I used to run a dewalt 820 on 18 cells through a tekin 420. It was a very powerful setup, that motor can draw some serious amps. I would go li-po first for sure. I switched to a 9xl on the same 18 cells and the power was basically the same. Your setup is only as good as your batteries.

Edit: Don't bother with other big brushed motors, 700's, 970's etc. The dewalt 820 is by far the best.
