Features to know about

How Do You Add a Second Starting Battery Without Isolation?

This kit adds a second 12V battery to your outboard setup by wiring both batteries in parallel, allowing them to work together as one shared 12V system. Starting loads and onboard electronics draw from the combined capacity, and the system recharges as a single battery bank from the alternator or charger. Because the batteries remain connected at all times, this setup increases available reserve without introducing isolation, switching, or battery management logic. It's a straightforward solution for boats running larger electronics loads where additional starting and accessory capacity is needed.

Video Transcript for Review of Connect-Ease Battery Connectors - Parallel Battery Connection Kit - CE85RR

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer. Today we're gonna take a look at the Connect Ease Outboard Motor Dual Parallel Battery Connection Kit, and it is lithium compatible. Now this kit here is gonna keep your electronics powered all day using this easy plug and play battery connection system for your boat. It links an extra battery to your main setup for longer runtime, protects your starting battery, and it does work with any batteries as we mentioned, including lithium. It will include everything I have laid out here on the table. It includes this parallel accessory connection, the two battery side connectors, and right here, the two junction blocks, positive and negative.

And just to show you, I'm gonna pop up an insert to give you an idea. There's the two batteries and you can see how the cables connect. Basically you're gonna connect these connectors to one for each battery, and then you're going to see these connectors will plug right into there, and then you'll take your junction blocks and connect it to these. And then this is your connector that'll plug into whatever application you're using it for, like a bilge pump, electronics, live wells, anything like that. So, very simple connection.

Now, the system does connect to another battery to your house or starting battery. Helps increase fishing time and powers all your electronics all day. You won't have to worry about draining your starting battery. This will create more power for running your electronics, your live wells, your bilge pumps, power poles, and more starting batteries for large outboards. The batteries draw power from both batteries and will charge together off an alternator or charger at the same time.

As we mentioned, you can see the connectors. Very simple plug and play connection. Very easy, they just click together so it makes the connect and disconnect very easy. Now we do also sell extra connectors separately on our website, which can be added to this kit to connect your console and extra electronics if needed. These parts are made in the USA.

Voltage, 12 volts DC, AMP rating of 60 to 240 amps. The wire gauge on the connector right here, these two wires are gonna be an eight gauge size, but all the other ones all here for the batteries are gonna be a six gauge size. Now if you do also have any other additional questions regarding this part or any other item we carry, please feel free to reach out to us so that we can help get all of your questions answered for you. But that is gonna do it for the look at this Connect Ease Outdoor Motor Dual Parallel Battery Connection Kit.
