One thing I have found from when I first got some M1 cells directly from A123 website 2 years ago and the cells you buy now from dewalt packs is the quality control. The original cells are absolutely identical... whereas the cells from these dewalt packs are all different, especially when you first use them.

Linc, A123 cells are good to a solid 70 amps, when I say solid I mean 'useful' power in a r/c application, although, I have had burst up to 120 amps (over 50C) on a 7s1p pack, which was 1800 watts. Any more and you should add a cell, and gear down, try it out, etc.
