This month The She Shepherd’s RMR battery died. Not unexpected, but still a great reason to have back up iron sights on any red dot-equipped weapon.
The other big news this month is that I’ve completely switched to rechargeable batteries on all of our flashlights and weapon-mounted lights. Once the alkaline batteries die 2 of our safe lights I’ll replace those with rechargeables as well.
Next week I’ll write a post about my switch, and some pitfalls you need to avoid when choosing rechargeable batteries and chargers.
