    In a pinch, Wally World has them. IIRC, the last I bought were 2 or 3 for $5 or so. They are back by the photo print area.

    I have a Surefire G2 torch. Some of the other brands are much cheaper like $1 - $1.50 per battery vs $2.08 per for the Surefire brand. Is there any particular reason I wouldn't want to buy the cheaper Panasonic's or Titanium batteries?

    WOW! Thanks for the link. I found they sell what I've been looking for... D sized 3.6 volt lithium cells... and they're 1/2 the price I've seen elsewhere.

    Be aware that Thionyl Chloride Lithium (Li-SOCl2) batteries are only useful for very low current draw.

    I am aware of that... but thanks for pointing it out.

    My usage requires long life and low current... so they're perfect.

    Botach has never disappointed me. I watch for the box of 100 for a buck a piece.
