In saying all about these ratings are great to humans as we all go off numbers... So there is no harm in ppl saying this is better than the other...
But one thing should be looked at with batteries should be the quality of the cells with resistance and how close they are to being balanced in the pack....

That creates more heat than having a lower c rating. Poor cells struggle to supply power when the resistance to high within the cell. No point in having all these big batteries either if you havent got a really good charger to look after them.

No point in spending $100 on a pack and charging it with a $20 charger either... I hate to say it but the charger makes the batteries more than the battery itself sometimes with balancing the pack properly and so on....
