Why SureFire batteries??

[rjacobs]

Panasonic's from BatteryJunction are my go to.

Panasonics and Duracell both seem to be 1550 mah, Energizer is 1500, the rest seem to be 1400.

Guess I am lucky, I just get SF from Clothing sales whenever I am on Randolph or Ft Sam.

I have bought bulk Panasonics from Battery Junction since I retired in 2011 and never had an issue with them.
