baa Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Just got my new Open gun. Trying to stock up on extra batteries for the C-More. I saw these on Amazon and they seem like a good price and they are Lithium, which will last longer when rattling around in my range bag. http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-2L76BP-3-Volt-Lithiumn-Battery/dp/B0044CVC2U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1332264133&sr=8-1 Anyone know if these will work in a C-More? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
major9 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I would think so. The description says that it replaces the DL1/3N, which is what the C-More uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 It will work but look around. There is a company that sells them in a dispenser. Much more convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Also they are cheaper at Shooter's connection I think: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRe Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Also they are cheaper at Shooter's connection I think: I tried those. I bought a bunch, and still have some. I get one practice out of them. Buy the more expensive ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the more expensive ones. I'm talking about the duracells that are $20 for a 5 pack not the cheap ones that are off brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst part is, though, I bought 10 Duracells last year (not from SC, bought them locally) and at least two were dead in the package I can't find the Energizers locally anymore, otherwise, I'd probably go there...

Guest Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) locally, the ACE hardware has the DL1/3N for $4.50ish and they always seem to have fresh ones with expiration dates years out. I found them by accident in the store while looking for something else and felt like I struck gold. Have also used two 357 batteries, which are cheaper still - they have a slightly higher nominal voltage output (3.1v vs. 3.0v, but it is within the voltage specs for the DL1/3N - check out the Duracell tech specs library at duracell.com) they seem to be a little brighter, and the discharge curve is slightly different so the dot seem to stay brighter until the battery dies. Don't think it hurts the diode or circuit, but don't really know. Used to run two 357 batteries in the old Tasco PDPII instead of the 1/3N and it never hurt them, but the recoil did.

Nik Habicht Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Check batteryjunction.com..... They're becoming my goto source for batteries, thanks to Vlad's recommendation..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Check Batteries Plus if you have one local to you. My company has a corporate account there so I get them for about $3.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baa Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Amazon has a "subscription" deal for most types of batteries, bringing to cost down to $3.39 for the Engerizer lithium ion batteries I put in the link in the original post. Since I am now feeding two C-mores, I figure that I can setup to get a set of new batteries every 3 months. Plus I get free shipping as a prime member. I went ahead and ordered a couple. If they work well, I will setup a regular order. I dry fire a lot, so I am sure I will need new batteries on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingchef Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I will add a benefit to being deaf is I use the 625 hearing aid battery, and 2 of those make my C-more work. I always have a bunch of hearing aid batteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
