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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

Great battery box. Fit and finish are top notch.



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:

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



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:

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



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:

Needed more battery room so I could upgrade to two T-125 6 volt Trojans on my Lance 2185 travel trailer. This box was easy to mount with great instructions. It looks great and its nice to have those expensive batteries locked up.

  • Will Torklift Battery Box # TLA7708R Fit 2020 Micro Minnie 2108 FBS
    I looked up several pictures of 2020 Winnebago Micro Minnie 2108 FBS models and they all have easily enough room for the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R to fit as this was designed to fit campers just like the Micro Minnie. I attached a picture of it installed on a similar camper as yours as well as a review video for it for you to check out too.

  • 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...

  • TorkLift PowerArmour Locking Battery Box Footprint For Trailer Tongue Installation
    The TorkLift Locking Battery Box part # TLA7708R measures 26-3/4" long x 8-3/16" wide x 13" tall at the base not the lid. The base of the box will fit and install on your 2 foot x 4 foot tongue flat. I have attached a video below and a screen shot of the video showing the dimensions.

  • Internal Dimensions of TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box
    When we measured the internal dimensions of the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R we found that it was 26-1/2" long x 7-3/8" wide x 12-9/16" high. This means it would work with your pair of 13" long x 6-3/4" wide x 10" high batteries so long as that 13 inches was measured at the longest point of your batteries. If so there would be a half-inch or so to spare. You can take a look at the linked video review which details these measurements at the end of the video.

  • 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 Interior Lights on Enclosed Trailer
    The best way to power interior lights in your enclosed trailer is with an independent 12 volt battery mounted on the trailer. To do this, mount the battery with Battery Box # TLA7708R and use junction box # 38656 to tap into your 7-way so the battery gets a maintenance charge when you are hooked up to the 7-way. Hooking up the junction box will require ring terminals # 44-5310A, and wire # 12-1-1 to run to each light, and you can use rocker switch # PK34308 to turn them on and off. Your...

    I pulled one of the TorkLift PowerArmor Locking Battery Box # TLA7708R from our warehouse and measured the lock since TorkLift unfortunately doesn't offer replacements. It's a simple cam lock with a 3/4" long core that's 3/4" tall and 5/8" wide. The cam lever is 1-1/2" in length with a 1/2" offset. We unfortunately don't have a lock to match these dimensions but if you can find one somewhere that at least matches the core dimensions you could most likely just swap over the cam lever from...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 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.

I've attached a photo a customer sent us of two 6V Trojan T-105 batteries in this box. The slightly shorter # TLA7712R is also an option.

  • Will a 6V Battery Fit in a 12V Battery Box or Holder
    Since 12V batteries are typically larger than 6V batteries, a single 6V battery should fit just fine in a 12V battery box (or holder) like the under-vehicle box # TLA7727. If you have two 6V batteries then you will need a larger box like the TorkLift # TLA7708R which is also available with a solar panel for charging as part # TLA7708RS.

    Generally speaking, the interior lights on an enclosed trailer would be powered by the battery but if the trailer does not have a battery then they would be ran to the 12 volt pin on the 7-way trailer connector. If your interior lights are not working then first make sure you have power on the 7-way because if you do not there may be a blown fuse on the vehicle but you also need to be sure your trailer battery (if equipped) is fully charged.
