Get two. One for batteries and one for equipment. Still cheaper than any proper rack cabinet.
Or get a bigger one. You’d have to get 4 of those 32” ones to match the cost of a DDB cabinet. I’m not advocating toolboxes as an ideal solution, but for awhile that was the solution we could afford.

I think the issue is that ideal for you is not ideal for everyone. My ideal would be 48V with 4x100Ah batteries. Someone else’s ideal is just gonna be an AC power strip and a light bulb. If there was one configuration that would outsell all others, then someone would manufacture that box. When I had to build outdoor enclosures on the cheap I used jobsite toolboxes https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGID-32-in-W-x-19-in-H-x-19-in-L-Portable-Jobsite-Storage-Box-RB32/317120068 You can’t beat that price for that size enclosure. Nowadays I’d build a shed if there’s space, or use DDB Unlimited if there isn’t. I get to play with big boy money now. If you want something built custom to your needs then Alpha Technologies will build whatever you want, but be sure to bring your checkbook. Or I’ll build whatever you want for a case of beer and a pizza. My lead times are long though. -Adam From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com <mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com> > On Behalf Of Colin Stanners Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2022 12:43 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com <mailto:af@af.afmug.com> > Subject: [AFMUG] Outdoor 24V PSU cabinet with batteries? Hi all, Looking at options for tiny WISP sites - ideal would be a small outdoor cabinet with 120VAC input, 2x 12V 12AH / 18AH batteries, ~27V charger/PSU around 5A and a temperature-controlled battery blanket. Is there anything like that in the market so I don't have to organize design/build? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
