No drawbacks! It is all good! Or should I say great!

My rechargeable batteries even came with a car charger. No need to ever be without a truly portable curing light!

Re: New curing light.
I checked Radio Shack & Walmart for batteries: The CR123 Universal / Ultralast 3V/1300mPh Lithium is about 15.99 for a pack of 2 at RS or $5.96 at WM. Is this the correct btry for the new light? I plan to order one today based on the feed back some of you are giving this. I couldnt find a Btry listed as 18650. The others were under camaras or photo flashers. There was a list of about 7 brands ranging from $6 - $24 per Btry. Does anyone know yet how many average breaks can be repaired before the Btry needs replacing or recharging in some cases?

Re: New curing light.
You want to make sure the battery is rechargeable, those should have a R in front of the CR. They need to be Lithium-Ion

Re: New curing light.
First day out with my new curing light. Love that thing!!!
I did 8 repairs today in cold and cloudy weather and cured each one with the new light. I kept the light on them for about 3 or 4 mins. and they were good to go!
Thanks Delta!!

Thanks 14K . I talked to Bruce on Thursday. He advised to google the battery type and a list of places will come up to purchase The RCR123.
