How does a smart battery isolator differentiate between alternator charging voltage and the actual voltage level of the batteries it’s monitoring? A smart battery isolator doesn’t just blindly pass along the alternator’s 14V output—it actually monitors voltage thresholds to decide when to connect or disconnect batteries. Here’s how it works: Voltage-Sensitive Logic Alternator Output (~14V): When […]

Tiago RVs benefit from a dual battery setup with an isolator system to power onboard accessories without draining the starter battery—ensuring reliable engine starts and uninterrupted off-grid living. Dual battery systems are a game-changer for RVs like the Tiago, especially for off-grid travel, comfort, and reliability. Why Dual Batteries Matter in RVs Like Tiago? A […]

It’s one that gets overlooked way too often. Even though Smart Battery Isolators come with built-in surge protection and intelligent switching, you still need a fuse in your system. Why a Fuse Is Absolutely Necessary 1. Protection Against Short Circuits Smart isolators don’t prevent short circuits. If a wire gets damaged or pinched, a fuse […]

Technically yes, but not as a simple plug-and-play swap. A Smart Battery Isolator can be used with Suzuki outboard engines, but it’s not plug-and-play, and you must ensure compatibility with the engine’s charging system, especially on newer models. A thorough explanation The Suzuki Battery Isolator Lead Set is a factory-designed wire that seamlessly connects to the […]

Can a smart battery isolator be positioned closer to the auxiliary (leisure) battery at the other end of the system, or does it have to be placed close to the starter battery? It’s not always necessary to place a smart battery isolator directly next to the primary (starter) battery; the location will depend on the […]
