On the other hand, any other brand has held their charge for years in my bag. I am specifically referring to CR123's and 2CR5's which might lurk in my bag for two or three years before I put them in. Most lithium's have expiration dates out 6-10 years.

I opened a 2-pack of Duracell 123 batteries, inserted them into the flash, and all I got was a faint "tic tic." I hardly ever use flash; I store the SF-20 without the batteries, and don't remember when I bought the spares. TIA, Oliver Bryk _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
