Surprising fact: adding 18 amp hours to your UTV changes how you use lights and audio on long rides. That extra capacity lets accessories run longer while your starter stays protected.
Engineered with an 80 amp isolator, it combines sources when the key is on and protects the starter when the key is off, feeding accessories from the auxiliary cell. The rugged mount fights vibration and shock for authentic off-road duty.
Comes as a sealed AGM, shipped fully charged with hardware sized for your specific vehicle. The defender cover kit runs maintenance-free day to day, 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. It preserves stock starting power yet adds usable amp-hours for winches, lights, and stereo on any trail.
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. 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
Run light bars, audio, GPS, and cabin heat while keeping the starter untouched. You get steadier voltage to sensitive electronics, reducing dim and drop during load spikes.
Confident cranks with stock starting kept intact
An isolator-managed system preserves the stock battery so cranking stays strong after long accessory use.
- Extra reserve: A second battery gives extra amp hours for high-draw gear at camp or on long rides.
- Less wear: Offloading accessories reduces stress on the starting circuit and components.
- Automatic management: No manual switches—key position controls behavior automatically.
Key Features & Benefits of the Can-Am Dual Battery Kit
Practical advantages for real trails and day-to-day reliability. It combines automatic management, rugged mounting, and sealed cells so electronics run without risking the starter.
The 80 amp battery isolator links both power sources when the key is on and isolates the starter cell when the key is off. This automation prevents accessory draw from draining your starting source.
Heavy-duty bracket engineered for shock and vibration
Reinforced brackets keep components anchored over washboard and landings. It resists loosening and fatigue so the install stays tidy and serviceable.

| Component | Role | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Starter remains ready during accessory use |
| 80A isolator relay | Manages charge and isolation | Stops accessory drain on starter |
| Model harness | Connects components | Simplifies install and service access |
| Distribution block & hardware | Clean accessory feeds | Tidy fused circuits for lights/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
Install is straightforward so your rig stays trail-ready with minimal downtime.
Begin with a clean workspace and lay out labeled parts. 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.
Solid bracket placement with tidy harness routing
Follow factory paths, use clips, and add abrasion sleeves at pinch points. Supplied hardware enables clean grounds and fused feeds—avoid daisy-chains.
| Step | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Secure to reinforced points | Handles vibration and maintains clamp load |
| Place 2nd cell | Seat and fasten with clamp | Keeps terminals safe and serviceable |

Basic tools are enough for most mechanically inclined owners. The amp-rated isolator and proper cables keep power delivery steady and protect starting batteries during long rides.
Charging, Performance, and Long-Term Maintenance
Steady power keeps aftermarket UTV electronics performing under heavy loads. Proper charging and routine care make that reliability repeatable season after season.
Expect steadier voltage with better performance for amps, winches, and high-output lights. The auxiliary AGM trims voltage dips on spikes, keeping sound clean and lights bright.
Prevent sulfation with a charger/maintainer
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.
- Stock battery health is preserved by isolating starter power Key OFF.
- While running, the alternator replenishes reserves so long rides restore charge efficiently.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant AGM design curbs damage over rough terrain.
| Area | Gain | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Stable voltage under load | Add a secondary AGM to support high-draw gear |
| Charging | Less capacity loss over time | Use a quality charger/maintainer between rides |
| Long-term care | Longer service life | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. It cuts surprises and preserves next-morning starts on every trip.
