I understand that .2C is the general rule of thumb for discharge rate in testing capacity, my question is if my primary purpose is matching cells for capacity (especially when they might be used in a situation with higher than .2C discharge), is can I discharge at a higher C to get through the test more quickly? I've tried some cheaper testers and some series discharge options and everything is getting more complicated and or taking longer.
I have a very nice siglent load tester that I can generate a pretty graph for and it can easily handle 30 amps but I have been sticking with 11 amps for .2C. 30 amps would be closer to .6C
Thanks for any information!
