I guess I'm still not getting it. If they are saying you need batteries that are capable of more than 80 amps, why did they print "We suggest you never run the system at more than 80% of the max continuous rating."???

And their formula for the 5000mah 20C cells is right at 80%. Then they go on to say (as if you can't read! HA!), that they suggest a minimum of 4000mah 20C packs.

So, they say "never run at MORE than 80% of the max continuous rating" and suggest that the MMM can hit 100 amp peaks. Right? So if my Flightpower 5000 25C cells which according to their formula put out 100 amps max continuous, and they say "don't run the system at more than 80%", how can higher be better?

I mean, this is what I've assumed all along.. that the more on tap the better, but it seems to contradict what they are saying. It's almost like that thing they wrote up is written incorrectly. No?
