They sell the 1.5" wide sheet metal strips with holes in them at the hardware store- the stuff they use to suspend plumbing etc. and it's dirt cheap. Wrap it around the battery box and bend the ends...

I thought about sticking with a smaller generator, but I also will use it as a backup for my furnace when the snow storms take out my power out here in the sticks of VT. The small 8K BTU air...
