Same crap when 20amps went to 25 and then 30, 35 now 40 ect ect...

Matchers weed out the junk and cherry pick the good stuff so we dont have to do it our selves..... You all think the IB4200s are bad now? Imagine that we had not matchers at all, and you dropped by your LHS and randomly picked loose cells for your packs!! YIKES!! If they where GP3300s i would not be so worried.. But IB4200s??? No thanks, ill LEt SMC and the boys hit them hard first before i buy them...

the numbers are actually going to drop, the discharge curve is going to be lower because of the extra load...

One thing that would be intresting to see is a AVG VOLTS @ 300sec. This would be a nice standard used to compare numbers from brands XYZ. But again a 35 vs 40 amp draw would effect the numbers at 300seconds too. One gets hit harder so the 40's would look worse on paper initially.
