I think it say it all. Don’t buy these batteries if you need any power!!"

It says it all!
Your right.
The test, if I'm not mistaken, is based on a 10ah packs and anyone who has bought one of these knows it has limitations - Ping says that at the ordering stage, that's why he asks about the maximum ah.
This test is at the extreme end (I think it says it all when you read)

.... I've been testing a single 36-volt 20ah ping pack on my Viento. Now there is no way this battery can run the bike (275amp controller and perm 132 motor geared for 42mph top speed) ....

This guy sound like a real speed junky. The legal limit for the UK (where I live) is 200-watt motor 15mph max power.

I don't see how someone can go claiming these packs are rubbish, when they are pushing them far beyond their intended use or capability.

Those sort of people are going to give electric bike’s a bad name (very likely attract the roving eye of the law) – why don’t they go and buy a bloody moped?
