I understand they are the first to sell individual Lipo cells to stack like this but people have be doing "multiple voltage" lipos since forever. Its called a multiple packs and plugging them in series. For example, look at Chris's post below...

Powerpoles are very user friendly for wanting to make series or parallel connections. This is just a spin-off of this.
