LOL, I bet you'd love to be the person to perfom all these test... I know I wouldn't mind.. house full of LiPos, imagine that...

I can definitely tell which one is good

. If they can handle our stuff, they can handle anything. A video of the test should also provide some form of where the data came from. A burst test should be done to confirm the pack can withstand the burst rating. Afterwards one should be able to establish a safe continuous and burst C rating on their own and not just go by what a factory puts on the cell. It all comes down to a little commom sense on the rating of cells and to avoid situations like the ones mentioned. All the batteries I've tested and owned does come with a factory C rating, but I like to beat them up a bit to see if they can live through it.
