500A from Leaf cells, ouch!
I don't think they will care for that.
What is your series-parallel setup with the cells?
How many amps when cruising at highway speed?

So, now that my Electric F-250 is fully functional with it's Leaf
batteries, I've been driving it more.
One of the odd things I have to deal with is that my other vehicle is a
nearly identical truck that is Diesel.
So, on the freeway with the Diesel (which I've been driving for years),
when accelerating into faster traffic, I have to make sure I have enough
room, and stomp on it.
Coming back from the Issaquah Drive Electric Week event, I got stuck
behind a truck doing 50mph, and the next lane was doing 65mph. Found a
gap, changed lanes, and stomped on the pedal. Then hit the brakes before
I rear-ended the car in front of me....
500A at 310V can provide a LOT of acceleration, even with a 6000lb
vehicle.
