!@#$!# Yes, that is who I bought them from. I think they were around $10/cell, which is the only reason I chose them over a Dewalt pack. Well, good to know, and thanks very much for chiming in.
So I guess I need new cells and a MMM.
At the moment, I am completely impressed by the Weller 80 W iron, and I can't see the reason to get a better one. With the Weller, I could easily tin/solder the A123 cells in the 1 sec suggested by people in this thread... it's just that when I learned to solder, I was taught to let it sizzle for a few seconds to ensure that no cold joint forms. In the future, I'll try to solder it as fast as possible. For more precise work, I have a nice regulated Weller station.
Again, thanks for the responses.
