Buy Can Am Dual Battery Kit Online Today
Good to know: adding 18 amp hours to your UTV changes how you use lights and audio on long rides. More capacity means longer accessory runtime while safeguarding the starter.
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.
Expect a fresh, sealed AGM that ships fully charged and hardware sized to match your vehicle. The Honda talon radio 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. It preserves stock starting power yet adds usable amp-hours for winches, lights, and stereo on any trail.
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. The 80 amp isolator links both sources with Key ON and isolates the starting unit with Key OFF so accessory loads draw from the secondary cell instead of the factory one.
Power accessories while protecting your stock battery
Power more accessories like light bars, sound systems, GPS, and in-cab heaters without depleting your starting source. Accessory power remains steady for sensitive gear, cutting dimming and dips during 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.
- Automatic management: Automatic behavior via key position; no manual switch needed.

| Item | Function | 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 | Simplifies install and service access |
| Distribution block & hardware | Fused accessory feeds | Neat fused circuits for lights and audio |
All parts suit off-road duty, with sealing where needed against dust/moisture. It integrates with existing charging/accessory circuits for organized, reliable routing.
Installation Made Straightforward
Simple installation keeps you trail-ready without losing hours in the garage.
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 design ensures accessories pull from the auxiliary so the starter remains reserved after long stops.
Secure bracket placement and clean harness routing
Follow factory paths, use clips, and add abrasion sleeves at pinch points. Use the supplied hardware to make clean grounds and fused distribution points instead of daisy-chaining accessory feeds.
| Stage | What to do | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Bolt into 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 | 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.
Charging, Performance, and Long-Term Maintenance
Strong, steady power keeps your aftermarket electronics UTV setup performing under heavy load. Proper charging and routine care make that reliability repeatable 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 charging with a quality maintainer prevents sulfation, which is the leading cause of capacity loss in agm battery 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.
| Area | Benefit | 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 | 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.
