The Energizer CR123 lithium battery is a 3V photo cell built for digital cameras and other high-tech devices. Energizer says it holds power for up to 10 years in storage, so it is a sensible spare to keep in the kit bag.
Energizer rates it at 1500 mAh, and it works from -40°C to 60°C, which suits outdoor kit in a Scottish winter. That makes it a handy choice for gear you rely on. A built-in PTC safety device limits current during a short circuit. It is a low price way to stock up on a spare. You may also see it listed as CR123A, EL123, 5018LC or CR17345.
