Hi John,
500 watts per cell does not equate to 3000 watts per jar. The cells are in series not in parallel.
800 A x 12 volts = 9600 watts. That works out to 1600 watts per cell.
Perhaps I am not understanding what you are trying to say?
Yes, I get crazy looks when I test at stores with a Kill-a-watt unit before I purchase.

The telcos I have spec 800A max and 500W per cell(3000W per jar) along with duration specs. I am very comfortable with testing capacity with 700-800W draws.
Also, I have been acquiring 120V appliances that work with the 1000W inverter.
HTH;
