David, looks like 5 cells per pack, and each cell is 3000mah. David, I think that if you actually did read you would actually find something :004:. With two packs, you can make 5s2p, which is 18.5v 6000mah, with a discharge rating of 90amps continous. Total weight would be about 1000g (1kg), or about the weight of 15 NiMh cells. The voltage will be comparable to (but better than) 16 NiMh cells, and runtimes would be much better.
