Choose by the code the camera names: the Duracell CR123 656.990UK and CR2 656.991UK are both 3V lithium batteries designed for high drain digital cameras and camera flashlights. Check the battery type printed on the camera or in its manual before ordering, and match that code exactly rather than the nearest size.

Duracell Plus Power packs have a shelf life of up to 10 years with DURALOCK technology, so unused batteries keep their charge in storage for that long. The N 656.987UK keeps its charge for up to 5 years in storage with Duralock Power Preserve technology, and so does the MN21 656.988UK. Store spares in a cool, dry place.
