    ammo cans

    Read Sailr's post about blown up Turnigys. Anyone know of a good source for ammo cans? Figure I'll get smart before anything bad happens- thanks.

    Amazon is a good place to start looking. Local gun shows allways have them on display for sale.

          Do you ever worry about accidentally shorting out a battery against the metal box?

            I lined mine with thin foam padding .... bottom, sides and then set a piece on top prior to closing!
            We did it with a Bang!

              On my small batteries I have only the female Deans connectors, and the male connectors of my larger batteries have shrink tubing covers on them. Besides, the boxes are not bare metal - they are covered inside and out with a rust resistant paint. No worries.

                      I was thinking of using a metal tool box and spraying the inside with Plasti dip.
