BAYWATT 12V 200A Dual Battery Isolator Relay (also called a split charge relay) is a cost-effective way to manage two batteries on board. It protects the starter battery, charges the house battery when the engine is running, and adds simple, reliable control to your 12V system.
Simple, smart & reliable power management
Option | How it operates | Best for |
---|---|---|
Dual Battery Isolator Relay | Simple on/off relay controlled by a low-voltage signal. | Cost-effective, straightforward installs, manual control logic. |
Smart Isolator (VSR) | Automatically senses voltage and connects the house battery when the start battery is charged. | Hands-off operation, optimal charge sharing, mixed-use setups. |
Recommendation: For simplicity and price, choose this 12V 200A relay. For automatic voltage-sensing control, see the VSR Ref BI12140.
