Review on πŸ”‹ NOCO HM082BKS Group U1 Snap Top Battery Box for Mobility & Lawn/Garden Batteries - Black by Fisseha Rodgers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Suitable for mobile use by radio amateurs

I bought a Duracell DURA12-35C AGM battery (about 8 x 7 x 6 inches) to help some higher current radios during power outages or just for that quieter DC operation. I needed a storage box to protect against accidental shorts at the battery terminals as this battery can arc weld if shorted. I've only found one Noco drawer that fits this "U1" size, but the snap lid is what I really need. needed: something that usually protects the terminals, but also tends to come loose easily. While the cover is oversized, it has room for some simple fuses and a small DMM voltmeter. I don't quite snap it on as tightly as I'd like, but it does is also not detachable so overall it's ok It also comes with a carrying strap and while I don't think I'll need it (as the box has molded handles which are handy) it's a good thing to add to the gear . The price is very reasonable and Revain Prime was in my hands in less than 24 hours.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • slightly crumpled
