I have a 4 cell version of one of these in the starter box for my toy car's .21 cubic inch engine! The big problem with lipo batteries is you really don't want to deep discharge them - they don't like it and tend to swell up before self igniting!

Although the current draw capacity is ace the storage capacity will soon be used trying to start anything of a decent size

Li-fe cells are slightly safer as they will take a deep discharge and I use them for in car electrics - they don't mind a bit of knocking about either
