This is a great product. Well built, easy to install because all the extras need were included with the box.(including battery hold-downs and mat for the bottom. Construction of the box was very good with tight rivets.
Would highly recommend this box. One of the few that hold 2 group 27 batteries.

We took a 7000 mile 82 day adventure and the box looks and operates as good as the day we installed it..



by:

Not cheap, but well worth the money! I recently transferred the box to a new travel trailer and had fortunately kept all the original accessories. Given those mounting parts, the (re-)installation was a breeze.



by:

I purchased this battery box and installed it almost two years ago. It is expensive, but very well worth it. I installed it to carry two 6V batteries because we do a lot of dry camping and need the durable battery power. The box looks great installed and provided excellent protection from thieves. I installed interior hold down brackets to insure the batteries do not move during travel. I can't take claim to the install, I copied someone that had previously put this install online. It works perfect and is a very clean install. I've had many people comment that the factory should have this as an option. I added an additional lock, the the lock on the right side is not adequate and is keyed to a CH751 lock that's on every trailer out there. Not secure at all. With the added lock I'm very confident my batteries are safe. Well worth it!!



by:

I installed this on the front of my travel trailer to provide security for my dual batteries. Great box, very well built and looks nice. Comes with hardware and clear instructions for different mounting options. Only negative is the lock, which came keyed to the very common CH751 key. Google CH751 and you will find that everyone probably has this key who has an RV, gas cap, etc., which negates the otherwise great security the box provides. I opted to replace the lock with a higher security tubular keyed lock. The lock is easy to replace, but plan on spending an additional $20 or for a different lock. I also mounted a battery switch on the side of the box.



by:

This battery box exceeded my expectation.It is well built and was easy to install. Customer service rep George J. went above and beyond to ensure I had an excellent experience with your company.



by:

Bought this box because it is the perfect size for 2/6V Trojan 105's. The box seems to be made very well, which I would hope for the price. I was pretty disappointed in the "straps" provided to hold the batteries. There is no way those straps would work to hold 2 /70 pound batteries in place on the tongue of a trailer. Anyway, I think that if the engineers would add a few more holes in the bottom, 2 pieces of angle iron or aluminum and some all-thread, the batteries would be much more stable. Probably lost any warranty on the box, but it seems to work pretty well for me. thanks!



by:

I looked in a lot of places before I found this battery box. It is exactly what I wanted. It is well-made and secure. I do not worry about my batteries being stolen while in this box and mounted to my trailer. Great quality great price!



by:

The battery box arrived a day earlier than expected and was in great shape. Lot's of mounting options with hardware included. I have to point out that they provide first class hardware for mounting. Much better than what you would get at the big box hardware store etc. The battery box looks great, is very well built and easy to install. Exactly what i was looking for.



by:

Best purchase ever. I have two 6 volt golf cart batteries and constructed a center console out of PVC trim board to support the terminal block and shunt. Very happy with the install and quality of product. It fit on the factory rails/angles. Thanks etrailer!



by:

Fits 2 Lithium Solar batteries perfect all I need well fabricated.



by:

Excellent Product, Well built and sturdy. Processing and shipping time was slower that I would like (Ordered on June 7 didn't even ship until June 13 arrived July 2nd to Alberta Canada) But installation was a breeze and I am happy with the product!



by:

As you requested

Battery box installed
on my 2006 Sprinter



by:

Very well made! Fit perfectly on my Flagstaff SE pop up. Now I have 2 batteries for boondocking. :)



by:

This is a really nice battery box and is exactly as described. Our new batteries are quite expensive, so it's really nice that this box also locks. We received it within a week but haven't installed it on our trailer yet, so I can't provide a picture.

I want to add that customer service is fantastic! A rarity these days.

It works great! The lock can be tricky, but that is the only issue weve had.



by:

Bolted to back of RV on bumper for add'l coach batteries. So now I have four in parallel. Some slight modification to box and all works perfect.

Love the lock mechanism.

