LiPo Bottle-Style Pack in 14S Configuration?

Does anyone know whether (or better yet where) one could buy a LiPo Bottle-Style Pack in 14S Configuration? I am looking for about 8-10Ah. I have seen lots in 13S configuration but nothing with 14S.

I doubt bottle battery uses LiPolymer cells, they are usually pouches cells.
Or do you mean just any kind of Lithium cells ?

I was just looking for either a bottle or kettle pack that delivered a nominal voltage very close to a 16s LifePO4 pack - which I believe would be (3.65x16 =) 58.4V. A 14s LiPo would nominally be (4.2x14 =) 58.8V. Doesn't matter if it's cells or pouches.

LiFePo4 is typically 3.3v per cell (which is why they tend to be heavier). So, you are looking at 51.2V. Why not get 48V and call it a day? Those bottle batteries are easy to find.
