Battery Isolator

Recommended Posts

G'day all

Thinking about fitting a Redarc battery isolator to my LC200 Sahara.

My question, does the vehicle already have a factory fitted isolator and if not, where would one locate an after market unit? Not a lot of room under there.

I've had a bit of a look and there doesn't appear to be one

Regards

I have the Redarc 1220 dc to dc charger/isolator and the unit is located in the cabin, passenger side footwell - LHS. It's a big footwell so doesn't get in the way and of course isn't effected by heat. Another popular choice is the Redarc 1240. Difference is one has 20 amp output, the other is 40 amp. Mine works fine. Must instal dc to dc unit because 200 series has a so called 'smart alternator'.

200 series cruisers are a factory dual starting battery so they are just linked through positive lead from batt to batt. at work I prefer to sell the c-tek dcdc as it has an inbuilt solar regulator and it is cheaper than a redarc also the c- tek has a temp probe and can be mounted on top of the fuse box.
