Buy Can Am Dual Battery Kit Online Today
Surprising fact: an extra 18 amp hours on a UTV can transform long-ride lighting and audio use. That extra capacity lets accessories run longer while your starter stays protected.
A purpose-built 80A isolator links both batteries Key ON and isolates the starter Key OFF so accessories pull from the second battery. A heavy-duty mount resists vibration and impacts for true off-road service.
Expect a fresh, sealed AGM that ships fully charged plus vehicle-matched hardware. The online ATV parts system is maintenance-free in daily use, though a charger or maintainer is recommended to prevent sulfation and extend life.
Shop online for clear fitment and fast delivery so a customer can move from order to install with minimal downtime. You keep stock starting capacity and gain usable amp-hours for winch, lights, and audio everywhere you ride.
Why Choose a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit for Your Next Adventure
For long nights of lights and music, a dedicated auxiliary source keeps the starter ready when you need it. An 80A isolator ties both batteries Key ON and isolates the starter Key OFF so accessories pull from the aux cell, not the stock one.
Run accessories without draining your stock battery
Drive light bars, audio, GPS, and heaters without draining the starter. You get steadier voltage to sensitive electronics, reducing dim and drop during load spikes.
Confident starts with stock battery starting preserved
An isolator-managed system preserves the stock battery so cranking stays strong after long accessory use.
- Reserve capacity: Gain additional amp-hours for big-draw accessories during long rides.
- Less wear: Moving accessory load off the starter lowers wear on circuits/components.
- Smart energy management: No manual switches—key position controls behavior automatically.
Key Features & Benefits of the Can-Am Dual Battery Kit
Here’s what the upgrade delivers for trails and daily reliability. Automatic control plus a rugged mount and sealed cells keep electronics powered while protecting the starter.
With an 80 amp isolator, sources link Key ON and the starter is isolated Key OFF. This automation prevents accessory draw from draining your starting source.
Rugged mounting bracket for vibration and hits
Reinforced brackets keep components anchored over washboard and landings. Resistance to loosening and fatigue keeps installs tidy and easy to service.

In the Box: What You Get
A clear parts list explains what’s included and how each piece protects the starter while feeding accessories.
Pick a full package including the auxiliary AGM, or choose bracket-only when you already have a compatible cell. Both options protect starting power and add capacity for lights/audio/recovery.
Main components
- 80 amp battery isolator relay to manage charging/isolation.
- Harness, model-specific, to simplify wiring and speed install.
- Distribution hardware featuring fused points for clean accessory feeds.
- A reinforced bracket that secures the assembly against vibration and impacts.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
Item | Function | Why it matters |
---|---|---|
Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Starter remains ready during accessory use |
80A isolator relay | Manages charge and isolation | Prevents accessory draw from draining starter |
Model harness | Connects components | Easier installs and service access |
Distribution block & hardware | Fused accessory feeds | Tidy fused circuits for lights/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
Install is straightforward so your rig stays trail-ready with minimal downtime.
Prep a clear workspace and lay out the labeled parts. Mount the bracket, place the second cell, and route the harness to labeled terminals.
Simple Key ON/Key OFF behavior
The 80 amp isolator links both sources when the key is on and lets the starting cell remain battery isolated when the key is off. This isolator design allows isolate new accessory loads so your starter stays reserved after long stops.
Secure mounting + clean harness routing
Use factory routing, secure with clips, and sleeve abrasion points. Use the supplied hardware to make clean grounds and fused distribution points instead of daisy-chaining accessory feeds.
Step | Action | Reason |
---|---|---|
Mount bracket | Bolt into reinforced points | Handles vibration and maintains clamp load |
Place 2nd cell | Seat and fasten with clamp | Keeps terminals safe and serviceable |
Connect harness | Connect labeled leads/fuse points | Makes upgrades and diagnostics easier |
Basic tools are enough for most mechanically inclined owners. Amp-rated isolator plus proper cabling stabilize power and protect the starter on long rides.
Performance, Charging, and Long-Term Maintenance
Steady power keeps aftermarket UTV electronics performing under heavy loads. Routine care and proper charging make performance repeatable each season.
Expect steadier voltage with better performance for amps, winches, and high-output lights. A dedicated auxiliary AGM reduces spike-related dips, keeping audio clean and lights bright.
Prevent sulfation with a charger/maintainer
Regular charging with a quality maintainer prevents sulfation, which is the leading cause of capacity loss in agm battery designs. UTV Stereo recommends topping between trips to preserve capacity and extend life.
- The system preserves stock battery health by isolating starting power when the key is off.
- Running engine alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recharge on long rides.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant AGM design curbs damage over rough terrain.
Area | Gain | What to do |
---|---|---|
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 | Do routine maintenance charging on sealed cells |
Tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. This reduces surprises and preserves morning starts trip after trip.
