One down side of the meters is they take up a lot of dash real estate. Voltage Meters/Relay: One REALLY nice feature of the kit is the inclusion of two voltage meters one for each battery. My bigger point with the cable discussion is to ensure that the provided cables will be long enough for your needs so you don't end up tossing them and having to go to the expense for buying/making longer ones. I doubt if Polaris would care one way or the other-just nice to know info! Of course, I could be wrong and maybe True Am is using some other type of automotive cable that does meet the SAE specs with the cross linked insulation rather than the typical welding cable that uses the less tough (and less heat and chemical resistant) PVC insulation. If you replace the battery cables with in your truck with welding cable, it would void your warranty. But it should be noted that welding wire does not meet the SAE J-1128 (under the hood, high temp wiring) standard. This makes me suspicious that True Am is now using welding cable rather than the automotive SXL or SGX standard battery cables. They are supposed to more flexible and easier to work with.
The red cables go from the isolator to each of the two battery's poitive posts-will the 12" and 18" cables work for where you mount the isolator and the batteries? I have also read that True Am has improved the cables form earlier kits. Will the 3 included cables be long enough? The black cable will connect neg on the primary battery to the neg on 2nd battery.
TRUE BATTERY ISOLATOR INSTALL
First of all, I'm sure if you buy this kit and install it according to the manufactures instructions, it will work great! I'm really excited about the UTV-SBI-15 (the actual isolator less the cables, meters, and relay) the design makes sense, especially the fact (mfgr claim) that is waterproof and shock proof, most other isolators have to be mounted high to keep water out of them.Ĭables: You should go ahead and choose the battery that will be your new aux (2nd) battery and determine where and how you will mount it.
