Default RE: AXI 4130 w/Jeti 77esc?

As an obvious newbie to electric I have a quick question "hopefully". Just read that you should have a 6V regulator for your receiver when using Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) packs. I'm assuming these are not the same as Li poly or lithiums, correct? Here is what the site says:

"These cells do not loose any power after charging as other cells do. You never put them on trickle charge. A fully charged pack is approximately 8.4 volts and the servos will not take the higher current. You must use a Dedicated Charger and a 6V regulator for your Receiver. These packs can go to 7.4V before recharging."

I read this on the Super Battery's Packs web site, http://www.superbatterypacks.com/

I'm leaning towards the AXI 4130 and ThunderPower 4200mAh packs for my TF Corsair but not certain about the 16 or 20 version AXI. Also how best do you wire them in series. Is it a kit?

Thanks for your help.
