Excellent price/performance, short circuit proof, overload proof etc...

Long lasting power for a cheap price. You can also power the H-Bridge (you know, the famous L298 one) for DC motors up to 2Amps (continuous).
Lots of cheap power.
Good luck,

For my smaller robots, I use the 3800 and 4800 mah RC battery. NMiH.
They both have their own special charger for the batteries.
