I have the same irrigation system and mine is on the wall by itself and the wiring is all hidden, so no idea what happened here. People DO get bored and try to fix something that isn't broken!
The battery is probably for the irrigation timer, although the number of times you lose power is very minimal.

The battery is not for the irrigation timer. The irrigation timer maintains the settings even when the power goes out, and the Hunter box has an optional 9 volt battery that an be used to change the settings when there is no power. The large battery box is more likely a booster for the cable tv system. I don't think Xfinity uses these boosters anymore.
