The OMEGA system includes the steel battery tray, a completely pre-wired top lid, and a Redarc Alpha 25 amp DC-DC charger with a mounting bracket. Choose your cranking battery and accessory battery from the options below for the most complete and easiest to install dc-dc charger based dual battery system on the market.
POWER UNLEASHED

Charger
A bracket holds the REDARC Alpha dc-dc charger over the fuse box.
Plug In The Power
One click, wiring’s done.
Includes a Redarc Alpha 25 Amp Charger
How It Works
Engine On:
Your alternator will charge the cranking battery as normal. All of your factory electronics will run from the cranking battery only. When the Redarc charger senses the engine is on, it begins charging your secondary battery while you are driving, using the optimal charging voltage for your battery type. The built in Green Power Priority™ feature will prioritize solar input when available, minimizing the load on your alternator and saving fuel.
Engine Off:
- All factory circuits or any aftermarket devices connected to the cranking battery continue to be powered by the cranking battery.
- All aftermarket devices connected directly to the aux battery continue to be powered by the aux battery and will not drain down your cranking battery.
Easy to Install:
The Omega system handles all the wiring for you, making it as easy as it can possibly be to install a Redarc DC-DC charger and an auxiliary battery. The system comes with the new steel battery tray to hold both batteries, the Omega lid with all the wiring integrated into it, a bracket for easily mounting the Alpha charger, and all the necessary hardware.
Bluetooth Monitoring
Monitor the status of your system by using the Redarc Redvision app. Search the app store for 'Redarc'. You'll first use the REDARC Redvision Configurator app to setup your new Alpha charger. Then use the Redvision by REDARC app to monitor the battery voltage, temperature, and charging levels from both the Alpha charger and from your solar panels (if equipped).
Start Assist Mode
If your cranking battery is too low to start the engine, you can use the Redvision app to put the Alpha charger into Recovery mode. This mode will use power from your accessory battery to turn on the charger and charge up your cranking battery for 15 minutes.
Battery Size Required
The cranking battery must be a Group 34 size so that the factory positive post clamp can connect to the battery's positive post. If using an AGM accessory battery, we recommend a Group 34 size for the easiest installation. To use a lithium accessory battery, it must be a Group 34 size (or smaller) to fit the tray. We are currently not aware of any lithium Group 34 battery on the market that can withstand under hood temperatures.
Compatibility
This system fits the 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK with the 3.8L or 3.6L engines. It also fits with engine swaps such as the 5.7L and 6.4L Hemi and LS engines. We also have Right Hand Drive JK kits available.
Cable Size
The Omega system's battery cables are made with 8ga heavy duty, high strand count, pure copper welding cable. Why welding cable instead of battery cable? It's more flexible, more conductive, with a thicker, more abrasion resistant jacket for ultimate durability. The lugs are made of pure copper and tin plated which is more conductive and eliminates corrosion, then covered with an extra thick, adhesive-lined heat shrink material to fully seal the ends of the copper wire for long lasting performance.
Install Time
If you're handy with a wrench, and if you follow along with our detailed installation video, most people can install this kit in their driveway in 2-3 hours. If you prefer to have your local 4x4 shop install it for you, most shops will bill 2 hours for installation in a stock vehicle. If you already have some aftermarket wiring that needs to be rerouted to otherwise cleaned up, add to the installation time as appropriate.
