Wow! Hats off, you guys put together a real banger here. Next level DI[F]Y presentation. 0:17 ... No thermal runaway? Klaus Schwab would not approve. Thank you. P.S. Looking forward to the Utalooza 1,000Ah / 2nd Alternator / 200A DC-DC Charger / 1,000W Solar / 5,000W Inverter, dual battery upgrade 0:06 😁
Sick of this already. Made the mistake of buying and Itech system. Conflicting instructions and not enough parts. Doing my head in. Thanks for the video. One of the better ones. Not full of unnecessary garbage and marketing.
It's a trigger wire which you connect to an igntion source. If you have a smart alternator vehicle, you MUST connect it to that. If you have an older vehicle without a smart alternator, connecting that is optional. If you're not sure, go ahead and connect it to an ignition source that's your safest bet.
This setup will still run items you power off the new SECOND battery, and if you hook up the blue ignition trigger wire, it won't draw power from your car main battery once you stop the car.
Using a Heavy-Duty True battery isolator provides several benefits for truck with auxiliary battery Reliable Battery Management: Automatically ensures the starting battery is charged first, then charges the auxiliary battery, preventing the main battery from draining and ensuring reliable engine starts (True Battery Isolator). No Voltage Drop: Unlike traditional diode isolators, True isolators have no voltage drop, maintaining optimal charging efficiency (True Battery Isolator). Dual Sensing Technology: Monitors the voltage of both batteries and engages charging for both if either battery is receiving a charge, which is particularly useful when using external chargers (True Battery Isolator). Durable and Compact Design: Built to withstand harsh conditions with features like waterproofing, heat resistance, and anti-vibration casing, ensuring longevity and reliability in various environments (True Battery Isolator) (True Battery Isolator). Easy Installation: Simple three-wire installation without the need to bypass existing alternator wiring, making it user-friendly even for novice installers (True Battery Isolator). Cost-Effective Solution: Provides a budget-friendly way to manage dual battery setups effectively, offering long-term savings by extending battery life and preventing failures (True Battery Isolator). Safety Features: Includes ignition protection and operates within a wide temperature range, enhancing the safety of your vehicle’s electrical system (True Battery Isolator). Overall, the True dual battery isolator enhances the reliability, efficiency, and longevity of a dual battery system in various applications, from trucks to boats and RVs.

The alternator is a constant voltage charger. Not suitable for deep cycle battery charging. especially lithium-iron batteries. You need a special charger called "DC to DC charger". This charger controls the amount of current that goes to the 2nd battery in stages. This gives the 2nd battery longer usable life.
The speakers accent is very distracting and he talks too fast and I can tell he isn't the one who wired in the battery system. He's just reading it. Not a terrible video though. I can tell you put effort in here. Thanks anyway.
This was about as simple as it goes! Good on ya for skipping all the BS mate!
Glad you liked it!
Omg!!!! Thank you for putting this together it is a ton of work to record all of these
Wow!

better phone the expert
A lithium battery for a jump start battery?
Where did that 2mm blue wire end up connecting to on the charger? I just struggled following along on that part

I think i could do most of that. Around step 5, i think I'd ask an auto electrician to take over.
why are the australian videos so different than the american videos
Does it still run when the car is off?
This setup will still run items you power off the new SECOND battery, and if you hook up the blue ignition trigger wire, it won't draw power from your car main battery once you stop the car.
Good video
thanks!
1:20 nope I give up already 😅
Maybe one day?

Why would you need a battery charger? The car already has an alternator which can charge both batteries while the car is running.
The alternator is a constant voltage charger. Not suitable for deep cycle battery charging. especially lithium-iron batteries. You need a special charger called "DC to DC charger". This charger controls the amount of current that goes to the 2nd battery in stages. This gives the 2nd battery longer usable life.
Don't know about anybody else, but I found this video very difficult to follow. Too fast talking, too much detail in a short time.
We've got an article on our website if you'd prefer to read through it
Did you know there’s a pause button and a rewind/fast forward button as well? 😊✌🏽
You can play the video in slow motion too!
Or you could buy a Bluetti 😐
And spend like 3x the money? Yeah no.
What hell noooo I quit
The speakers accent is very distracting and he talks too fast and I can tell he isn't the one who wired in the battery system.
He's just reading it.
Not a terrible video though.
I can tell you put effort in here.
