Battery box

I am running two batteries in series for boon docking. I have them in separate boxes right now, but would like to get them into a single box. I have been trying to locate one that will hold 2 units but seem to be striking out.

I have thought about just putting one together from from scrap ply, but I like the idea of the plastic.

Anyone have a source or link to help me out?

Thanks in advance!

I'm upgrading to 6v and relocating my batteries; I found this Dual 6 Volt Golf Cart Battery Box (End to End) - 3/16" White Polyethylene on eBay.

If you have enough room on your tongue you may want to look at these boxes. Log on to get the measurements to insure that your batteries will fit in the smaller one. I am not sure if the boxes have vents, but you could add them.

Chrisbn, I'm in the process of doing the same thing. I have to measure the space but it may appear that a plastic tool box by fit my application. I'm placing 2 group 24 side by side. There is a Stanley Fat Max 28 and Dewalt 24. Im looking for some extra room for a marine kill switch.

The Torklift Power Armor boxes are nice. I have one and am happy with it. I have 2 x 6v in mine.

That was my choice of battery box for our TT but then sold it and bought the "Beast".

NOCO make excellent battery products. Their battery chargers may be the best on the market.
