Dual battery set up
I paid for a stage 3 from benchmark but that's never gonna happen from that guy.
I need to run a dual battery setup, can anyone recommend a setup? Even if it's parted out, I'll get it built. It's for a a 2010 jk. Thank you in advance for the help.

I guess I got lucky. I ordered and it took a bit longer than I expected, but I did get it. The heart and soul of the stage 3 is the Cole Hersee 250a Smart Isolator, which you can Google. I picked one up for $125 +$25 shipping. There are plenty of battery trays. Rugged Ridge closely matched the Benchmark Designs tray. Now you only need some 4 guage wire and you are all set.

I looked up the isolator you mentioned. It didn't look like the one that would come on the kit. The 250a was larger and looked like a "brick". Is that correct?

Longer than that. No emails, pm's, calls, etc. just money taken. I don't mind waiting but with no communication, what else is it. Money taken.
I have to find the isolator too.
Thanks for the posts.
