Is an EI  core better than a C-core?

In my opinion, Yes! The reason being is the  heat. 


All very interesting, and useful info. But for some reason, nearly all the  
military stuff over here has, for years, tended to use 'C' cores. I can see the 
 weight saving for aircraft stuff, but why would the Navy be so keen if there 
 weren't other advantages? Or the Army, bearing in mind that 'portable' to 
them  tends to mean 3 men and a truck?
 
I vaguely remember somewhere the claim that because the C cores are  
precision ground, the overall magnetic reluctrance is less.
