Lowtide Extreme Outback Products now
offers the IBS (Intelligent Battery System), a computerized dual-battery manager. The state-of-the-art system uses a RISC micro-computer to either isolate or link multiple batteries as needed. Normal operation separates the starting battery from the auxiliary one to safely power electrical accessories when the vessel isn't running. An override button links the batteries for high-load situations and is also used for self jump-starting. An in-cabin monitor, which has an LED display to show each battery's state of charge, is available. The system is offered in 12-volt and 24-volt models (controls four batteries). Installation involves an included power cable and a pre-made four-wire harness.
