 The Thunderpower charger has a firmware update to charge the A123 batteries, just download off the internet and use cable to load to charger.
 No I'm not sponsored and I aint selling anything just info.

Kelly,

Yeah, I have heard and read about these in some of the RC magazines. Slightly less voltage than a lipo cell, slightly less energy density (IIRC) but much faster charge/discharge times, many more expected cycles, and supposedly safer. Standard lipo/lion chargers won't work wtih them, however.

I also saw where A123 will be working with GM on the all-electric plug-in car that GM recently announced they were developing.
