From the manufacturer


10-year shelf life

MADE IN THE USA
Since our founding, SureFire has been committed to being a U.S. manufacturer. And throughout most of our history, our products have been proudly marked "Made in the U.S.A." Today, many SureFire products, including our SOCOM sound suppressors, hearing-protection earplugs, rifle magazines, 123A lithium batteries, and pens are still marked that way.
SureFire 123A Lithium Batteries
Optimized for use in SureFire flashlights, SureFire lithium batteries pack a lot of power into a small package. And unlike alkaline batteries SureFire high-performance lithium batteries boast a ten-year shelf life, which means they will be ready when you need them, every time.
- High-performance batteries, optimized for high-drain use in flashlights
- 10-year shelf life
- Wide temperature tolerance
- Built-in heat and fault (short-circuit) protection
- Made in the USA to SureFire specifications
More Voltage
SureFire 123A batteries generate 3 volts. Alkalines, just 1.5 volts.
Less Weight
For a given size (battery volume), Lithium batteries weigh about half as much as alkalines but produce more power.
Higher Power Density
For a given size (battery volume), It would take two alkaline batteries to match the power output of a single SureFire 123A lithium battery. Spares Carrier is not included (Sold Separately)
Longer Shelf Life
Made in USA, SureFire Lithium batteries can retain up to 90% of their original power output capability after 10 years of storage, making them perfect for emergency preparedness use. Stored alkalines deplete themselves much more rapidly.
Better Voltage Maintenance
A lithium battery maintains fairly constant voltage for up to 95% of its life, depending on discharge rate. At moderate to high discharge rates, the voltage of alkaline batteries drops rapidly, making them unsuitable for use in high-output flashlights.
Available Pack Size
SureFire approved battery pack sizes are 2pk, 6pk, 12pk, 72pk, and 400pk. All authentic SureFire batteries are packaged in a factory sealed blister pack or box and sold through authorized dealers only
Spares Carrier (Sold Separately)
The SC1 Spares Carrier holds six 123A lithium batteries plus one of following shorter style lamp assemblies: P60, P60L, P61, P90, P91, R30, R60, MN01, MN02, MN03, MA02 (Spares Carrier, batteries and lamps all sold separately).

- Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2025I buy quite a lot of CR123 Batteries. I use them in Flashlights, Weapons Lights, Red Dot Sights, etc. I've used Surefire Lights for many years on the Streets and around the house. So, I trust the Name Brand. I use Streamlight Flashlights also, but when I buy CR123 Batteries, I buy the Surefire. They've ALWAYS performed well for me.
