INSIGHT 48V030-GC2
This Quick Installation Guide contains important information regarding the proper installation of your
InSight Series lithium battery. This QIG only applies to RELiON InSight Series 48V030-GC2 lithium battery.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. USE PARALLEL CONNECTIONS
The InSight 48V030-GC2 is a 48V, 30Ah battery that is only to
be connected in parallel to meet your energy requirements.
To get 60Ah connect two 48V InSight batteries in parallel, if
you want 90Ah connect three in parallel and so on. You may
connect up to ten 48V InSight batteries in parallel. They are only
to be used in a 48V system and cannot be connected in series.
See wiring diagram on next page. Caution, if you are running
12V accessories, you MUST use a 48V to 12V converter.
2. INSTALL THE BATTERIES CLOSE TOGETHER
If you are replacing your existing batteries with fewer than the
original batteries, install the new InSight batteries close to each
other in the battery compartment.
3. USE RELION INSIGHT BATTERY SPACERS
We recommend using our Battery Spacers to fill the empty
battery spots so you can use the existing battery hold-downs
that come in your vehicle. These can be purchased on our
website at relionbattery.com. If you do not use our Battery
Spacers, please ensure your InSight batteries are securely held
down.
4. CABLE SIZE
B e sure to use cables of equal lengths to connect your InSight
batteries.

5. TORQUE
Use the proper torque.
79.7 – 88.5 in-lbs . 6.6 - 7.4 ft-lbs . 9 – 10 N-m
6. UTILIZE CAN CABLES
CAN cables (1 ft) are provided with your InSight battery. Starting
with the first battery connect the CAN cable from the Output
(positive battery side) to the Input of the 2nd battery (negative
battery side) and so on. The CAN port on the negative side of
the 1st battery and on the positive side of the last battery will
remain unused. Longer CAN cables (2 and 4 ft) are available
upon request.
7. POWER THE BATTERY ON
Once connected, press and hold the Power button on one
of the batteries until you see the first LED flash green. It will
continue to flash green every 5 seconds. You will notice that
once you wake up one battery the remaining batteries will
automatically wake up. Once the batteries are awake, you can
tap the Power button to see the state-of-charge (SOC) of each
battery. Refer to Table 3 to determine the SOC. If the batteries
are not at an equal SOC, they will balance upon being used.
Refer to Table 2 for how to turn off the battery.
8. CHARGING
Wait 2 full minutes after using your battery before connecting
your charger. Failure to wait 2 minutes may result in failure to
charge.
