The two cells matches very nicely and capacity is nearly constant at different loads.
Sadly my holder melted at the 30A test, probably because my temperature sensor was out of battery preventing my script from stopping the test if the battery got hot.

[size=+3]Conclusion[/size]

It looks like a good high current battery, it maintain voltage well at 30A, but may need a temperature cut-off.
