Just take the mm dimensions listed and divide them by 25.4 and thats the inch measurement.

They are 2.32" x 6.22" x 0.866".

The specs list it as:
59mm wide X 158mm long X 22mm thick.
Converting to inches is simply a matter of taking mm and dividing by 25.4. So, in inches:
2.32" wide X 6.22" long X 0.87" tall.
Since you are probably looking to make a battery tray, you want to estimate a little higher (and don't forget padding thickness if you use it). So, rounding the figures up a tad, that's:
2+3/8" wide X 6+1/4" long X 7/8" thick.

EDIT: jhautz beat me to it!

Yeah, them cells is BIG.

thanks for all the replies and yes i am trying to make trays

-good point on oversizing the trays thanks
-and are these rather big like aangel said or are these about average for this size lipoly batteries??

thanks again,

I suppose it's a matter of perspective, but I find them to be quite a bit larger than the average size pack. A battery tray hanging an extra .3 or .4 inches over the side of your chassis for a good 6" run is a lot. If you are putting them in a truck, you could always just stand them on their side, if your configuration will be wider than it is tall.
