some paperwork that would clear my name from any wrong doing if they get hurt in any way, shape or form. What do you think?

Edit: The size for the 2700mAh is: 7.5mm X 43mm X 125mm.

Unfortunately that one would be a bit too big for my trays in a 5S config.

The custom trays I have are ~35mm wide, ~160mm long and unlimited tall (50-60mm max tho really)

I've been looking at some of the Turnigies, but they don't have any in the right sizes (it's still quite limited.) The 2250 cell you pictured would be perfect. Hell, if anything it could be longer.
Would also fit in my crt.5 nicely tho.

Any ideas on the MOQ or a very rough ballpark on price? I'm guessing the MOQ is rather large, maybe 30-50 pieces? Doubt its 10...

The 2700mAh would fit if you put 4 cells on their side and one on top

. I sent an e-mail asking for prices, so lets wait and see. If they're too high, I'll beat them down a bit like I did with the 2 cylindrical cells

. The MOQ is a bit high (I'm guessing, but it's usually 200pcs. for each capacity), but I might be able to work something out. I'll ask them if they can make a 10mm X 34mm X 150mm and see what capacity they'll come in at. Let me get some sort of pricing first for the soft flat cells and I'll ask about the custom cell later, I know they can do it.

It would, but then the voltage is too low for what I am wanting ;)
From my A123s, 4S lipo~=5S A123. 6S Life would be even better :)

The custom size would be absolutely awesome, but IDK how many would need a weirdo size like that, and I couldn't put 200 pieces to use no matter how hard I tried. :) If its a possibility, then awesome. I would think the cap should come out to ~3400mah then right? I use 8S 4000s now and its quite nice.

Ok, understood. I still haven't got the prices for the cells, so I'll have to make a phone call later tonight.

Ok, but I need to talk to them anyways regarding my 2 other LiFePo4 cells.

I'm flattered

, but I'm as dumb as they come

. I do appreciate your and many others' info and insight. I'm still learning and with more and more new things coming out, I'll probably be learning something new all the time.
