Looking for a better box

[Cvilledustin]

Hi guys. Built me up a little box mod to test the waters on the workings, I used a cheap battery case for 18650s. so now I want a box that's a little more sturdy. I'm liking the blue project boxes from madvapes but not sure which one will fit. Looking for the size that will hold two 18650 side by side, maybe a touch bigger. Any help would be great

Oh here's my first one. Still gotta clean it up and such

Hammond boxes are great...check those out I have used their 1590g for a parallel 18650 mod

Ahhhh yes. Alum. That would be good for a better version of my side by side

Not to slam Madvapes, but the transparent boxes they offer are extremely brittle. I had one crack while pre-drilling with a 3/32 bit (never used, not dull). I second the Hammond 1590 series, the are nice. Only issue I have is the fact that they aren't flat on the ends or sides - a little filing/grinding remedied that though.

If your gonna make a box, make a bottom feeder!

I'm planning on using the same battery box as you to make me a bottomfeeder, I think those are the perfect size.
I don't mind hte sturdy factor that much....

I don't believe that I'd want a store bought box, as my distributor does hardwood floors & he makes his own with the scrap hardwood. Many of the ones sold in stores & online are cheap imports sold at high margins.

They are sold as a kit, with fitting installed & adapters included, including 2 batteries. Not sure of the exact price, but I do know it's upwards of $100, he makes them when his flooring business is slow by custom order. Engraving is also available, as well as color selection (except clear).
