I wanted to know if anyone new if there is a 53VLiPo? Its for a school project, their building a robot or something like that... Or another way to get 53V, but it needs to be light as I think its for a reconnaissance robot.

7 x 7.4 lipos in series wont be far off

Yeah - its no problem really but size and weight will depend on the capacity it needs.

Anythoing is possible as its a pretty modular set up - just keep adding more cells!

Anyone know who could supply the batteries and most likely a charger(s) as well?

How many amps do you need? What capacity do you need? 53 volt is meaningless by itself.

53 volt (51.8V for 14 cell, 55.5 for 15 cell) is potential lethal if you use good enough packs. So be very careful. Easiest way would be to buy 3 5s1p packs for 55.5v.

Three of those, won't be too cheap. At 25C that's a good 55 amps though, only 2.17Ah though.

Three of these would allow 83 amps worth of juice, and 3.3Ah.

Feeling rich? 125 amps, tonnes of juice! 5Ah too.

If you don't need this kind of current, you can do for smaller lower C packs and save money and weight.

No idea on the quality of this, but 15C will mean 69 amps and 4.6Ah is reasonable.

But anyway, without your requirements it's like asking how long is a piece of string?

Ill find out tomorrow what exactly its being used for and get back to you, price shouldn't be an issue though, the project is happening in conjunction with a company who have offered up to £15K to build it
