In concept I don’t see a problem - depending on battery location I suppose it may have made for an easier install??
as long as it is coming from the solar controler it is fine, just clean up some of the crimp jobs or leave them and just watch if you get your hand near them. my original question was did they run strait off the panels or from the controler. if from the controler all is good. just a different place to tie in as long as the wire size is adiquate. I know I couldnt fit both sets of wires in mine as I have the battery ones maxed out other wise that would have saved me 6 feet of solar cable ;).
