Ideal thank you mate, how did you charge the battery? Did you have an outlet on the outside of the box?

Hi mate, I made one last year it works a treat. I will try and find the links to what you may need.
Pretty much what I used

You dont have to use these exact parts, I just did a quick search I cant remember where I got my parts from. The ammo box? You could use a bait bucket if you want I used this as it has a waterproof seal and is really portable, just make sure the battery fits. A bit of wiring and an inline fuse, an hours job. Also I dare say it can be done a lot cheaper and better, it gave me something to do in lockdown, and I am useless with stuff like this! You will need a cheap charger too if you dont already have one.

Been looking for a new portable battery or power pack and have seen people making the 12v battery packs in bait tubs etc. I was wondering if anyone on here had made one for themselves before? And if so looking for a bit of knowledge about them as I am keen to make one of my own.
