DIY: Battery Safe Case
Heres a mini project im working on.
My current battery has flimsy handles that flex badly so i decided to put it in a safe case and flush mount a power panel on the side. This also allows me to stack it in the car along with my other hard cases. Being a waterproof case means i can leave it anywhere overnight.
1) 12v power panel (Lockable 12v socket, USB charge ports & Voltmeter)
2) Basic idea
-35Ah AGM battery
-SCA safe case
3) Electrical components
-Ring eye terminal
-20A Inline Blade fuse
-SPST Rocker Switch w/ red led (30A rated)
-Bullet & Spade connectors
-10, 12, 14AWG wires
-Heatshrink tubing
4) Creating Positive harness
5) Rigid foam to keep battery stationary
6) Foam fitted
7) Completed Harnesses
I still haven’t received the 12v panel yet so I cant drill the holes yet. Also waiting for carbon fiber wrap so I can stop the foam from chipping
Might also include a RCA jack for dew heaters if I can find space.
