As previous, the Energizer® Ultimate Lithium™ AA battery is a good choice for the CL plus 100 laser.
I propose that the batteries are disposed of after 2 months.An alternative, though not as long lasting, is the AA Energizer® Max Plus™ battery. Again dispose of after 2 months.
I will be attending the Sydney NSW AMAC workshop this Sunday and look forward to seeing the NSW members. Alan Harvey
