Quick fact: with 18 additional amp hours, long rides feel different for lights and sound. This added capacity powers accessories longer and keeps the starter protected.
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 with hardware sized for your specific vehicle. The Can Am x3 metal doors setup needs no daily maintenance, 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.
Why Choose a Can-Am Dual Battery Kit for Your Next Adventure
For long nights of lights and music, a dedicated auxiliary source keeps the starter ready when you need it. With an 80A isolator, Key ON combines sources; Key OFF isolates the starter so accessories draw from the auxiliary battery.
Power accessories while protecting your stock battery
Drive light bars, audio, GPS, and heaters without draining the starter. The accessory supply supplies steady voltage for sensitive electronics, reducing dimming and voltage dips when loads spike.
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.
- Extra reserve: A second battery gives extra amp hours for high-draw gear at camp or on long rides.
- Less wear: Accessory offload eases stress on starter circuits and components.
- Automatic management: No manual switches—key position controls behavior automatically.
Can Am dual battery kit Features and Benefits
This section highlights the practical advantages of the upgrade for trail use and everyday reliability. Automatic control plus a rugged mount and sealed cells keep electronics powered while protecting the starter.
With an 80 amp isolator, sources link Key ON and the starter is isolated Key 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. Resistance to loosening and fatigue keeps installs tidy and easy to service.
UTV Stereo Platinum AGM: sealed, low-maintenance, long-life
Platinum Series AGM comes fresh and pre-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.
- Cleaner voltage under load helps preserve sound quality and lamp brightness at idle.
- Factory-friendly integration keeps installs neat and durable.
Model Fitment and Options for Can-Am Owners
Choose the right fit for your UTV with model-specific packages that match factory mounting points and wiring paths.

Alternatives: DS18 wire/bracket-only and AKJ Offroad solutions
- AKJ Offroad offers another full kit option.
- DS18 has wire/bracket-only options and promotes free shipping in the U.S..
- Each product is engineered around model geometry so the install looks factory and stays secure on rough trails.
Select a complete kit for convenience or modular parts to integrate existing gear. Clear fitment notes reduce wrong orders and help each customer get the right parts the first time.
Kit Contents
A clear parts list explains what’s included and how each piece protects the starter 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
- An 80 amp battery isolator relay module to manage charge flow between sources.
- Harness, model-specific, to simplify wiring and speed install.
- Distribution hardware with fused connection 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 | Function | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Secondary AGM cell | Adds capacity | Starter remains ready during accessory use |
| 80A isolator relay | Manages charge and isolation | Stops accessory drain on starter |
| Model harness | Connects components | 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.
Straightforward Installation
A straightforward install keeps your rig trail-ready without 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
Key ON links sources via 80A isolator; key OFF isolates the starter. 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. Use supplied hardware for clean grounds and fused distribution rather than daisy-chaining.
| Step | Action | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Mount bracket | Secure to reinforced points | Maintains clamp load under vibration |
| Place 2nd cell | Seat battery and clamp firmly | 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. Amp-rated isolator plus proper cabling stabilize power and protect the starter on long rides.
Performance, Charging, and Long-Term Maintenance
Strong, steady power keeps your aftermarket electronics UTV setup performing under heavy 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.
Use a charger/maintainer to prevent sulfation
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.
- Stock battery health is preserved by isolating starter power Key OFF.
- Running engine alternator replenishes reserves for efficient recharge on long rides.
- Vibration-resistant sealed AGM construction reduces rough-terrain damage.
| Area | Benefit | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 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: Keep a suitable maintainer handy to stay topped up. This reduces surprises and preserves morning starts trip after trip.
