I know the Dewalt pack seems to be the main source for getting these cells, but are there other options out there? Any other tool manufacturers? I seem to recall someone mentioning Black and Decker and Walmart...

Thanks for the info.

If you want premade packs or lose cells here is another option. I bought one of the 3S2P packages, it is well made and neatly wired.

They are also available from the manufacturer (A123) and HorizonHobby in packs and single cells, here are a couple links to get you started there:

I have added a page up to the research portion of my website to help track the available LiFePO4 (A123) cells along side all the lipos and other electric flight components. Let's hope for better availability of these cells in the near future with all the power plays being made in the corporate world surrounding this tech right now. Here's a snapshot and a link to the page which is in sortable spreadsheet format:
