Looking for some kind of a battery box in plastic. I would like to put it up front for lights. Trail tech has nice batteries but they are nuts for what they want. Special when buy batteries at cost.

Now this might sound ghetto but ill give you an idea i have. Im assuming youll be using a rather small battery. Something that will maybe fit between shock towers or somewhere under the tank and forward. Since you want plastic what if you find a tupperware container that is near the size of your battery? You can drill holes add gromets and run your wires out. It has a water tight dust tight lid too. All you need to make are mount for the box.

Not sure where your from but around my parts we have these 99and cent stores. They usually have generic tuperware type containers of all sizes.

The Ballistic Lithium batteries and Shorai Lithium are super light, small, and strong...

Have you thought of using one from a 400EX ?

Might be perfect

If i remember right, a 400EX battery is alot bigger than a 450R battery. Plus the 450R battery has more amperage i believe.
