It appears this is only on the 200+ Ah batteries. The 160s I'm considering still say 3000. Also all the batteries smaller than the 200s are still showing 3C constant vs the 2C constant, however, the 200s and over are saying .5C for the 4000 cycles at 70% DOD vs the only .3C for 3000 cycles at 70% DOD.

My question is did they change the 200+ cells or are they going to rerate all of the cells this way? I'd much rather see the .5C rating for extending the life on the smaller batteries too
