It says in the description that it works in place of two "AA" cells. Would be great if it replaced "AAA" cells. Then they would fit in the car with only modification to the battery holders. Now, these are CR-V3 type batteries made by "Emerging Power". Im not too sure if these can be bought seperatly, but if so, 60+ bucks for li-ions is horrible. Plus, they're mainly made for cameras, not sure how they will perform in xmods.

Not all are rechargable. I found some lithium batteries in the electronics section of walmart that were like 10 bucks for two ("AA" size) for cameras and stuff, but had the do not charge warning on them.

Not rechargable I dont think, and they were already discussed on this forum, or one of the xmod forums. They cant put out enough power fast enough for xmods, or at least thats what i was told.

you guys should be looking for Lithium Ion or Lithium Polymer batteries. No regular lithium batteries are rechargeable.

In addition, www.blindbatts.com has li-polys for $3.

Well, IC-3s are wonderful, but for the price, you could set up a lithium kit. Btw, nice find Devryn! I want to hook up a lithium kit, but not sure if i want to drill and solder my board, maybe ill just use stock wireing.
