At what point do you have to add the additional battery?
In the grand scheme of things, adding a second battery, an isolator, a solenoid/relay (Cole Hersee), a fuse box and a dual voltmeter is relatively inexpensive and something I would do immediately (I did). Not only will it be there "just in case", you're prepping your machine for future accessory additions. I'd rather install that now then try to retrofit it after I've added a bunch of lights, stereo, a heater (blower), USB charging ports, etc.. Just my $0.02 and ... welcome from MI. Love the white buggy!

If you're looking for direction, this video from our very own @RobSparre is an outstanding place to start.

I wanted to take a moment and say hi! Just picked up a brand new 2021 on Friday.....Yes, it is brand new and a 2021. So far I have installed the Honda roof, SuperATV windshield and a rearview mirror. I know I want a winch and some type of stereo in the near future. Any recommendations for those two items is greatly appreciated (I have started to look at threads on those topics). My first question is this. At what point do you have to add the additional battery?

Looking good. Wish I would have went with the superatv windshield instead of the Honda one I ordered when I bought my machine.

She's a beaut, Clark. I recently picked up my 2022 P1000-5 and can't get enough of it. Low 4wd is an animal when trail riding. Have fun, be safe and let's talk about adventures.

To be honest, the only reason I ended up with the SuperATV is that the dealership was out of the Honda ones. I drove 3 hours to get the machine and decided I hadn't spent enough money, so I purchased the roof (installed it in the parking lot), windshield and rear view mirror. But the parts guy highly recommended the SuperATV one.
