P1000 True Battery Isolator Question

[LapZ]

So I have the True battery isolator kit and am installing it, they sent wiring diagram for the batteries and the isolator but not how to wire in the dual voltmeters. I've been on the interweb and haven't had much luck and have also surfed this forum. I get they just essentially hook up to the battery and read the volts but don't you have to break the circuit so they are not on all the time? They sent a relay but cant figure out how to use it to turn on and off both voltmeters to read each battery separately. Any help or drawing would be appreciated.

I think I have the diagram, I'll look this afternoon after I get home and post it if I do

I spent the day doing the same thing. Tomorrow, have to clamp the new battery in some how.

I ended up running a solenoid between my second battery and bussman box.. this allows me to shut down all accessory power via a master switch on the switch panel.

I did what JTW did, cut slits and ran a strap around the underside

I was looking at doing the same thing with a solenoid. Do you know if u can energize the solenoid of the aux off the key?

What are u running for your air intake? I notice that freed up some room where you mounted what looks to maybe be a turn signal kit? I'm about out of room and looking for space to mount my turn signal kit

Yes you can.. I just chose against it.. if I were to have an issue the machine could still function even if my accessories were on the fritz!

That's my bussman box (fuse/relay box)..


I just went thru the hood for the intake. The hood runs about $45. So if you do screw up.. no worries.

I put a lot of time into figuring out where I would locate all my stuff.. there was a lot of figuring and fitting of pieces to get it all to work neatly.

Little different angle..

Probably a better idea, so does the main battery power the master switch for the aux battery? I unfortunately ordered and started to install the Honda OEM switch panel so I have to use that instead of the Bussman fuse panel. I see now that u have a snorkel set up, I have no room for an under the hood snorkel system like ive seen some guys do, I'll have to go up for sure!

I had a bit of a mess from adding things until I decided it was time for a cleanup. Believe it or not, there is a bank of relays, buss bar, solenoid, winch solenoid,fuses and a snorkel all in there.

The stock battery accessory wire powers the light for the aux battery switch and the voltmeter for the stock battery.. the second battery supply's everything else including the rest of my switch lights.

I was going to go with an underhood snorkel until I began figuring on how much room I would lose.. that's when I decided to go up with it

Did about the same, but instead of slits, I used two eye bolts and a strap of Velcro.
