Description

Isolate with Confidence

The NXV BIR500 Isolator is the perfect solution when adding a secondary battery to your audio system. It allows the second battery to be fully dedicated to the sound system and does not create a voltage drop like common isolators tend to do. The isolator will draw less than 1-Amp when your vehicle is powered on. All of this will ensure that your battery will be isolated with confidence!

Lengthen the Life your Batteries

When two vehicle batteries are wired in parallel they have a tendency to charge and drain one another. Installing a relay that disconnects the batteries when the engine is off prevents excessive wear and lengthens the life of the batteries. Whenever you turn your engine back on, the batteries will be connected without any voltage drop to the second battery.

Product Details:

  • Used to isolate a second battery powering audio, video, navigation, or other equipment
  • Prevents a dead starting battery after listening to the stereo with the engine off
  • Capable of handling 500-Amp continuous and 700-Amp surge
  • The relay coil will operate safely between 10 and 16 Volts
  • Can be used to completely isolate equipment from power when the ignition is off
  • Dimensions: 2-3/8" W x 2-3/8" D x 3-3/4" H
  • Authorized Internet Dealer
  • 1-year Manufacturer's Warranty

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


If you have a high-output alternator (250A+) or multiple large amplifiers, you need the BIR500. Its 500A rating prevents the internal contacts from welding together under the massive current draw of a competition-level system.
No. The BIR500 is a "Normally Open" relay. When your ignition is off, the circuit is physically broken. It draws zero current in standby, ensuring your batteries stay isolated and your starter battery remains fully charged.
To take advantage of the 500A capacity, you must use 1/0 AWG or larger high-quality copper cable. Using thin wire will create a bottleneck, causing the wire to overheat and significantly dropping the voltage to your rear batteries.
Yes. The BIR500 is perfect for winches, which can pull massive current. By using this isolator, you ensure the winch only pulls from the auxiliary battery (or both when the engine is running) without risking a dead battery in the woods.
Not at all. Because the BIR500 uses heavy-duty industrial internal contacts to move 500 Amps, a loud mechanical "click" or "thunk" is a sign of a strong, healthy connection. It means the relay is fully seated and ready for high current.
Unlikely. If a channel pops with no music, bypass the isolator and connect the amp directly to the battery. If it still pops, the amp is defective. If it stops, check the isolator for a loose ground or a failing internal contact.

Very happy.

Product works just as advertised and suits my purposes perfectly. My second battery drives a heavy duty wench, fog lights, and stereo system and the NVX BIR500 has been keeping it well charged. It was easy and quick to install. The only thing I wish it came with would be rubber caps for the posts. I accidentally tapped them more than once, causing sparks (that's why the 3 under 'look/design'), Before I wrapped them in electrical tape. Other than that I've very happy with it.

Great equipment for the price

Had my profesional installler put in in line between my batteries (which are in parallel), works like it should with no probloms. Can't beat the price for a 500 amp isolator!
