Default RE: single a123 for ignition unit

ORIGINAL: RTK

Well, I put twelve flights on my A123's witn no regulator on an rcexel ignition v-2. So far so good.
The difference between nano and non nano 123 batteries, as I understand it, is the nano are capable of higher burst and discharge rates. Whether nano or non nano Li fe all should work for an ignition and are probably insignificant in difference when it come to a flight pack too. Not much difference between 30 amp or 60++ amp discharge rate when it come to my airplanes.
RTK Sounds like the A123,s are going to work fine. Could anyone recomend any low cost chargers to use with the A123 cells? Are they the same cells that power many cord-less drills...ect on the market? Thanks capt,n
