That's really a meaningless question. There is nothing inherently inefficient about the Vruzend battery kits, just like there is nothing inherently inefficient about spot welded battery packs.
But the Vruzend kits have been designed for 3.5A per cell, where as 0.1mm x 5mm nickle strip carries only 2.1A. If you upgraded to 0.3mm x 7mm, you could go 10A.
But that's still not the end of the story. If you were only drawing 2A per cell, all of those would be as efficient as each other. If you were drawing more than 3.5A, then the order would be thick nickel, Vruzend, thin nickel, but the differences still wouldn't be noticeable probably until 7-10A constant. if it's just an occasional burst starting from stand still or going up a short hill, and the overall impact might be less than 1%, and how are you going to notice that?
Design to spec, and you don't have to worry about these things. If you're unsure how to do that, ask here. Post what cells you're using, which configuration, what controller, and a description of your ride.
