I'm sure anybody with an XBE knows how their stock wiring is. I cut all my connectors off and installed Castle 5.5mm connectors that aren't paired into plugs. So... basically the + on the ESC goes to the + on battery 1 and the - on the ESC goes to the - on battery 2. Then, you have the joiner that goes from the - on battery 1 to the positive on battery 2. Now for my question. Can't we just plug the - on battery 1 to the positive on battery two and skip the joiner piece like in the pic? Basically it's the same thing but bypasses a series of wire.
The only thinig I can foresee going wrong is if the wire started to burn up there's such a short run that it may burn the wire all the way into the battery and start a fire. At least that joiner piece makes it a longer run through 2 plugs.
