What is the basic difference between the lithium CR123A powered Flashlights and the AA powered flashlights ?
The basic difference between these two different types of flashlights is lithium batteries have a much higher power output level for their size than the standard AA batteries, so let’s say we have two torches the size of your finger, one torch is AA and the other torch is CR123A lithium, the torch with the lithium batteries will have the potential to output almost twice the light levels as the torch with the AA batteries, it is that simple. This is why most professional flashlight manufacturers prefer the lithium battery flashlights as opposed to the AA batteries as it allows them to design much smaller and more powerful and efficient flashlights than if they only had AA batteries to work with. However their is a cost to this efficiency as the CR123A batteries are more expensive compared to the common and readily available AA batteries, we sell the CR123A batteries in our battery section for around $3.00 as opposed to certain electronics retailers who sell the same batteries for around
