Unfortunately this is the best forum for the question I would think and the second battery will power after market lighting.. and a winch. so, Mod's if there is a better place for my question please feel free to move this thread.
Im going to add a second battery, isolator/relay to my new UTV Kawasaki Teryx. It does operate on a 12v platform. that said, how large of a isolator/relay should I be using ? no clue what he power output of the stator on a UTV is. Cleary wont be as high as a car's alternator. #2 should both batterys be the same size ? I was intending on mounting a oversized marine grade battery under the seat of my machine for all the extra's I will be running. My Polaris Ranger had a "Polaris kit" that ran a second atv sized battery (same size as the starting battery) however when using offroad lights or pretty much anything that isolator was constantly "clicking" moving power to the second battery.
I have a plenty of experience in this subject when installing lights, winches, stereos, etc and of course and running wires.. but making sure the components are compatable is my concern if im not going to buy a pre fab kit and I am going to buy the parts separately.
Help.
