Lithium polymer batteries are generally smaller, and just as light. I'm talking something like the batteries made by Antigravity; they are not the only company making them. But keep in mind, with all batteries, if they short, like salt water exposure will do, they discharge. This rapid discharge creates heat. With lithium based batteries, it can create a tremendous amount of heat.
