| What are your Lithium AA & AAA batteries of choice? I have a Sig OPMOD Romeo5X that takes an AAA battery. I know the Energizer litiums are ok, but are there any cheaper choices that have decent run times? |

They are about as bad as eBay. |

Cheaping out on batteries for weapons is a false economy. Buy rechargeables for other stuff to save money, but spend the extra $2 apiece to buy decent batteries. It's the equivalent of 4-5 rouds of decent 5.56. I only buy Energizer for AA and AAA lithium. |
