Last year I bought 10 rechargeable CR123 batteries for less than $10US. They can fit in a CR2 charger I bought earlier. A good many of my later film cameras use CR123 batts.

Now, what I would like to have is a rechargable 2CR5 battery and charger. But those are very expensive IF you can find one.

I made one (a rechargeable 2CR5) with the 16340s. It works well enough, but you have to remove the cells from the housing to charge them.

Have you tried your rechargeable CR123As in a Maxxum 7? Googling this mostly  gives reports of people saying they do not work.
