Emptor caveat to purchase ONE case regardless of pictures

Ultimately it's my fault for not triple checking but the <Two Choices Available> pictures are misleading. The white image shows one box and the black image shows TWO boxes. I was in a hurry and considered several options, mistakenly assuming the purchase was for two cases that I needed for my project. Again my fault and I will keep ONE case BUT I will never buy anything from this reseller ever again.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Worked great for me

I had to include a wireless switch for my fountain so it wouldn't be damaged by rain. This box was the perfect size and worked exactly as intended. I screwed the box to the wall of the house and made small cutouts for the power cords. Everything fit in perfectly. I sealed the cutout where the cable went into the box with silicone to keep it waterproof. The radio signal goes straight through the box, but the water stays outside. The white color of the box matches the color of the house. Very…

Pros
  • Very good value
Cons
  • Very expensive

They met my needs.

I needed two boxes for a project I was working on. These two boxes are perfect for my needs. They were strong enough to withstand a step drill and were easy to manipulate. I can't say if they are waterproof. They come with a "gasket" to insert between the top of the box and the lid, but I can't say for sure how much water it protects. I wrapped the lid with tape as a precaution. But yes, if you need small boxes for projects, they will surely fit. I would buy them again if I had to do more…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Expensive

Large solar meter installation box

When I first received this box I thought it was too big to install 3 small electricity meters to measure the power produced by the solar panels, the charge controller and the power drawn monitor the batteries. However, once I started connecting all the components, including the shunt for each of the meters, the size was perfect to accommodate all the shunts and the necessary wiring. It took some time to cut out the holes for installing the meters. It would be great if the manufacturer included…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • poorly thought out

I'm a well-made, durable project box.

Waterproof plastic box for pinfox projects. These are beautiful sturdy plastic project boxes that look like beautiful stainless steel screws and have a watertight gasket that fits into the molded groove in the lid. There are also 6 unused screw rods on the bottom that can be used to attach a circuit board or other things. The finish is glossy black. The wall thickness of the box is approx. 2.4 mm, but it seemed even thicker and proved to be very durable. I used mine as a base for a 51 inch…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • No

Great boxes for projects!

These are by far the best project boxes I have ever used. Very strong and strong. I would rate the wall thickness of the box at 1/8 inch or more. The lids fit well, the screws don't slip out of the holes. Various molded PCB mounting racks are located at the bottom of the box. I really can't comment on the water resistance of the product as I use it for power supplies and RF projects that require ventilation. The product looks beautiful with no scratches or scuffs. I am very happy with it. I…

Really didn't meet my needs. I had to do my homework

I ordered this box based on a review from another Amazon customer. This box should contain a 20 amp switch that I bought from Revain. The biggest disadvantages of the switch were the incompatibility with most electro boxes. Most of the Switch's reviewers have pointed this out and suggested various solutions. One reviewer said he had used this box and it worked well and gave a link to the product so of course I ordered this box. When I received the box it was clearly too big for my Craftsman…

Pros
  • Electrical Boxes, Wiring & Fittings

  • Available in Black only

Great box for DIY electronics

TL; DR - I bought 2 of these for DIY music gear, both turned out great! I use large boxes (200mm x 120mm x 75mm, black) for DIY electronics. Here are my key takeaways. Good properties: Easy to drill material. The thickness is ideal for mounting most components (switches, LEDs, potentiometers, power jacks, MIDI jacks, audio jacks, etc.). The top nuts built into the case are metal and will not wear out if you have to open it repeatedly. The box is very durable. The large box offers enough space…

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • You could have chosen a newer model
