Smart Features That Set True® Battery Isolator Apart
- Performance-Driven — Supports demanding alternator outputs up to 150 Amps with ease
- Automatic Dual Voltage Sensing Relay It intelligently detects when your main battery reaches a charging threshold, then connects the auxiliary battery. No switches, no guesswork—just precision automation.
- No Voltage Drop Unlike older diode-based isolators (which can lose 0.6+ volts), True® uses solid-state technology that maintains full voltage to both batteries—ensuring faster charging and better performance.
- No Alternator Rewiring Required — Installs directly at the battery with a simple 3-wire setup, meaning it’s compatible with modern ECUs and won’t interfere with factory wiring. That’s a win for newer vehicles and warranty protection.
- LED Status Indicator for At-A-Glance Monitoring — Quickly shows when batteries are linked or isolated.
- Built-in Ignition Surge Protection — Protects sensitive electronics from voltage spikes—UL1107/UL1500 certified for marine and automotive use.
- Optional Dual Battery Voltage Meter — Enhances battery monitoring accuracy.

The most difficult part of the whole procedure was locating a hold down of the suitable size for the second battery!

It works perfectly and is well-made. I keep two 6v batteries charged in the utility bed of my truck.

This True dual battery kit worked great. My expectation is met right after installation.
I need this for a Silverado led lights that badly needed an auxiliary battery.

Easy to install, instructions give the wrong size for the pilot holes for the mounting screws, but i understand this kit is trying to fit with all different Silverado models. Only installed it today so let’s see if it’s works and lasts as long as I need it to.

Amazed the way how it works. the first day it rescued me from being late to work. I regulary forgot to turn off my inverter the night I hooked it up. the next morning I was walking to my truck and heard a low beeeeping sound and knew I had forgot to turn it off. I WAS READY TO CALL THE OFFICE BUT DECIDED TO TRY AND CRANK IT UP. I was so surprised and HAPPY.

Easy install for novice electronics tinkerer
My only dislike is that the numbers on the dual volt meter are upside down compared to the label like the painted on labels were done incorrectly.

With the exception of the wire loom, this package provided everything I needed to install a second deep cycle AGM battery in my pickup. The smart batter isolator, which I wasn’t familiar with, seems to be functioning properly.
Directions on the package are accurate.

Very easy installation couldn’t have ask for easier direction

Worked fantastic to add second battery to my 97 chevy suburban k1500
Wired it up on my 97 chevy suburban k1500 to add a second battery. Went well. Added appropriate length cables to mount this against the firewall. Will be adding light bars etc.

The truck dual battery kit is well put together with great instructions. You do need a heavy duty crimping tool for the two eyelet lugs. Did the testing that instructions said to do and everything appears to be working as it should. We’ll see how it goes when I plow snow next time. Should take a significant load off my main starting battery and electrical system. 2012 Chevy Silverado 5.3L 1500

Comes with everything you need to do the job. Hardest part is figuring out best way to wire it.

I was seeking for a high-quality relay to isolate an auxiliary battery in my Chevy pickup. My original equipment manufacturer relay failed, but it was 30 years old. The auxiliary battery serves as one of two batteries for my truck camper, the other being in the engine compartment. I tested three different isolation relays, two of which appeared to be enough. Because it drew the least amount of current when engaged, the TrueAm battery isolator was the best.

Initially, we are discussing how to wire automobiles with high-amperage batteries. It’s really simple to install if you’re already at ease with that. Each and every part was present. The instructions worked as intended. Functions flawlessly. I’ve had to use it several times because my starting battery died. It’s amazing that I put off adding for so long. It is lacking in warranty documentation.
Vincent Hizon –
If you’re utilizing two separate batteries, this is the device you should have. The voltage separation between the power source and charging phases is excellent. Installing it is simple. It is well-made and quite robust. Strongly advised.
James Caleb –
I would strongly advise you to conduct thorough research before installing a secondary battery setup in your truck, but other than that, this kit included almost everything I needed, which I had to buy separately. Everything else functioned flawlessly, and it was well worth the money. I would definitely buy it again.

My Silverado needs a lot of power for my profession. My primary start battery has repeatedly dropped too low to turn on. This smart dual battery isolator fixes the issue. Getting a isolator kit with an additional 6′ or so of power cable would be the only thing I would change.
