I could try hooking up my 200amp 300uH inductor between the batteries and the capacitor, then hook up the oscilloscope on B+ and B- on the capacitor (so current spikes can't be pulled from the batteries, only smoothness comes from them). Then, from the voltage spike drop or whatever, and the 100uOhm advertised resistance, maybe we can infer the ripple current?
