Where to buy Duracell Ultra CR123 batteries in bulk?

[voodoojc]

Anyone know where to purchase Duracell Ultra CR123 batteries in bulk for less than $1.25 each? Already tried contacting them directly, but minimum order is $25,000.

Wow, that definitely sounds a lot more than alternator size. Too big for ATOT to help you with.

Yeah, that's way more than 10 pounds of batteries.

$1.25 seems really inexpensive for CR123's

Curious, why do you need so many batteries?

Oh and wtf are you doing with so many batteries?

We package these with our products. Used to get them for $1.17 each, but now they raised their price to $1.25 each. =(

We get this bulk (1000+) battery quesiton about once a year. And no one has ever posted back telling us what they finally did.

That is an expensive battery. I looked around at a half dozen electronics suppliers that I use and most would not quote amounts online more than say 500. They wanted me to fill in a form to request a large quote. So, I didn't go any further. But, from what I've seen, $1.25 looks like a really good deal on that battery.

Hot enough that it has a fire resistant rating. 😉

Actually that's for professional firefighting use for entry into enclosed areas with fire present and air temperatures may exceed 500F. (SCBA required obviously)
