P500 Dual Batteries ?

[Derail]

I have a 12” LED light bar and two LED fog lights that that are seldom used (I don’t do much night riding). And soon will be installing some kind of basic sound system or sound bar that will be used about half the time I am riding in my buggy. That will probably be the only electrical accessories that I ever install on my buggy. Questions...is the P500’s charging system up to the task and also, do I need a dual battery set up ? I don’t mind going to dual batteries if needed but don’t want to go through the trouble/expense if it is not necessary.

I have a voltmeter in my dash. Will keep an eye on the situation and if I need to go to dual batteries later I will.

I too have a battery tender plug hardwired to the battery on my P500. And my Harley. And my dirt bike. And my riding mower. I am a big believer in battery tenders. They definitely extend the life of batteries a great deal.
