My rear light seems to eat through these at a fair old rate.
Anyone get a source for buying in bulk at a reasonable price?
I've had some experiences of buying fake batteries in the past, so a reliable source appreciated
Thanks
I get mine in sheets from 7dayshop
Ever thought about a usb rechargeable light? Probably cheaper in the long run.
Amazon/eBay.
Just get a decent brand like Panasonic/Sony etc.
Get mine from watchbattery.Co.uk .... until I went usb rechargeable 🙂
Amazon has loads of fakes it seems, the last lot of Duracells I got are rubbish
Poundland
Poundland here, not noticed much difference to branded batteries.

How on earth do you spot a fake battery? Just got some from eBay for the dogs collar. Assumed the collar was knackered.

i got rid of my battery light and just bought a rechargeable one instead.

I should caveat my post with always buy direct from Amazon if using Amazon. Resellers for batteries is a bit of a lottery.
TBH I've tended to consider CR2032 powered rear lights "disposable" not very environmentally responsible I know but they're seldom long lasting IME...
I get packs off 20 from DX for a few pounds, but you'll need a multi-meter to check them because sometimes you can get a few dead ones.
What I didn't know though, was that you can get rechargeable 2032 battery's, and I'll will be getting some of those when I get through all the battery's I have left.
You can't, which is the problem.How on earth do you spot a fake battery?
I got a box of duracells from ebay and they were fine, but it's probably pot luck. I think they had 2 years left on the use by date, rather than the 10 years they start with so was more likley someones old stock than newly made fakes.
thanks for your input everyone
