I would run it to the B- on the controller so your OBC will still account for the energy units used and it keeps your battery terminals more tidy and less chance of corrosion on it.

OK, good idea, thanks... Question...is the wire not carrying more than 12v as it is coming off of the 4th battery positive terminal? There is not another leg coming off the original 4th battery so I assume its power is returning through another connection?..

I am not sure wit hot seeing a pic. If it is a 10g red wire then it is going to your charger receptacle. I have the 4x12 too and will not change from it. I love it.
