I agree, although don't you think that communicating the information is a large part of demystifying the cell/pack capabilities for the consumer?

Simple graphs or X/Y charts provide educated users raw information so they can make informed decisions but they may leave new users in a similar situation whereby savvy marketing can eclipse data

I'd love to see the data displayed in a 3 or 4 field adapted Venn diagram or maybe even a radar chart. I believe this is more approachable for new or casual users & goes a long way toward displaying the most appropriate use for the cell/pack...if the sweet spot matches your intended use - you should be good. In theory!!

I couldn't agree more here PBO!! This is the biggest problem. While its a brilliant marketing strategy, it's false hope for the best products in my eyes.

I think I gave the example in a prior post of even my LHS owner being misinformed of Maxamps C rating.

If there was a standard Graph or Venn diagram to post the packs performances, then manufacturers could advertise at extreme burst rates if they wanted. The proof of performance would be there in the diagrams.
