Importantly for use in pyro circuits, LiPo cells have a *very* low source impedance, which means they can source immense amounts of current.

Because this rapid discharge ability can pose a risk of fire, it's common for LiPo cells to come with a "protection board" integrated into the battery assembly that is designed to limit the current to some rate such as 2C continuous duty.
