The C rating of the two packs separate doesn't change, but the two parallel packs have an effective double of the rated output. If one pack on it's own is rated for 50 and the other pack is rated for 50 the combined rating (the two packs are now sharing the load)


Edit: I see what you are saying.. yes.. you are correct, its just how we are saying it.. 50c are the packs ratings *example. This doesn't technically change but with two packs it is doubling how many amps can be drawn. 50c x 5000 = 250a 50c x 10000 = 500a

EDIT2: I fixed how I worded that above.. :P
