Are Fremco a123 batteries the same as the duralites A123(What Ithink most of us use on our jets)?Or is the fremco a123 different?

As far as I know genuine A123's are only available in 2300Mah and 1100Mah, so if you are offered any batteries that are not multiples of these capacities they are in all probability not genuine A123's

Fromeco has both the genuine A123's (called Extreme), and the knock off A123's (called Iron Corp). You can also tell which is which by the stated capacity, as Bald Eagel stated.
I'm not familiar with what Duralite has in the way of A123's.

Dat,

A123's are A123's. As you know, there are a few of us that package them in different configurations, some even add other on-board electronics. Personally, I think additional electronics such as on-board balancers are unnecessary, and potentially additional points of failure.

Beware of others advertising LiFePO4 as A123's. While that is the same basic chemical make-up of A123's, they do not contain the nano-phosphate technology that makes A123's what they are. The voltage is the same, but the performance is considerably different.

We only sell real A123's in either 2300 or 1100 Mah configuration (unless you get the packs in parallel, such as a 4600 Mah pack).
