of others that have as well. They may have cheap prices, but I prefer to pay a couple dollars more and buy from a good company...

brightguy, has 12 for 20. can also get them in smaller quantities too, $1.65 per single lithium battery. got myself 6 battteries recently with a flashlight purchase, which was nice, since that's two extra for the flashlight (an LED light) and 4 for my camera which takes the same batteries.

My Arc LSH-P runs on one 123 lithium battery. The cheapest I've seen them for at Walgreen's is over eight bucks. My camera runs on the same size too. I've found them on the 'net for as little as a buck a piece.
