then there is a 5000mah 25C version which works out at 125A continuous

one other thing is a charger, do i need a seperate balancer(right word?) and charger or do they come in one
does anyone have any recommendations?
When you do the calculation, remember that 1000mAh = 1Ah. So yes, 120,000mA = 120A.

Some chargers like certain Hyperions and FMA have built-in balancers. Personally, I like outboard ones for a little more versatility...
