e-Lite Machines Corona > Another battery question

I just bought an Astro 020 brushless setup and Astro says to use an 8 cell pack. I was thinking about using lithium batteries but not quiet sure which ones to use.
A 2 or 3 cell pack and about what size (ie 2100mah)?
I would like to get about 15 minute flights. Or would it be best to use say, and 8 cell 3300mah pack?
Any suggestions? Thanks Graham

IMHO, I think 8 cells is a bit much for the Astro powered Corona. It flys great on 7 cells. It's a rocket on 8 cells. I've seen 15+ minute flights on a matched 7-cell GP3300 pack.
