not sure if they have what you want in batteries, but I go to Battery Junction. http://www.batteryjunction.com/I get the batteries for my surefire flashlight CR123A for less than $1 each. compared to $4-$5 each from Gander Mountain

If you have a Batteries Plus store, ask for Powerex 2700mAh.
They wont be on the shelf. They use them for their nicad pack builds.

I quit using rechargables in mine, bought some lithium batteries and a backup set, so far they are still going strong.
At the first of this year I recharged my Sanyo 2700mha's and one of them leaked and 2 more checked bad. I used to get a day and a half worth of calling with them and don't think they're worth it.

If you can't cycle charge your battery's each year they don't perform well.

Do not overlook Foxpro's batteries they are low self discharge and are of the highest quality. Most important is get the low self discharge and a good charger like the Maha.
