Good to know: an extra 18 amp hours on a UTV can transform long-ride lighting and audio use. 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. The rugged mount fights vibration and shock for authentic off-road duty.
Arrives fresh, sealed AGM and fully charged and hardware sized to match your vehicle. The Honda talon speakers system is maintenance-free in daily use, but using a charger/maintainer helps prevent sulfation and lengthen life.
Shop online for clear fitment and fast delivery so a customer can move from order to install with minimal downtime. It preserves stock starting power yet adds usable amp-hours for winches, lights, and stereo on any trail.
Why a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit Makes Sense for Your Next Ride
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
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 starts with stock battery starting preserved
The isolator-driven system automatically prioritizes preserving stock battery so your machine cranks strong after a long night with electronics running.
- Reserve capacity: The auxiliary cell adds amp-hour reserve for high-draw gear on trail or at camp.
- Reduced strain: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Automatic management: Automatic behavior via key position; no manual switch needed.
Can-Am Dual Battery Kit: Features & Benefits
This section highlights the practical advantages of the upgrade for trail use and everyday reliability. The design pairs automatic energy management with a rugged mount and sealed cells to keep electronics running 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. Automation prevents accessory drain on the starting battery.
Rugged mounting bracket for vibration and hits
A reinforced bracket anchors components through washboard trails and hard landings. It resists loosening and fatigue so the install stays tidy and serviceable.
UTV Stereo Platinum AGM: sealed, low-maintenance, long-life
UTV Stereo’s Platinum AGM ships fresh and fully charged. Sealed AGM means spill resistance, vibration toughness, and no routine maintenance.
Extra capacity over stock for lighting, audio, and gear
- Approximately 18 extra amp-hours compared to stock for longer accessory use.
- Steadier loaded voltage preserves audio clarity and lamp brightness at idle.
- The complete battery kit integrates with the factory system for a neat, durable install.
Can-Am Owners: Model Fitment and Options

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 if you’ve already got a compatible battery. 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.
- Model-specific harness that reduces splices and speeds installation.
- Power distribution hardware with fused connection points for clean accessory feeds.
- Bracket, reinforced, to resist shock and vibration.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
| Item | Role | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 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 | Connects components | Simplifies install and service access |
| Distribution block & hardware | Fused accessory feeds | Neat fused circuits for lights and audio |
Parts are off-road ready and sealed as needed for dust/moisture resistance. Integration with existing charge/accessory circuits keeps routing tidy 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. Mount the bracket, place the second cell, and route the harness to labeled terminals.
Key Position Behavior Made Simple
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.
Solid bracket placement with tidy harness routing
Route the harness along factory paths, secure it with clips, and add abrasion protection at pinch points. Use supplied hardware for clean grounds and fused distribution rather than daisy-chaining.
| Stage | What to do | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Secure to reinforced points | Maintains clamp load under vibration |
| Place 2nd cell | Seat battery and clamp firmly | Keeps terminals safe and serviceable |
| Connect harness | Follow labeled leads and fuse points | Makes upgrades and diagnostics easier |
Most DIYers can complete the install with basic tools. Amp-rated isolator plus proper cabling stabilize power and protect the starter on long rides.
Performance, Charging, and Long-Term Maintenance
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.
Prevent sulfation with a charger/maintainer
Use a good maintainer to prevent sulfation, the primary cause of capacity loss in AGM batteries. UTV Stereo recommends topping between trips to preserve capacity and extend life.
- 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.
| Aspect | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Steadier voltage under load | Use a new secondary agm to support high-draw accessories |
| Charging | Less capacity loss over time | Use a quality charger/maintainer between rides |
| Long-term care | Extended service life | Do routine maintenance charging on sealed cells |
Tip: Keep a compatible maintainer on hand so your batteries stay topped off. It cuts surprises and preserves next-morning starts on every trip.
