Large Enough For A Large Battery
By Loren C.

Purchased 06/29/2021 |
Review Posted 07/20/2021
My maintenance free 78 amh battery has plenty of room to spare. I’m sure a 100 amh battery would fit.
The clips for the lid are a bit difficult to get unclipped. The leads could use to be a little longer. I have to put my batteries at a 90 deg. angle. For this setup the leads could be a little longer. That would make hook up a little easier.

Great People And Service

Battery box was adequate. A better lid lock mechanism would be helpful. I think the price is exorbitant, but wanted to create a clean and respectful install for my in-laws.

Product was as expected, and fits good.

Review Posted 04/22/2015
I did not have the issue that the other reviewer mentioned about the cable length. I do think they could have been longer cables, I had to put a bend in them so I could affix the covers to the battery boxes after I wired the two batteries together.
Not a severe bend, but longer wires would have made it easier. Looks clean, and I set the batteries in their boxes on top of a platform about 1.5 ft off the ground for extra assurance in case of water contact. Kind of surprised you can pick-up the batteries when they are inside these cases because the batteries are crazy heavy! The case does not bend and seems sturdy.

I Expected Better
By Carl G.

Review Posted 05/17/2014
I bought this to store the battery I bought to extend my back up time. The 9 inch cables that came with it were way to short to hook up the batteries as directed. I had to buy ones twice as long to make it work with the box.

I want to add a battery power supply to my existing sewerage pump. It runs on a 20A circuit. I don't want to have to buy an entire system, just a battery backup. What do you recommend?
