OK, I'm going to ask a really stupid question which will show how little I know about batteries. Unless I am totally confused, LEAF modules contain two cells wired in parallel, but other than that everything is wired in series. Doesn't that mean 40kW would be traveling through each cell if the pack is under an 80kW load? (Well, if you want to get fussy, each cell would be absorbing and emitting about 1% of the electrons it sees, so only 39.6kW would be passing through.)
That's all right. Go ahead and laugh at me. I can take it. I obviously have a far too mechanistic concept of how a battery works.
