12V Outboard Dual Parallel Battery Connection Kit — 6 AWG
RCE12VBM6PK
Double your 12V capacity for starting and accessories. The RCE12VBM6PK parallels two batteries with heavy 6 AWG wire and plug-and-play connections — ideal for outboard boats running big electronics, campers and motorsports rigs.
Your starting battery is the one you can't afford to lose. Connect-Ease outboard and starting kits use heavy-gauge marine wire and patented plug-and-play connectors so the engine circuit stays secure, accessories stay organized, and the battery comes out in seconds for charging or winterizing.
Compatible electronics and accessories: Fish finders, GPS, VHF radios, bilge pumps, livewell pumps, LED lighting, USB chargers and shallow-water anchors.
System voltage: 12V (two batteries in parallel). Recommended batteries: Two matched 12V batteries of the same chemistry and age. Amperage and protection: 6 AWG; fuse each circuit per device maker.
Add a second battery to your outboard setup for extended runtime and more power for electronics, livewells, bilge pumps, and power poles — without draining your starting battery. Both batteries draw and charge together, giving you more capacity for longer days on the water.
- Wire: 6 AWG leads on both ends; 8 AWG battery-side accessory connector
- Configuration: Dual parallel battery connection — both batteries draw and charge simultaneously
- Accessory Port: Add RCE12VB4 for graphs, live imaging, forward-facing sonar, and more
- Rating: 60–240A DC / UL1977

FAQ: Parallel or ACR — which do I need?
A: Parallel doubles capacity on one bank. Choose the ACR kit (RCE12VBM6IK) to keep a protected starting battery.
FAQ: Do the batteries need to match?
A: Yes — same chemistry, capacity and age.
