Good to know: with 18 additional amp hours, long rides feel different for lights and sound. This added capacity powers accessories longer and keeps the starter protected.
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. Its heavy-duty mount resists vibration/impacts for real off-road use.
Expect a fresh, sealed AGM that ships fully charged and hardware sized to match your vehicle. The Can Am outlander 6 inch lift system is maintenance-free in daily use, though a charger or maintainer is recommended to prevent sulfation and extend life.
Shop online to confirm fitment and get fast shipping, minimizing downtime from order to install. This smart upgrade preserves stock starting capacity while adding usable amp-hours for winches, lighting, and stereo power on every trail.
Why a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit Makes Sense for Your Next Ride
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.
Use accessories freely and preserve 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 thanks to preserved stock starting power
Because the isolator protects the stock cell, your engine still cranks strong after a full night of electronics.
- Extra reserve: The auxiliary cell adds amp-hour reserve for high-draw gear on trail or at camp.
- Less wear: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Smart energy management: No manual switching required—system behavior is automatic based on key position.
Can-Am Dual Battery Kit: Features & 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. This automation prevents accessory draw from draining your starting source.
Rugged mounting bracket for vibration and hits
The reinforced mount holds steady across washboard and big landings. Resistance to loosening and fatigue keeps installs tidy and easy to service.

Kit Contents
A solid parts list shows exactly what arrives with your purchase and how each piece protects starting power while feeding accessories.
Pick a full package including the auxiliary AGM, or choose bracket-only if you’ve already got a compatible battery. Both options protect starting power and add capacity for lights/audio/recovery.
Primary components
- An 80 amp battery isolator relay module to manage charge flow between sources.
- Model-specific harness that reduces splices and speeds installation.
- Distribution hardware with fused taps to keep accessory feeds tidy.
- Reinforced bracket to secure components against vibration/impacts.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
| Item | Role | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Adds capacity | 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 |
Parts are off-road ready and sealed as needed for dust/moisture resistance. The complete package integrates with existing charge and accessory circuits so routing stays organized and reliable.
Installation Made Straightforward
A straightforward install keeps your rig trail-ready without hours in the garage.
Start with a clear workspace and the labeled parts laid out before you. Mount the reinforced bracket, set the 2nd cell in place, and follow the harness leads to each terminal.
Key Position Behavior Made Simple
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
Use factory routing, secure with clips, and sleeve abrasion points. Use supplied hardware for clean grounds and fused distribution rather than daisy-chaining.
| Step | 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 |
Basic tools are enough for most mechanically inclined owners. Amp-rated isolator plus proper cabling stabilize power and protect the starter on long rides.
Charging, Performance, and Long-Term Maintenance
Steady power keeps aftermarket UTV electronics performing under heavy loads. Routine care and proper charging make performance repeatable each 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.
Charger/Maintainer: your sulfation prevention
Use a good maintainer to prevent sulfation, the primary cause of capacity loss in AGM batteries. 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.
- When running, the alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recovery on long rides.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant agm battery construction reduces damage from rough terrain.
| Area | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Steadier voltage under load | Use a new secondary agm to support high-draw accessories |
| Charging | Lower long-term capacity loss | Use a quality charger/maintainer between rides |
| Long-term care | Extended service life | Pair sealed cells with routine maintenance charging |
Tip: Keep a compatible maintainer on hand so your batteries stay topped off. It cuts surprises and preserves next-morning starts on every trip.
