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.
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. 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 ITP Blackwater evolution setup needs no daily maintenance, and a quality maintainer is advised to limit sulfation and extend service life.
Shop online for clear fitment and fast delivery so a customer can move from order to install with minimal downtime. 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
When your rig needs long nights of lights and music, a dedicated secondary power source keeps the starter ready for the moment that matters. 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.
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 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: Gain additional amp-hours for big-draw accessories during long rides.
- Reduced strain: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Smart energy management: Automatic behavior via key position; no manual switch needed.
Can-Am Dual Battery Kit: Features & Benefits
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.
An 80A isolator ties sources Key ON and isolates the starter cell Key OFF. Automation prevents accessory drain on the starting battery.
Rugged mounting bracket for vibration and hits
The reinforced mount holds steady across washboard and big landings. It resists loosening and fatigue so the install stays tidy and serviceable.

Built to fit the stock bay, the Defender kit preserves service access. That keeps factory clearances intact while adding reliable second battery capacity.
Already have an AGM? Choose bracket-only or wiring-only kits
Save by using a wire-and-mount package if you already have a battery. This solution delivers professional routing and solid mounting without extra parts.
Alternatives: DS18 wire/bracket-only and AKJ Offroad solutions
- Check AKJ Offroad for a complete package alternative.
- DS18 lists bracket/wire-only packages with free U.S. shipping advertised.
- Each product is engineered around model geometry so the install looks factory and stays secure on rough trails.
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.
In the Box: What You Get
A solid parts list shows exactly what arrives with your purchase and how each piece protects starting power while feeding accessories.
Opt for a complete package with the secondary AGM or go bracket-only when you already have a compatible cell. Either way preserves the starter and adds usable capacity for lights, audio, and recovery tools.
Primary components
- Battery isolator relay (80A) for charge management between sources.
- Harness, model-specific, to simplify wiring and speed install.
- Distribution hardware featuring fused points for clean accessory feeds.
- A reinforced bracket that secures the assembly against vibration and impacts.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
| Component | Role | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Provides extra amp hours | Keeps starter ready while running accessories |
| 80A isolator relay | Controls charge/isolation | Stops accessory drain on starter |
| Model harness | Wiring link | Easier installs and service access |
| Distribution block & hardware | Clean accessory feeds | Neat fused circuits for lights and audio |
All parts suit off-road duty, with sealing where needed against dust/moisture. Integration with existing charge/accessory circuits keeps routing tidy and reliable.
Straightforward Installation
Install is straightforward so your rig stays trail-ready with minimal downtime.
Begin with a clean workspace and lay out labeled parts. Install the bracket, seat the second battery, then connect the labeled harness leads.
Simple Key ON/Key OFF behavior
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.
Secure bracket placement and clean harness routing
Route the harness along factory paths, secure it with clips, and add abrasion protection at pinch points. Supplied hardware enables clean grounds and fused feeds—avoid daisy-chains.
| Stage | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 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
Steady power keeps aftermarket UTV electronics performing under heavy loads. With proper charging and routine care, reliability repeats season after 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 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 design curbs damage over rough terrain.
| Area | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Stable 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 | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Pro tip: Have a compatible maintainer ready to keep batteries topped. This reduces surprises and preserves morning starts trip after trip.
