Hi,
The only way to balance an odd number of batteries is to use method #3 on the smartguage page. I don't think you could do that with only one extra foot of wire.
However method #2 is an improvement on #1 for sets over 3 jars.

If you wish to understand the "why" surf here:
correctly interconnecting multiple twelve volt batteries
I rewired my 3 - 12V house batteries to the proper way. Winnebago had all the connections from the end + - battery posts on the slide out tray.
It took about 15 inches more wire. I guess saving a foot plus of wire for every coach they built with this battery arrangement was worth the savings to them.
