[RE-wrenches] small battery boxes

[Jeff Yago]

We are having a real problem finding a pole-mounted battery box for smaller
solar sign lighting projects.  We have switched to LED lights which cost
more byt do not require the larger batteries and solar module.  However, the
smallest battery box we can find is the DPW 16" wide x 9" deep X 20" tall.
This is a great box for  group 31 battery, but is too large and costs too
much for smaller applications.  I am thinking about using a group 22 battery
which would fit in a pole-mounted battery box that is 12" wide x 8" deep x
15" high, which still leaves room for a control panel at the top rear.

It does not look like the solar manufacturers have anything, so do you know
of anybody making a battery box this size but perhaps it is being sold for
another type application.  It still will need small screened louvers for
ventilation and a locking door, but we can always make our own control panel
if that is not supplied.  Since its 12 volt DC and off-grid application I do
not think it needs to be UL listed which might help reduce cost, but not
sure.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
