Default Need a larger "receiver" box...

Howdy, what do you guys use for boxes? I have an SCX box in the rear of my wraith for electronics-receiver, led light control, and an led light switch, and it's damn full! The rear of the truck is open and I'm looking for a larger box that isn't a rubber made sandwich container, any ideas??

x2 on the radio shack hobby boxes....... Have used in past and are great

Me personally I conformal coat everything....... Shrink wrap and run it. I end up with very little room for any boxes.

Good stuff guys, thanks! I think I'll give the radio shack box a try.

I've also used the project boxes in two rigs with no problems. I used a dremel to make room for the exiting wires near the top, then used silicone around the wires and around the entire lid.

You could try any nitro buggy radio boxes as they have room for Rx and 5cell batteries. Most are at least water resistant....
