Yes Bob - I sprung for the battery box. It's a *perfect* fit, worth every penny. I'm mounting it on the rear strut carry-through so I will also truss the back side of that with one aluminum angle behind the center bolt holes. It's pretty heavy... but I've heard they will easily crank over a 300 hp Lycoming, so my little putt-putt shoudn't be a problem.
AWESOME batteries. Not affected by heat extreme cold (-30C). Hope you bought the PV680 battery box?
Zenith kit only supplies an aluminum "L" and strap to mount the battery.
