Will this fry my F550?

I just made a post about moving up to a E300 upgrade for my F550. Problem is I'm not sure the batteries I use will not destroy those 15 amp ESC's
I use maxamp 9000mah xl 100c 4s. With the standard F550 and 20amp ESC's had no problem I was getting 17min flight time with go pro and gimbal.
Checked over the web and found no info on this except from a DJI engineer who stated 20 amp ESC's were way over kill when they first came out with these machines.
Is there anyone using high mah batteries with the e300 system and if so what if any was your flight time increased
Thanks William

It will not be a problem as the ESC will not be effected by battery size only battery voltage. You will only have a problem if you are trying to draw more than 15Amp thought the ESC which is very unlikely on the 550,

+1 to Soler.... The supply side is not the issue with ESC's but rather the current draw from the motors etc....
