Default Looking for special type of Lipo

Hello, i am looking for a special form factor lipo cell. Maybe someone knows about it, or has seen it somewhere.
It should have the measurement of roughly 60x60x10mm. Are there any thick lipos like this at all? Especially thick is important. I found cells in the form but with only around 900mah's. They are like 6mm thick. I like to have some more capacity in one single cell this going up in thickness is the option for me.

regards.

can you stretch the height to 12mm? If so, you could stack two of the 900mah cells and wire them in parallel.

thanks for the info so far. The link gives me an overview of whats available. The 2000mah with 5.5×57×66 dimensions would be very good.

I cannot stack the cells. I only do have a single cell charge controller.

Just have to figure out where i can order one of these cells.

Wiring the cells in parallel, they will still read as a 1S pack. Your capacity is what will increase.

yeah but cell voltage is not perfectly equal on each cell right? Wouldnt they drift appart with time and then just one cell gehts overcharged and die?
Edit: guess they equalise each other out. Read that on other pages. Just have to get 2 cells of equals capacity and make sure both are chargered to same volage before joining.
