Painted Steel, not Aluminum

Nice box at a reasonable price. Painted steel, so a bit harder to drill or punch than an aluminum box. I used one of these for a power supply build and it worked well, however, i did replace the front with a thicker plate made out of Aluminum.The panels are are all screwed to the two plastic bezels, front and rear. Everything is held together with those plastic pieces, but it works OK. You can disassemble the front, back, and top cover, for easy access to the bottom to mount parts. There are…

Pros
  • Works well for my lead post PID controller.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for outdoor or harsh environments

Great little low cost hobby box however.

Great little box but came poorly packaged in a plastic bag. Consequently the corners were beat up. This box is fine for home projects as long as you do not have to meet any grounding or shielding requirements. The base, front, top and rear panels are all insulated from each other making proper grounding and shielding impractical. The front and back panels screw into plastic so they will not take a lot of answer,y and reassembley. But it is hard to find a Caddilac when your pocket book says…

Pros
  • Control box for powder coating oven may melt did not no the frame was plastic when I ordered it
Cons
  • Difficulty in assembling the enclosure may frustrate some users

Sturdy, well-engineered project box

This project box worked perfectly as both a Temperature Controller and as a CNC Control Box. A particularly excellent feature is the ability to access all sides, top and bottom making component attachment and mounting components far easier than if just the sides came off. Another nice feature is how sturdy the box is. I added an emergency off switch to the top of the CNC Control box and when I "panic", I'll whack that top switch with gusto. The point being I don't have to worry about box…

Pros
  • Material: metal; Net weight: 820g; Main color: blue
Cons
  • May not be compatible with certain types of connectors

It is worth my money

i use it for my power supply, it works good. The metal is quite tough, it take me a little effort to drill holes for cables. May not provide sufficient protection against corrosion.

Pros
  • Out size of the electrical box: 9.1" x 7.3" x 3.9"/230 x 185 x 100mm(L*W*H); Inner size of the electrical box: 8.1" x 6.8" x 2.9"/ 205 x 173 x 74mm; Radiator Size: 6.4"x1.0"/163mmx25mm - - (Allowable Error: ±2mm)
Cons
  • May not provide sufficient protection against corrosion

works well good for me

Sturdy and durable . Powder coat is easily scratched and the metal face and back plate a little hard to cut . I cut one square hole 1.5 by 3 inch and i took 20 min. nd 6 Dremel cuing wheels to cut . but it drills easy .

Pros
  • Attractive and tough enclosure. I was still able to drill through it.
Cons
  • May not fit all types of circuit boards

Very versatile project bos

Used two of these boxes to connect air pumps and solenoid control valves to special water displacement system. Very convenient and professional especially when used with rubber grommets in holes to protect wires or hoses that need to pass through to connect inside.

Pros
  • Line box with foam for electronic protection from shirts.
Cons
  • May not be customizable to fit individual needs

good for price in my review

OK box for price. Steel panels are a little thin, so be careful when drilling. Don't really like bright blue color. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • The electric enclouse heat sink nature, electromagnetic field protection and robust construction,great for electronic projects, student projects, amplifiers, etc
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all types of microcontrollers

A bargain, but nothing more

Saved a whole lot of money with this enclosure and it gets the job done. The feet on the bottom are sturdy and have good clearance if you are going to have screw heads on the bottoms. Vents are nice and the U shaped top makes it easy to package. The plastic tap screws are a pretty lousy choice and you will probably only get 1 or 2 chances at screwing everything together before the plastic is stripped, so wait until the very end.

Pros
  • Design with matt plastic surface, screw tightened, which can offer you with electrifying protection.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use with some types of sensors

Great for putting a receiver in it

I used this to put a Bluetooth receiver in it for my patio speaker and took the front plate and put hinges on it for a cover to protect from sun and if it rained hard enough and got under my soffits

Pros
  • Hey It's OK, Thinish bendy metal but it did the trick.
Cons
  • May require additional accessories to properly secure electronics

Worked well for a QRPLabs clock kit

The case was large enough to add a 110vac/5vdc power supply inside with clock and gps. I painted the metal parts of the case black. The metal is thin but strong enough for my purposes.

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • May not be suitable for high-voltage applications

does exactly what it says. boxes my project.

used it to house a PID and SSR for my digital temp build for a smoker project I am working on. Was easy to work with to mount the components and looks damn good to boot. Good size variety to choose from as well. Will definitely order more as needed.

Pros
  • Thin but steady enough.
Cons
  • Limited color options may not appeal to all consumers

Great little box! in my review

Good looking and easy to work with; can open on five sides, thus it's very easy to mount and wire stuff inside. That's my review.

Pros
  • Decent quality. Great price. Wish it was black. Steel is good gauge even for transformers.
Cons
  • May not be the most visually appealing option

Don't waste your time.

I bought my first case like this from another vendor and it was fine.The joke I received from this vendor arrived in a beat-up Fed-Ex bag and not much protection. Fortunately, it seemed ok at first. Let me be clear. THIS WAS EXACTLY the same case ($1.50 less) however I noticed that this case did not have the front and back attached when it arrived.So I drilled holes into front panel only then to discover that the front and back panel do not fit! That must be why they were not attached when it…

Pros
  • Made from high-quality metal, this enclosure provides ample protection for your electronics from physical damage
Cons
  • May not be suitable for high-frequency applications
