I have Arlo security cams that require these batteries.
They are so expensive! Where to find cheap ones?
The cheapest I can find is still expensive!
Dick has $3.79 each.

you can buy large strips on ebay. or websites like dx/geekbuying/tmart etc if you want to wait the month. I generally buy them in a strip of 4-6 for $1 delivered.
EDIT: cr2032 not cr123
Thank you guys. I got 10 for $32 from EBay!

They have a much higher mAh rating than many (most/all?) of the others. Even if the camera is a heavy draw, leading to a lesser projected runtime, these are ~3x the rating of the others so one can reasonably expect longer battery change intervals. My initial installs didn't last long but then I was still trying to adjust video lengths, positions and sensitivities, not to mention very cold temps. Also, the has been a camera firmware update. The combination of the firmware, moderating temps, and less putzing around has led to seemingly great battery life although it's still too early to report actual results.
Thank you buddy! I went to the same thread but was too lazy to read all comments :) Noted. I will buy these rechargable ones once my primary batteries run out.
Yah, eBay.
Bought 4 rechargeable ones on eBay for like $5. Has been working fine… so far.
You can buy cheap CRxxxx 3V volt button cell coin Batteries at Kmart :)
Lol pjeston explained below.
The CR123 is not a button or coin cell, it's more like half a AA battery in size.
Thanks!
Cheers, I did not know that.
I've been watching them on Dick Smith, energizer normally on "sale" for a little over $3 C&C each, with good stock at most stores. Of course once a week or so they go back to the in store price of around $11 for their percent off "sale".
$10.98 today, bloody dick!Try one of those $2/bargain stores. I got a pack of about 30 various battery types (including 2xCR123) for about $4 if I remember correctly. Don't need to worry about shipping and the like as well…
