Viridian CR 1/3N Tactical Energy Plus Lithium Batteries, 3 Volt (Retail Pack of 4)

The Viridian CR 13N Tactical Energy Plus Lithium Batteries have garnered mixed feedback from customers, reflecting a blend of satisfaction regarding performance and frustration surrounding usability. Users predominantly agree that these batteries effectively power their devices once correctly installed. However, a notable obstacle arises from the green insulating sleeve that envelopes each battery, which customers find cumbersome and unnecessary. The sleeve can easily cause confusion at installation, as many users initially fail to realize it needs to be removed for the batteries to function effectively. Some users even express concern that removing the sleeve is inconvenient, particularly for those who may not be adept with tools. Users further criticize the lack of clear information on the packaging about this issue, which could help ensure smoother installation. With a changeable battery compared to older types, the installation process can strain the battery compartment—potentially leading to wear and tear. Consequently, customers find themselves frequently re-opening their devices to troubleshoot battery installations, leading to concerns about the durability of their equipment amidst this repeated handling. Despite the operational challenges posed by the green sleeve, many find that once they are able to properly fit the batteries into their devices, they perform well. However, there seems to be concern over the battery life itself, with several users reporting inadequate longevity, particularly in applications such as laser sights. As a result, while some appreciate the effective power the batteries provide, their overall experience is marred by usability issues and perceived quality concerns. ###
