Fibreglass Battery boxes.
Anyone on here make them or know the best place to get them?

Back once again like a renegade master

I have just done a mould for one to suit a red top battery. The first one went to Cossierick, you might pm him for his opinion.
I am at present doing the bottom mould for a normal battery (they will both use the same top.)
The first one should be about a week away.
I will get some pics up this evening

Im always amazed how much these cost, are yours more reasonable?

I need one too - what size are they?

The sizes are:- L=250mm W=170mm H=220mm for normal battery.
L & W are same for red top type battery and H=105mm
Price for normal battery = £ 30
Price for red top type = £27
Picture attached

Dave,

Is there any chance that you could make a lie flat battery box for a red top 40 as no one makes them any more, although several companies still list them on there websites, I can supply you with the dimensions.

Thanks

Rob

Rob, the red top box I mentioned above is lie flat.
I will try again with the pics
Dave
wow it worked.
Please ignore the carbon look on the large one the finish will be as the small one

Yes i can confirm these boxes are good.

Good box from a good bloke.

Rob, i have the small box and a red top 15 layed flat with loads of space in it.

Dave,

Sadly it's still not big enought for the Red Top 40 (the mother of all Red Tops) I'm after a box measuring L=250mm W=220mm H=105mm, can you make anything that would work? I can get you some piccy of the battery and a ruler if it will help.
