Buy Can Am Dual Battery Kit On the Web Today
Quick fact: with 18 additional amp hours, long rides feel different for lights and sound. More capacity means longer accessory runtime while safeguarding the starter.
This purpose-built upgrade uses an 80 amp isolator so, with the key on, both sources share power, and with the key off, the starting unit is safe while accessories draw from the second battery. A heavy-duty mount resists vibration and impacts for true off-road service.
Comes as a sealed AGM, shipped fully charged plus vehicle-matched hardware. The Motoslayer tires system is maintenance-free in daily use, and a quality maintainer is advised to limit sulfation and extend service life.
Shop online to confirm fitment and get fast shipping, minimizing downtime from order to install. You keep stock starting capacity and gain usable amp-hours for winch, lights, and audio everywhere you ride.
Top Reasons to Run a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit on Your Next Trip
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.
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
Because the isolator protects the stock cell, your engine still cranks strong after a full night of electronics.
- Reserve capacity: The auxiliary cell adds amp-hour reserve for high-draw gear on trail or at camp.
- Less wear: Moving accessory load off the starter lowers wear on circuits/components.
- Smart energy management: No manual switching required—system behavior is automatic based on key position.
Can Am dual battery kit Features and 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.
The 80 amp battery isolator links both power sources when the key is on and isolates the starter cell when the key is off. That automation stops accessories from draining the starter.
Rugged mounting bracket for vibration and hits
A reinforced bracket anchors components through washboard trails and hard landings. It resists loosening/fatigue so your install stays neat and serviceable.

- DS18 lists bracket/wire-only packages with free U.S. shipping advertised.
- Engineered to model geometry for factory-style, trail-secure installs.
Choose the path that matches your build: full kit for convenience, or modular parts to integrate gear you already own. Fitment notes minimize mistakes and help you order correctly the first time.
What’s Included in the Kit
A solid parts list shows exactly what arrives with your purchase and how each piece protects starting power while feeding accessories.
Choose a full package with a secondary agm battery or select the bracket-only route when you already have a compatible cell. Either way preserves the starter and adds usable capacity for lights, audio, and recovery tools.
Primary components
- 80 amp battery isolator relay to manage charging/isolation.
- Harness, model-specific, to simplify wiring and speed install.
- 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.
| Component | Role | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Keeps starter ready while running accessories |
| 80A isolator relay | Manages charge and isolation | Prevents accessory draw from draining starter |
| Model harness | Wiring link | 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. The complete package integrates with existing charge and accessory circuits so routing stays organized and reliable.
Easy, Straightforward Install
Simple installation keeps you trail-ready without losing hours in the garage.
Begin with a clean workspace and lay out labeled parts. Install the bracket, seat the second battery, then connect the labeled harness leads.
Simple behavior: Key ON/OFF
With the key ON, the 80A isolator links sources; key OFF keeps the starter isolated. The design routes accessory load to the aux battery, preserving the starter after extended stops.
Secure bracket placement and clean 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 | Action | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Secure to reinforced points | Handles vibration and maintains clamp load |
| 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.
Charging, Performance, and Long-Term Maintenance
Strong, steady power keeps your aftermarket electronics UTV setup performing under heavy load. With proper charging and routine care, reliability repeats season after season.
Expect steadier voltage and improved performance for audio amps, winches, and high-output lights. A dedicated secondary agm reduces dips during spikes so sound stays clean and lamps stay bright.
Charger/Maintainer: your sulfation prevention
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.
- Key OFF isolation preserves stock battery health.
- While running, the alternator replenishes reserves so long rides restore charge efficiently.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant agm battery construction reduces damage from rough terrain.
| Aspect | Gain | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Stable 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 | Longer service life | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. This reduces surprises and preserves morning starts trip after trip.
