Li-Ion Hypersonic 2300 6.6V Hotwire?

[Aircraft800]

Has anyone tried one of the A123Racing packs for a Hotwire setup yet? I have seen another thread about this one back a month or so, but didn't bookmark it. The A123 systems cells have some incredible drain rates, and this pack looks like it would fit a "D" lite. I can't see any bulb that would match this well using LuxLuthors Destructive Bulb thread. What do you think?

Looks like just 2 A123 cells in series. I would say the Philips 5761 30W bulb would work fine. Estimate about 23-26 minute run time.

Yea, I guess it's a ripoff considering that you can buy the individual A123 Systems cells here from members who disassembled cordless tool packs. I see no advantage of this pack over individual cells since a external balancer is needed anyway. :ironic:

oh Well...
