Hi Dantley,
The Li-Ion batteries are also 7.4 volts nominal.
The issue is that due to the different internal resistance between Lipos and Lions, their voltage under the same load are quite different.
At 7.4 volts under 1 amp load, Lions still have about 85% of its capacity left, while Lipos have only 50% (and both are 7.4 nominal).

Regards

Jack
