Which weatherproof battery boxes would fit with this battery? Is there a classification of box that I should look for?

I would copy all the specs off the battery, including the size, and do a search on the net. I've found oddball batteries for everything on the net.

Neither will fit. The diameter is okay, but the length of the battery does not allow the lid to be screwed down more than a couple of threads. Would definitely not seal for moisture protection.

I put them in my patio and poured locking sand around it... you should be able to pry it up when it comes time to change the battery. then you put more sand around it

This "universal" style battery box is big enough to accomodate the length of a Group 31 battery. Shorter batteries are accomodated by use of a plastic partition pressed into internal slots. If anticipating rough roads, recommend adding wooden spacers between partition and end of box.

As long as box is vented battery's will be fine I wouldn't leave inverter in there it needs air.

I use a v lock 14.4 volt battery. You will need some minus green gel as it has a green tint to it. It is not a light panel quality, but the price is right.

My guess is that some people mount it to the battery box and some to a metal frame or fiberglass all varying in different thickness which would require a different length screw based on your mounting surface.

To an electrical box where the electrical connections are made and protected from the weather.

I can't tell you what will fit. There was a list with the ad. I can tell you the battery is working fine. I'm very happy with it.

Keep the inline fuses. That's the way the engineers designed them. Your battery box fuses are fine to use in conjunction.

yes, but i would not recommend this box. I thought it was poor quality and it would not fit a model of a battery that it claims it will. I would recommend getting the similar product from walmarts boating dept. It is a bit higher priced but it is made better.also the charge level indicator light went out on mine the first time i used it.

I have left my alumacraft sitting outside in the driveway with no cover on the boat, with the battery box exposed to all the elements and have had no problems. I leave uncovered due to solar panel trickle charger on battery. I have since moved the boat into my garage, still no issues. The box has been hit by it all, rain, sleet, spray, snow, no issues yet.

I replaced a battery in one of mine with a unit from Interstate (or Batteries Plus) and have had no problem for years. They selected the right model to fit the case. It is a higher rated battery.

The battery for the slim exterior "bell push" is provided in the package. You will, however, need four "C" cell alkaline batteries for the interior "Chime" portion. All batteries are simple to install. I chose not to permanently mount my exterior bell push and used the sticking strip provided - it is weatherproof and has stayed put through intense FL heat and blowing rain. I also did not permanently mount the interior chimes - it is in a cabinet. Now I never miss the UPS guy or a neighbor at the door! Would buy again!

I would advise not too as the power pack is not weatherproof, If possible install on a j-box with a weatherproof enclosure.

I know this is an old question but this set up might work for anyone interested. http://www.amazon.com/MM7440C-Weatherproof-Outdoor-Receptacle-Protector/dp/B001JEPX6C/ref=pd_sim_hi_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0CXX26JZJQNEEXAVG1XC