The product exceeded my expectations. One recommendation though. Being as it is used for batteries, you should ask the purchaser if they would like the inside of the cavity coated with a non static rubber base. As I did this myself, it prevents any positive leads from touching the case and creating aark. Use that is you would.Otherwise its is an excellent product.



by:

Despite some confusion on the measurements that required clarification from etrailer support when I ordered, I'm very happy with this battery box. It fits two Expertpower 100AH LiPO4 batteries (slightly shorter BCI Group 31) perfectly, with enough play to get them in and out with heavy gauge wiring. The box is plenty strong enough to stand on, convenient for loading the top rack of the camper. The powder coating is a nice quality and has held up over the past year.

Mounted on a Forest River Rockwood 1970ESP without issue



by:

Well constructed, perfect install items. Easily installed in minutes. Extremely happy with this product.



by:

Great battery box. Fit and finish are top notch.



by:

Puts a little bling on the camper and is built very solid



by:

Excellent product as described needed something to secure expensive Lithium batteries I recently purchased. Only comment is adding internal liner (rubber) to prevent grounding during wiring installation.



by:

Fabulous. Well made, simple to mount. Clean and tidy. I have 2 Group 27 12V batteries. Just enough room, c/w tie-down straps (included). I added an isolation switch and resettable fused overload for the power tongue unit on the exterior, along with a solar panel receptacle. All work great. Clean, tidy, and secure.



by:

Quality is solid! Mounting hardware gives you everything you will require for a solid install. Lock works well in all conditions (below freezing). Great fit for 2 new Trojan T105’s AGM 6 V.

But, like other reviews the batteries will require some custom work to secure them in the box. The straps they provide are temporary! For the price of this item it should have something better. I used a single heavy strap that took some time and adjustments weaving it through the bottom slats and then moving the batteries accordingly till the batteries were solid.

It has been a year since my install and I am very pleased with this addition.



by:

Worked out great. Looking for a secure box to house my two batteries for long distance travel. Fit nicely in with little modification to the battery area of the frame.



by:

The battery box was very easy to install. The existing rails on my trailer were too narrow, but the battery box included all of the hardware needed for installing cross rails and the box. Looks great on the front of the camper and was a perfect fit for my two new GC2 batteries.



by:

Fit right on

  • Carrying 2 Batteries and 2 Propane Tanks on a Trailer Tongue
    Propane tanks can't be store inside of an enclosed container like a toolbox. If they build enough pressure it has to vent out to open air. That is why the plastic propane tank covers you see on trailers are open at the bottom. I recommend a traditional dual tank cover, # CAM40532, for the propane tanks so you are nice and safe there. The batteries can go into a box. I recommend box # TLA7708R which is designed for batteries. It is 26-3/4 inches long, 8-3/16 inches wide, and 13 inches tall...

  • Are Holes in Lid Of TorkLift Battery Box Designed For Ventilation
    The holes in the sliding lid on a TorkLift battery Box like part # TLA7708R are designed to let you run wiring and also designed for ventilation as you mentioned. These battery boxes are not waterproof. I confirmed this with my contact at TorkLift.

  • Could Taller Mount Location for Torklift Battery Box be Fabricated
    We don't have spacer blocks to install the TorkLift battery box # TLA7708R at a higher location but I am sure you could take the trailer and box to a local welder/fabricator and they'd be able to help you come up with a solution easily.

  • What are the Dimensions of the Mounting Brackets for TorkLift PowerArmor Battery Boxes
    There are 4 ways that the PowerArmor battery box # TLA7708R can be mounted and one of them uses those brackets. They are extension brackets which are used if the box is not wide enough for the rear corners to sit on the A-frame. Those brackets are 12 inches long overall. They are also 1-5/8 inches wide and 1-5/8 inches tall. The holes are 1-11/16 inches long by 7/32 inches wide. I have linked the instructions for you to view.

  • Can Two 13" Long Batteries Fit Inside TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box
    Yes, the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R will be able to handle both of your batteries as there is 26-1/2" of total length inside, as well as 7-5/8" off width clearance (see attached).

  • What are the Dimensions of the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box TLA7708R
    The differences you're seeing in regards to the larger measurements on the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R are down to the smaller measurements being the actual box size, and the larger ones being that of the top of the box-which is larger than the box. It's just shown that way so that users make sure they have enough room at the front of their trailer to allow the top to sit and be opened.

