[RE-wrenches] Battery boxes

[Hilton Dier III]

Take a look at www.usplastic.com and check out their polyethylene tanks. 
TAMCO is one brand I have used. A 36" x 20" x 20" tank will hold four 
large-ish batteries (L-16 or similar) with room to spare. The lids need 
some foam tape for air sealing, but otherwise they are acid resistant 
and remarkably strong. They look tidy and are easy to drill into for 
conduit fittings, hinges, latches, etc. I've used them a few times for 
small 4 x 12V battery banks, but you could link two of them for 8 x 6V.
