Can quality CR123A lithium 3V batteries be bought cheap in Australia? Kolt says yes

Most of us have some devices which run on CR123A batteries like pistol lights, coms gear, flashes, rangefinders, etc. If the device doesn’t take rechargeables we are held to the high prices charged in Australia for such batteries. Now Kolt batteries are available here and at a reasonable price. Priced from $2.75 for a single Kolt CR123A 3v Lithium battery down to as low as $1.99 when bought in packs of 100 of Kolt CR123 3V Lithium batteries.

FoxFury AWL-P pistol light

FoxFury-AWL-P

Pistol lights aren’t huge in Australia and often are pricey. The FoxFury AWL-P is reasonably priced, $195, waterproof to 18 metres and only weighs 58 grams. It is smaller than most pistol lights as it only requires one CR123A battery.  The most surprising thing about the  AWL-P is the strobe, it is a variable rate strobe designed to interfere with the ability of the optic nerve to send signals to the brain, in some cases it even induces a feeling of nausea in the viewer.

Wolf Eyes Explorer Dual LED torch flashlight

Wolf Eyes Explorer Dual LED

The Wolf Eyes Explorer Dual LED torch flashlight is the answer to a question we were asked by an Australian marine operational team who needed a light which wouldn’t destroy their night vision but would allow instant switching to a blindingly high output. The Explorer Dual LED turns on in night vision saving red, then at the touch of a button reverts to a dazzling 260 lumen output.

A short video of the modes:

Wolf Eyes UV Explorer

If you work in a forensics unit or are often at the first at crime scenes and want to make a thorough analysis, the Wolf Eyes UV Explorer may fit your needs.  It has a great 260 lumen output of white light on high beam (still with medium, low and strobe) but also has UV light available, with all the obvious benefits.

Wolf Eyes Sniper 260 Hunter weaponlight

Wolf Eyes Sniper 260 Hunter

The Wolf Eyes Sniper 260 Hunter is a version of the Wolf Eyes Sniper with a smooth reflector for enhanced throw and comes equipped with a gun tape switch for mounting near the trigger or on the forestock. Barrel and Picatinny rail mounts are available and have recently been used to mount these to M4, Heckler & Koch UMP and Bushmasters. The 13 cm size helps with mounting and gun balance, whilst the 150 gram weight (including batteries) barely changes the point of impact.

With a solid 100 metre output, the Sniper 260 Hunter provides good target identification for internal use and external use at the ranges these weapons are predominantly used at.  There are two versions of this light, a single level torch called the Sniper 260 Hunter Solo which is perfect for weapon only use and a multi level torch which is good for using off the firearm with the lower levels, the multi level version called Sniper 260 Hunter.

Wolf Eyes Sniper MC

Wolf Eyes Sniper MC

The Wolf Eyes Sniper MC provides 580 lumens of searching power in the palm of your hand. Utilising the same body as the standard Sniper but with a larger bezel (head) it has a much stronger flood beam, great for building clearing. As with all 25.4mm (1″) Wolf Eyes bodies it is weapon mountable and can utilise tape switches. It also utilises the same LRB168A battery used in so many of the Wolf Eyes torches to provide commonality.

Wolf Eyes Superstorm

Wolf Eyes Superstorm

Wolf Eyes Superstorm, the perfect storm? Possibly if you work in law enforcement. Small enough to be belt carried, the Superstorm has 7 LEDs giving 1300 lumens or roughly ten times the light you are getting from your Maglite, but also with a high, medium, low and strobe mode. The High mode is tremendous when lots of light is required, the medium is similar to what you have been using and low is a reasonable amount of light and will last a week of shifts. The strobe mode is handy as a warning or very useful for crowd control, whilst the disorientating effect wont have people dropping to their knees, it sure distracts them from what they may have been intending to do. Have a look at the strobe at the bottom of here: strobe.
