Have you tried "Quick Cable" I think you will need to vent and lock it

We have switched to LED lights which cost more byt do not require the larger batteries and solar module. However, the smallest battery box we can find is the DPW 16" wide x 9" deep X 20" tall. This is a great box for group 31 battery, but is too large and costs too much for smaller applications. I am thinking about using a group 22 battery which would fit in a pole-mounted battery box that is 12" wide x 8" deep x 15" high, which still leaves room for a control panel at the top rear. It does not look like the solar manufacturers have anything, so do you know of anybody making a battery box this size but perhaps it is being sold for another type application. It still will need small screened louvers for ventilation and a locking door, but we can always make our own control panel if that is not supplied. Since its 12 volt DC and off-grid application I do not think it needs to be UL listed which might help reduce cost, but not sure. Any suggestions??
