Joe, I notice the references you listed are for Li-ion batteries, not Li-poly. I believe the chemistry is different, li-poly cells have a higher power/density. I wonder if the information on your references apply to li-poly cells as well as li-ion. If so, I think it would have come up from the heavy users and li-poly testers on the 'other' RC forum.

If you read through carefully, it says the same applies for lithium polymer and other lithium based batteries.
