Default RE: Which ESC's can handle 11.1V???

I'm not wanting to buy another ESC to handle the extra voltage but wondering if my setups would be fine with a 3-cell LiPo. I know there are some out there that are listed to handle additional volts, but I guess I'm just a little mystified that the overwhelming majority is only rated for 6 to 7 cells. U-dUd, with your 8T and 16T Intellispeeds, what kinds of motors are you running off those ESC's and how aggressively are they geared. It's going to make a big difference how close to the the turn limit you are with the extra voltage you can run through the ESC, right?
