This Is What A 500-Amp Voltage Drop Rectifier Looks Like

This is a Schottky rectifier rated 500-amperes. 250 amperes per rectifier (The pyramid shaped things atop the bar) At 100 amperes current (50 per pyramid) the voltage drop is .251. Example 15 volts...

Figured it was something like that Mex. very easy to do.. But what is the correct voltage drop across those thing, 0.275 or 2.75? Might need to know some day. i know high current Diodes sometimes have greater drop than low current ones.
