Lipo Battery Standards, open discussion

yeah, the temps are a little on the conservative side, but you also don't want to give people the idea that it is OK to run them at 140*F because you KNOW people will push it (just like everything else).

As far as the rating, maybe change to:

This pack is rated for 20C continous with no less than 3.4v (for 90% of the cycle) @ 120*F (+/- 5*F).
This pack is rated for 30C burst with no less than 3.2v (for 90% of the cycle) @ 130*F (+/- 5*F).

And then a little note stating the absolute max temperature and the fact that performance will suffer with cooler temps. Also, maybe a little blurb to summarize the burst test: Burst = repetitive 30C rate for 0.5s with 10C rate for 2.5 seconds.
