You can buy them at most stores that sell batteries. Amazon has them too if that helps.
I should also mention, if you are looking for rechargeables instead, NiMh batteries are much less likely to leak than alkalines. I have had great luck with eneloop brand NiMh rechargeables

Eveready invented the first AA battery in 1907. I did not know Eveready owned Energizer. I also did not know they are the same as National Carbon Company. That means from the time of the invention of the first commercially available dry cell in 1896 to the invention of first AA battery in 1907 was only about 11 years. That means AA batteries were on the scene very early in battery history, as if they were meant to be, due to being fundamentally an ideal size or something.

I forgot to include a link to the actual AA Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries:

I’m not in the battery game but do you even need an adapter? It says the item weight for these AA batteries is .16 oz which converts to 4.54 grams. So the g305 would be 80.54 grams. Am I missing something?
Sounds like you need a decently bright, durable light that runs on batteries that will take a very long time to drain, and won't mind temperature extremes.
I don't usually recommend lights that run on AA cells, but if you're looking something you can just leave in your vehicle and never have to think about charging, you probably want something that runs on lithium primary batteries (not lithium ion, NiMH, and definitely not alkaline). Lithium primary batteries are much less affected by hot and cold temperatures and will hold a charge much longer than any other typical consumer battery.
Your best bet for a mix of durability, quality, brightness, and features would be either the:

or
Both lights will be very durable and high quality (Armytek and Zebralight are noted for this - though questions have been raised about Armytek), and more than bright enough.
You should use a lithium primary AA battery, such as the Energizer Lithium. That way you can throw it in the light and never think about it until you run it down from use, or maybe in about 20 years of non-use.

EDIT: And by the way, I recommend a AA lithium rather than a lithium CR123 for two reasons:
(1) Due to the AA's higher capacity (3,000 mAh vs the CR123's 1,500 mAh typical), the AA will have longer runtimes before needing a replacement, and
(2) The shelf life of a lithium AA is typically around 20 years vs. a CR123's typical 10 years. That means a AA lithium should have more juice and hold up better when you need it.
The added brightness some CR123 lights can achieve is not going to be that noticeable or matter much for your occasional use, but the extra runtime and shelf life will.
Lithium batteries https://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Ultimate-Lithium-Batteries-Pack/dp/B071D87WPV ,weigh less and last longer :). AAA with tin foil wont harm the mouse but can come loose and lose contact as I had with mine. I fixed that by wrapping the battery in paper towel to make the fit tighter and haven't had any problems. The lightest option is lithium AAA with tin foil which can get the mouse around 82 grams.
forgot to say these are the batteries i use https://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Ultimate-Lithium-Batteries-Pack/dp/B071D87WPV/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=lithium+batteries&qid=1557774619&s=gateway&sr=8-3
I like this one, it’s very light and I just bring extra batteries.
