My issue here it that these kids are going to the 60C BURST rating here and think its the same as the 30C CONTINUOUS rating. The proof is in the pudding on this claim. And I'm sure this isn't the only guy I have noticed.

Honestly, changing the rating system sounds like a ploy to take advantage of the misinformed. They see the "60C" rating printed on the pack and think this is one hell of a pack if rated at 60C, think of it as a continuous rating of course. Just seems like another advertising plot thats going to mislead people into misunderstood buying. Sure they can read the specs underneath, but do you really think most truly understand what they mean. They see the 60C printed on the label and think thats a wrap.

Any comments? Questions Concerns?

Honestly , I took it the same way. Many of the batts say 60C burst, The ones we are talking about testing say 60 and 70C. The current is there as well. Then many of the batts list the "constant" and "sustained" and "burst"

I'm guessing it is an oversight (mistake) since a similar pack shows this

25C Constant(105 amps)
35C Sustained(147 amps)
60C Burst(252 amps)

I'm also guessing that a fair current on the "70C" packs would be around 30-35C , but am willing to pull them at whichever current Austin feels is safe. Get the info right from the "man" so to speak.
