RCR123A should not discharge fast. They are probably better than Eneloops (I dunno). What brand battery are you using? Protected or not? What light? Does it drain the batt continuously while off?
Hi lanusb! Yea RCR123 should not self discharge fast. It seems like your battery has reached its end of cycle life, not being able to hold charge anymore and you should use a new one. Or the light has some drastic parisitic drain. Yeah, what light is that btw and what batteries you using?

...is there a torch that allows us to us AA (maybe 2 or 3) option and yet can produce 230 lumen output/??
There's a 2 AA light with 230 OTF and it's the EagleTac P20A2 MKII (Start off as 230 OTF, and goes down to 219 after 30 secs and 214 after 3 mins):
EagleTac P20A2_____MKII_______XP-G R5_______2 Tenergy NiMH AA _________ 230.0__________1 sec
But note, Philightsophy selling them with LOP reflector, good decent flood light and some throw capabilities. Great for close to medium range.
PS: The P20C2 I have is still awesome!!
