But when I went to Towerhobbies, it did not say to require that much stuff. Do I need to wrap each cell? SO much work! :eek:

You don't need all of that extra stuff, but it certainly helps (and can make the pack stronger). I would suggest heat shrinking each cell. This will protect it and allow you to easily rebuild the pack later.
