After reaching that idyllic spot, the last thing you need
is the worry of flattening your battery overnight. As well
as providing added power when winching and an independent
power source for fridges, camp lights etc, a dual battery
system offers the four wheeler peace of mind in the event
of a main battery failure. |

There are several dual battery controlling options available
including the smart solenoid, solenoid and isolator. The
appropriate device will be determined by factors like vehicle
type and accessories to be run off the second battery, we
also distribute the leading types of battery.
A secure mounting system for your second battery is critical.
ARB battery trays are designed to give you the optimum size
battery mounted in the most suitable location. Where necessary,
ARB trays include sturdy mounting brackets to relocate under
bonnet components that may interfere with the second battery.
All ARB battery trays are manufactured from powder coated
steel and engineered for maximum strength, they're available
on their own, or as part of a complete dual battery kit.
We can also supply sockets, plugs and switches that can
be wired to the second battery to run accessories from.

Manufactured
by US based Sure Power Industries - the world's most respected
supplier of auxiliary battery control devices - the smart
solenoid combines the simple, reliable operation of a solenoid
with sophisticated battery control capabilities. Its primary
role is ensuring the vehicle's main battery is fully charged
before the second battery receives charge. It does this
by monitoring the voltage of the starting battery and will
only energise the solenoid and link the auxiliary battery
when the starting battery reaches 13.2 volts. Conversely,
the control unit disconnects the auxiliary battery when
the starting battery voltage drops below 12.6 volts. This
process is continuous and automatic.
