Battery cell recommendation

In order to avoid me asking about every single cell I come across, I would like to put together this compilation of battery cells we use, so this is to be a wiki so please feel free to contribute and correct any information.
I don’t have any experience buying cells, I bought a pack ready made once and some LiPo from Hobbyking before that so this kind of information would be useful to me to make a decision when presented with deals for bare cells.

I found this checklist on endless sphere, what do you guys think are those points relevant to us? We can still change a few things or remove what we don’t need…

Info/Spec Checklist;
A – Link to Mfg specs and purchase site
B – Brand name and Type of battery or cell
C – Capacity and Voltage, Rated maximum charge and discharge current.
D – Description of tests or riding = motor, rider & cargo weight, hills, speed, distance and meter reports.
E – Estimated number of cycles and depth of cycles actually performed so far and voltage and capacity difference from new.
F – Feedback on dealer or Mfg accessability and response to any problems or questions