  • Which Tork Lift Locking Battery and Storage Box Will Work With 2016 Lance 1685 Travel Trailer
    To find the right size battery box for your Lance trailer, you will need to take a couple measurements to make sure it will work for you. If you want to mount it on the tongue of your trailer you need to know if it has sufficient space to handle the length, width, and height of the battery box. The box you asked about, part # TLA7708R measures 26-3/4 inches x 8-3/16 inches x 13 inches. The smaller box, part # TLA7712R measures a bit shorter at 23-7/8 inches but the width and height are...

  • Best Way to Power Lights in Enclosed Trailer
    Ok, we can give you some guidance on this, and the best way to power up interior lights in your enclosed trailer is with an independent 12 volt battery mounted directly on the trailer. To do this, mount the battery with Battery Box # TLA7708R and use a junction box like # 38656 to tap into your 7-way so the battery gets a maintenance charge when you are hooked up to the 7-way. If you need to hook up your junction box it will require ring terminals # 44-5310A, and 12 gauge wire # 12-1-1...

  • Mounting TLA7708R Battery Box to Camper Bumper or Hitch Rack
    I am sure there is a way to mount the # TLA7708R to the rear bumper of your camper but we don't have a specific way to recommend since that would require some out of the box thinking. Since you said you have a hitch you could use a hitch cargo carrier like # 63153 and attach the box to the floor of the carrier. I'd recommend using very wide washers on the bottom of the carrier to spread out the weight of the box.

  • Can The TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box Be Mounted To The Tongue Of A Trailer
    Yes, the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R can easily be mounted to the tongue of your trailer using some self-tapping screws. If the existing holes in the bottom of the box line up with the tongue you can use them or just use the self-tappers to cut through the box and into the tongue. In the attached video below you can see how Dave mounted the box on the tongue of the trailer he was working on.

  • Does TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R have Holes In the Lid
    What you are seeing on the lid of TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R are not holes. They are like plugs/rivets so if you wanted to install a solar panel, # TLA7713, you would have to pop them out first. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • How to Power Enclosed Trailer Lights Off of 12V Battery
    I can tell you exactly what you'll need to power your enclosed trailer's lights off of an independent 12V battery, though there isn't an adapter. You first need to mount the battery with a battery box for 12V batteries like # TLA7708R, and then use junction box # 38656 to tap into your trailer's 7-way. You will also need ring terminals # 44-5310A, and wire # 12-1-1 to run to each light, and to turn the lights on, a light switch such as the Pollak rocker switch # PK34308 or toggle switch...

  • Can the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box Be Mounted To An Existing Tray
    The TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box part # TLA7708R is designed to be installed directly on top of the frame rails on an a-frame trailer. If you already have a tray welded to the frame where the battery box would mount this would need to be removed or modified to fit the new size battery box. In regards to removal, this can be done with a grinder but welding should not be required.

  • Connecting Solar Panel and Controller to Battery in Horse Trailer
    A complete solar power system that includes the panel and the solar controller, such as our Go Power Overlander Solar Charging System # 34282181, connects to your RV battery. The panel and controller deliver charging power to the battery, not directly to your trailer lights. It is not necessary to run new/additional wiring to the lights; they will function off the battery power as they did before the unfinished solar installation was done. The controller will prevent overcharging of your...

  • Recommended Battery Box For Two Group 27 Batteries
    Group 27 batteries are typically 12" L x 7" W x 9" T so I'm assuming your 14" x 14" measurement is just the two batteries butted up against each other. The options that we carry wouldn't really work with the long sides of the batteries facing each other so we'll have to look at options where they are short side by short side. Assuming the width of the batteries is 7" the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R you were looking at would be a good option. With its 7-5/8" W x...

  • Can TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box Be Installed on Top of the Trailer Frame
    There are no laws I am aware of that would prevent you from mounting the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box on top of the trailer frame. It would not hurt to contact the local DMV or state highway patrol office to confirm. On a lot of trailers, the propane tanks are mounted up front and sometimes overhang the frame so I can't imagine that batteries contained in a secure steel or aluminum box would be any different.
