INTRODUCTION

You

the

today.

The

and

Your

includes

these

The

"smart"

isolator

that

cle's

and

any

additional

batteries.

Unlike

conventional

battery

isolators,

the

MBR

into

factory

electrical

system.

allows

all

the

batteries

your

vehicle

become

collective

voltage

source.

The

MBR

ensures

the

proper

voltage

level

the

vehicle's

battery

concentrating

solely

that

battery

until

sees

charge

voltage

above

12.5

volts.

Once

this

voltage

level

has

been

established,

the

MBR

couples

all

the

batteries

they

can

all

When

your

engine

running,

the

MBR

allows

the

alternator

feed

ies

When

the

ignition

turned

off,

the

MBR

becomes

"one-way

gate",

isolating

the

cur¬

rent

the

vehicle's

battery

from

passing

through

the

auxiliary

batteries.

This

"one-way

ensures

that

will
