Surprising fact: with 18 additional amp hours, long rides feel different for lights and sound. This added capacity powers accessories longer and keeps the starter protected.
A purpose-built 80A isolator links both batteries Key ON and isolates the starter Key OFF so accessories pull from the second battery. Its heavy-duty mount resists vibration/impacts for real off-road use.
Arrives fresh, sealed AGM and fully charged and hardware sized to match your vehicle. The Honda pioneer 1000-5 lift kit setup needs no daily maintenance, but using a charger/maintainer helps prevent sulfation and lengthen life.
Order online for clear fitment data and quick delivery, reducing time from purchase to install. 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
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.
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: A second battery gives extra amp hours for high-draw gear at camp or on long rides.
- Reduced strain: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Smart energy management: No manual switches—key position controls behavior automatically.
Can-Am Dual Battery Kit: Features & Benefits
Practical advantages for real trails and day-to-day reliability. Automatic control plus a rugged mount and sealed cells keep electronics powered while protecting the starter.

Kit Contents
Here’s what you receive and how it protects the starter yet feeds 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
- An 80 amp battery isolator relay module to manage charge flow between sources.
- Model-specific harness to limit splices and speed installs.
- Power distribution hardware with fused connection points for clean accessory feeds.
- Bracket, reinforced, to resist shock and vibration.
- Clear documentation for routing/termination of harness and distribution.
Item | Role | Why it matters |
---|---|---|
Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Keeps starter ready while running accessories |
80A isolator relay | Controls charge/isolation | Prevents accessory draw from draining starter |
Model harness | Connects components | Easier installs and service access |
Distribution block & hardware | Clean accessory feeds | Neat fused circuits for lights and audio |
All parts are selected for off-road use and sealed where needed to resist dust and moisture. It integrates with existing charging/accessory circuits for organized, reliable routing.
Installation Made Straightforward
A straightforward install keeps your rig trail-ready without hours in the garage.
Begin with a clean workspace and lay out labeled parts. Mount the reinforced bracket, set the 2nd cell in place, and follow the harness leads to each terminal.
Simple behavior: Key ON/OFF
With the key ON, the 80A isolator links sources; key OFF keeps the starter isolated. This design ensures accessories pull from the auxiliary so the starter remains reserved after long stops.
Solid bracket placement with tidy harness routing
Use factory routing, secure with clips, and sleeve abrasion points. Supplied hardware enables clean grounds and fused feeds—avoid daisy-chains.
Stage | Action | Reason |
---|---|---|
Mount bracket | Bolt into reinforced points | Handles vibration and maintains clamp load |
Place 2nd cell | Seat battery and clamp firmly | Keeps terminals safe and serviceable |
Connect harness | Follow labeled leads and fuse points | Simplifies future upgrades and diagnostics |
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 & Long-Term Care
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.
Charger/Maintainer: your sulfation prevention
Regular top-offs with a quality maintainer help prevent sulfation—the main cause of capacity loss in AGM designs. UTV Stereo advises between-trip top-offs to preserve capacity and extend life.
- The system preserves stock battery health by isolating starting power when the key is off.
- When running, the alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recovery on long rides.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant agm battery construction reduces damage from rough terrain.
Area | Benefit | Action |
---|---|---|
Performance | Steadier voltage under load | Add a secondary AGM to support high-draw gear |
Charging | Lower long-term capacity loss | Use a quality charger/maintainer between rides |
Long-term care | Extended service life | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Pro tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. That reduces surprises and helps preserve next-morning starts on every trip.
