They must have meant to put 100C for max burst, but made an error.

Not really no, IF the cells are of good quality. Care to elaborate more beyond automatically poo pooing them?

2s2p is looking for trouble. There's no way to charge the 2p cells independently. So if one starts to drain more than the other, or takes charge more than the other, problems arise.

I am biased I am sorry, I purchase 4 2s2p zippys. I only have one left, and it poofs quite a bit now after a hot day run to lvc.

So now I am careful about the 2p or xp batteries. I know their characteristics.

Allright, valid points then.
