We have Pololu 37D 30:1 gearmotors - https://www.pololu.com/product/1103
The battery is a "12V" lifepo4 (Shoria, not spec'd for this use, they don't like that at all (they've chided me about it) but have still done returns for me) - In the past the battery killed my R/C motor and ESC because the volts are > 12V, however this is the same motor we use for L3-G0's dome, so I'm not worried about that. The battery's probably overkill, but it's the same as we have in the other droid.
We aren't particularly happy with our batteries, they are motorcycle replacement and not intended for deep cycle, so we kill them faster than we should - however we haven't found a replacement yet.
