It really would be interesting to see how these stack up against A123 cells. Size, MAH, C rating etc. Are they the same size as A123s (I know how big these are but can't remember for a123)?

A123's are tough. But I have a couple of problems with them.

1. Lower overall voltage for the same cell count.

2. Voltage really sags under a load especially in a 1P configuration

I believe these are 15C continous 20C Burst but I'm not sure because I seen on place boasting 100 amp Burst ratings............

Need more input! LOL

Yes these are the same size as an A123 cell.
