Top Reasons to Run a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit on Your Next Trip
When your rig needs long nights of lights and music, a dedicated secondary power source keeps the starter ready for the moment that matters. With an 80A isolator, Key ON combines sources; Key OFF isolates the starter so accessories draw from the auxiliary battery.
Run accessories without draining your stock battery
Run light bars, audio, GPS, and cabin heat while keeping the starter untouched. 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.
- Reserve capacity: Gain additional amp-hours for big-draw accessories during long rides.
- Reduced strain: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Automatic management: No manual switches—key position controls behavior automatically.
Can-Am Dual Battery Kit: Features & Benefits
Here’s what the upgrade delivers for trails and daily reliability. The design pairs automatic energy management with a rugged mount and sealed cells to keep electronics running without risking the starter.
With an 80 amp isolator, sources link Key ON and the starter is isolated Key OFF. Automation prevents accessory drain on the starting battery.

In the Box: What You Get
A clear parts list explains what’s included and how each piece protects the starter while feeding accessories.
Opt for a complete package with the secondary AGM or go bracket-only when you already have a compatible cell. Both options protect starting power and add capacity for lights/audio/recovery.
Primary components
- Battery isolator relay (80A) for charge management between sources.
- Model-specific harness that reduces splices and speeds installation.
- Distribution hardware featuring fused points for clean accessory feeds.
- Reinforced bracket to secure components against vibration/impacts.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
| Component | Role | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Adds capacity | Keeps starter ready while running accessories |
| 80A isolator relay | Manages charge and isolation | Stops accessory drain on starter |
| Model harness | Wiring link | Simplifies install 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. It integrates with existing charging/accessory circuits for organized, reliable routing.
Straightforward Installation
Install is straightforward so your rig stays trail-ready with minimal downtime.
Start with a clear workspace and the labeled parts laid out before you. Mount the bracket, place the second cell, and route the harness to labeled terminals.
Key Position Behavior Made Simple
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.
| Step | What to do | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Secure to reinforced points | Maintains clamp load under vibration |
| Place 2nd cell | Seat and fasten with clamp | Protects terminals and service access |
| Connect harness | Follow labeled leads and fuse points | Simplifies future upgrades and diagnostics |
Most DIYers can complete the install with basic tools. The amp-rated isolator and proper cables keep power delivery steady and protect starting batteries during long rides.
Performance, Charging, and Long-Term Maintenance
Robust, steady power sustains aftermarket electronics under load. With proper charging and routine care, reliability repeats season after season.
Look for steadier voltage and better results with amps, winches, and powerful lights. The auxiliary AGM trims voltage dips on spikes, keeping sound clean and lights bright.
Use a charger/maintainer to prevent sulfation
Regular top-offs with a quality maintainer help prevent sulfation—the main cause of capacity loss in AGM designs. UTV Stereo recommends topping cells between trips to preserve capacity and extend lifespan.
- The system preserves stock battery health by isolating starting power when the key is off.
- While running, the alternator replenishes reserves so long rides restore charge efficiently.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant AGM design curbs damage over rough terrain.
| Aspect | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Steadier 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 | Extended service life | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Pro tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. It cuts surprises and preserves next-morning starts on every trip.
