Box for strips, junction blocks, etc?

**BlinkyBlueLight** · February 14th, 2012, 02:58 PM

I'm looking to put all my strips, fuse blocks, and other assorted electronics in some kind of box or tray in my trunk. I like the idea of putting it in a plastic project box from Radio Shack, but none of them are big enough. Does anyone know where to get a black ABS box, a little bigger than say a shoe box but flatter? I've seen some on installs and curious where you guys get them from.

That's pretty much what I'm looking for; do any brand stores sell those that you know of?

Honestly, I have no clue... I just did a quick search for "plastic project box" on ebay and i got a bunch of results... I'm sure a simple Google search will help...

You might find one on ebay or try your local electrical supplies shop.

You could try Lowes or Home Depot they sell PVC junction boxes that are like what you are looking for. The one in the link below is only 6x6 but I have seen then 14x14 or larger.

Shop CARLON 6" x 6" x 4" Junction Box at Lowes.com
