Recommended CR123 rechargeables?

Greets,

Just upgraded a few bulbs on my Surefires, but now they rape lithium cells. The new bulbs are designed for 3 3.7V cells.

I bought a few rechargeables over the years, but nothing impressed me so far.

Any success stories out there?

I bought a pack of "golston" 650mah 3.6v lithium rechargables for my surefire at a gun show, no real complaints. Battery life is ok, no complaints.
EDIT I use these cells in an upgraded LED lamp. Don't know if they will work 100% in a incandescent bulb.

I am currently using Tenergy rechargeables. However, they do not work 100% on any Surefire INCANDESCENT LAMPS. It appears they don't have enough voltage or power to light up the lamp. However, they are awesome on any LED lights I have such as the Surefire M600 Scout light, Pentagon L3, and Gladius Night Ops. In short, in my opinion rechargeables work nicely on LED lights only; keeping in mind that the batteries you use do not EXCEED the maximum voltage the LED can handle.

Lots of CPF'ers like AW's.

Or safe chemistry LiFePO4

/Edit
And I'm pretty sure most RCR123 have TOO MUCH voltage for incans (will blow them out). LED can handle extra voltage (but it will reduce their life span depending how much it's overdriven).
