TWO BATTERIES, ONE BOX

Side by side, both clamped under one hold-down plate

3MM ALUMINIUM

Powder coated, and it will not rust like a steel box

SEALED, AND VENTED OUTSIDE

A 12mm vent fitting runs a hose to the exterior, so anything the batteries vent leaves the vehicle instead of the cabin

AS/NZS 3001.2:2022

Designed around the standard for electrical work in relocatable vehicles

MADE IN WA

Cut, folded and coated by us, and available as a custom build

The dual version of our sealed lithium compartment, sized for two batteries side by side. It does the same job as the single: a powder-coated 3mm aluminium enclosure that lets lithium live inside a caravan, motorhome, camper or troop carrier, holds the batteries clamped down over corrugations, and vents to the outside of the vehicle rather than into the space you sleep in.

It is fully sealed, with one important condition. A 12mm push-fit vent fitting sits on the top face, and a 12mm hose runs from there to the exterior of the vehicle so anything the batteries vent goes outside. The seal is only as good as the installation — the lid has to be fitted and sealed correctly for the compartment to do its job. Where we supply the compartment on its own rather than fitting it ourselves, that part is in the installer's hands, so it is worth being deliberate about it.

On standards, we would rather be straight with you. The compartment is designed around the requirements of AS/NZS 3001.2:2022, which is the standard covering electrical installations in relocatable vehicles. It does not carry third-party certification, and no enclosure on its own can make an installation compliant — that comes down to the whole install and the person doing it. Wiring and mounting should be carried out by a competent person.

What fits. Two batteries on a 370 x 190 x 245mm case, which means the Amptron BluEdge 200Ah or the Custom Lithium Compact 310Ah. Those two share a case size, so if one fits, the other does, and you can pair them how you like:
Amptron BluEdge 12V 200Ah → · Custom Lithium Compact 310Ah →

Lithium only. Do not put a lead acid, AGM, gel or calcium battery in this compartment. They vent differently and the enclosure is not built for it.

To finish the install you will also need cable, lugs and the vent hose, none of which are in the box:
0 B&S single core battery cable, black and red →
50-8 copper cable lugs →
12mm hose for the vent run → — choose the Black Coil, which is 12mm on the outside and is the size the push-fit fitting takes.
You will also need a polyurethane sealant such as Sikaflex for the lid, which we do not stock.

If neither the single nor the dual suits your build, we make these to order — request a custom battery compartment →

Everything this install needs

0 of 0 in the box

Wiring and mounting should be carried out by a competent person, and the finished installation should comply with AS/NZS 3001.2:2022.
The compartment is only sealed if the lid is fitted and sealed correctly. Run a continuous bead of polyurethane sealant, such as Sikaflex, and let it cure before the batteries go in.
Where we supply the compartment rather than fitting it, the quality of that seal is down to the installer. It is the one step that decides whether the enclosure does its job.
Connect a 12mm hose to the push-fit vent fitting on the top face and run it to the exterior of the vehicle. Keep the run falling where you can and avoid low points that could trap water.
Bolt the compartment down through the mounting feet to structure, not to floor lining or cabinetry panel alone. Two batteries is a heavy load, so the mounting needs to suit.
Size the battery cable for the current and the run length, and crimp 50-8 lugs to suit 0 B and S cable.
Seat both batteries on the base, then fit the hold-down plate so neither can move.

Suits caravans, camper trailers, motorhomes, van builds and troop carriers where the batteries have to sit inside the living space

Mounts to structure through the fixing holes in the mounting feet

Needs a path from the compartment lid to the exterior of the vehicle for the 12mm vent hose

Q: Why does a lithium battery need a sealed and vented box at all?
Because it is going inside a space people sleep in. A sealed enclosure with a vent run to the outside means that in the unlikely event a battery vents, it goes outside the vehicle rather than into the cabin. It also keeps the terminals covered and the batteries clamped down.

Q: Is it certified to AS/NZS 3001.2:2022?
No, and we will not claim otherwise. It is designed around the requirements of that standard, but it does not carry third-party certification. No enclosure by itself makes an installation compliant, because compliance is a property of the whole installation and the person who signs off on it.

Q: What batteries fit?
Two batteries on a 370 by 190 by 245mm case, which is the Amptron BluEdge 200Ah and the Custom Lithium Compact 310Ah. Those two share a case size, so if one fits the other does.

Q: Do both batteries have to be the same?
The compartment does not care, but your system will. Paralleling batteries of different capacity, age or chemistry is not good practice, so run a matched pair.

Q: Can I put an AGM or lead acid battery in it?
No. This compartment is for lithium only, LiFePO4 or lithium-ion. Lead acid, AGM, gel and calcium batteries vent differently and the enclosure is not built for them.

Q: What else do I need to buy?
The batteries, 0 B and S cable in black and red, 50-8 copper lugs, and 12mm hose for the vent run, all of which we stock. You will also need a polyurethane sealant such as Sikaflex for the lid, which we do not stock.

Q: Which hose do I need for the vent?
A 12mm outside diameter hose, which is the Black Coil in our hose tubing listing. Push-fit fittings size on the outside diameter of the tube, so a 12mm internal bore vinyl hose is too large and will not seat.

Q: What if neither size suits my build?
We make these to order. There is a custom compartment request form on the site.
