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.
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. Its heavy-duty mount resists vibration/impacts for real off-road use.
Comes as a sealed AGM, shipped fully charged and hardware sized to match your vehicle. The renegade Can Am outlander 1000 xmr lifted setup needs no daily maintenance, and a quality maintainer is advised to limit sulfation and extend service life.
Order online for clear fitment data and quick delivery, reducing time from purchase 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. 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
Drive light bars, audio, GPS, and heaters without draining the starter. Accessory power remains steady for sensitive gear, cutting dimming and dips during spikes.
Confident starts thanks to preserved stock starting power
The isolator-driven system automatically prioritizes preserving stock battery so your machine cranks strong after a long night with electronics running.
- Extra reserve: 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.
- 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.
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.
Heavy-duty mounting bracket built for vibration and impacts
Reinforced brackets keep components anchored over washboard and landings. Resistance to loosening and fatigue keeps installs tidy and easy to service.
UTV Stereo Platinum Series AGM: sealed design, maintenance-free, durable

Adds extra amp hours vs stock for lights, audio, and accessories
- About +18 amp-hours vs stock for longer light/audio runtime.
- Steadier loaded voltage preserves audio clarity and lamp brightness at idle.
- Factory-friendly integration keeps installs neat and durable.
Fitment & Options for Can-Am Models
Choose the right fit for your UTV with model-specific packages that match factory mounting points and wiring paths.
Maverick X3 owners can opt for a full second-battery kit with wiring/hardware for a quick upgrade. Already own an AGM? UTV Stereo’s mount-only option gives a clean bracket for a tidy install.
Maverick X3 Options: complete kit or bracket-only
Choose the full kit for speed or go bracket-only if you’re reusing a battery. Both choices target a factory look and secure fit.
Defender: model-fit second battery kit for stock bay
Built to fit the stock bay, the Defender kit preserves service access. That keeps factory clearances intact while adding reliable second battery capacity.
Bracket-only and wire kit options if you already own an AGM battery
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

What’s Included in the Kit
Here’s what you receive and how it protects the starter yet feeds accessories.
Pick a full package including the auxiliary AGM, or choose bracket-only if you already own a compatible cell. Both paths keep the starter reserved and give you usable extra capacity for lights, audio, and recovery gear.
Main components
- 80 amp battery isolator relay to manage charging/isolation.
- Model-specific harness that reduces splices and speeds installation.
- Power distribution hardware with fused taps to keep accessory feeds tidy.
- A reinforced bracket that secures the assembly against vibration and impacts.
- Clear documentation to route the harness and terminate distribution points correctly.
| Item | Function | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 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 | Wiring link | Simplifies install 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.
Easy, Straightforward Install
Simple installation keeps you trail-ready without losing hours in the garage.
Prep a clear workspace and lay out the 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 mounting + clean 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 | 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 | Connect labeled leads/fuse points | Makes upgrades and diagnostics easier |
Most mechanically inclined owners finish this installation with basic tools. The amp-rated isolator and proper cables keep power delivery steady and protect starting batteries during long rides.
Performance, Charging, 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.
Expect steadier voltage with better performance for amps, winches, and high-output lights. A dedicated secondary agm reduces dips during spikes so sound stays clean and lamps stay bright.
Use a charger/maintainer to prevent sulfation
Regular top-offs with a quality maintainer help prevent sulfation—the main cause of capacity loss in AGM designs. UTV Stereo advises between-trip top-offs to preserve capacity and extend life.
- Stock battery health is preserved by isolating starter power Key OFF.
- Running engine alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recharge on long rides.
- Sealed, vibration-resistant agm battery construction reduces damage from rough terrain.
| Area | Gain | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Steadier voltage under load | Add a secondary AGM to support high-draw gear |
| Charging | Lower long-term capacity loss | Use a quality charger/maintainer between rides |
| 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.
