Top Reasons to Run a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit on Your Next Trip
If you run lights and audio late, a second power source keeps the starter prepared. With an 80A isolator, Key ON combines sources; Key OFF isolates the starter so accessories draw from the auxiliary battery.
Use accessories freely and preserve your stock battery
Power more accessories like light bars, sound systems, GPS, and in-cab heaters without depleting your starting source. The accessory supply supplies steady voltage for sensitive electronics, reducing dimming and voltage dips when loads spike.
Confident starts thanks to preserved stock starting power
The isolator-driven system automatically prioritizes preserving stock battery so your machine cranks strong after a long night with electronics running.
- Extra reserve: The auxiliary cell adds amp-hour reserve for high-draw gear on trail or at camp.
- Reduced strain: Offloading accessories reduces stress on the starting circuit and components.
- Automatic management: No manual switching required—system behavior is automatic based on key position.

Item | Function | Why it matters |
---|---|---|
Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Starter remains ready during accessory use |
80A isolator relay | Controls charge/isolation | Stops accessory drain on starter |
Model harness | Connects components | Easier installs and service access |
Distribution block & hardware | Clean accessory feeds | Neat fused circuits for lights and audio |
Parts are off-road ready and sealed as needed for dust/moisture resistance. The complete package integrates with existing charge and accessory circuits so routing stays organized and reliable.
Straightforward Installation
Simple installation keeps you trail-ready without losing hours in the garage.
Begin with a clean workspace and lay out labeled parts. Install the bracket, seat the second battery, then connect the labeled harness leads.
Simple Key ON/Key OFF behavior
Key ON links sources via 80A isolator; key OFF isolates the starter. The design routes accessory load to the aux battery, preserving the starter after extended stops.
Secure mounting + clean harness routing
Route the harness along factory paths, secure it with clips, and add abrasion protection at pinch points. Supplied hardware enables clean grounds and fused feeds—avoid daisy-chains.
Stage | What to do | Why it matters |
---|---|---|
Mount bracket | Bolt into reinforced points | Maintains clamp load under vibration |
Place 2nd cell | Seat battery and clamp firmly | Keeps terminals safe and serviceable |
Connect harness | Connect labeled leads/fuse points | Makes upgrades and diagnostics easier |
Most DIYers can complete the install with basic tools. Properly rated isolator and cables stabilize delivery and protect the starter on extended rides.
Performance, Charging, and Long-Term Maintenance
Robust, steady power sustains aftermarket electronics under load. Routine care and proper charging make performance repeatable each season.
Look for steadier voltage and better results with amps, winches, and powerful lights. A dedicated auxiliary AGM reduces spike-related dips, keeping audio clean and lights bright.
Use a charger/maintainer to prevent sulfation
Use a good maintainer to prevent sulfation, the primary cause of capacity loss in AGM batteries. UTV Stereo recommends topping cells between trips to preserve capacity and extend lifespan.
- Key OFF isolation preserves stock battery health.
- When running, the alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recovery on long rides.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant agm battery construction reduces damage from rough terrain.
Aspect | Benefit | What to do |
---|---|---|
Performance | Stable voltage under load | Use a new secondary agm to support high-draw accessories |
Charging | Lower long-term capacity loss | Employ a quality charger/maintainer between outings |
Long-term care | Longer service life | Do routine maintenance charging on sealed cells |
Pro tip: Keep a suitable maintainer handy to stay topped up. It cuts surprises and preserves next-morning starts on every trip.
