Today we're going to be taking a look at the Curt battery box for breakaway kits. The replacement battery case is going to house and protect your trailer breakaway battery and charger. This is a top loading case that's very easy to access from above. It does have a small hole where the lid and the box meet that way you can run your wires through there. The lid is going to be held on to the box with a plastic tether strap. It's going to be this piece right here that way you don't have to be worried about misplacing or losing the lid.

Taking a look at the inside you can see it does have a nice design that's going to accept a variety of breakaway batteries. The unit is lockable here at the tabs. You can look it with a pad lock, now your padlock is sold separately so if you're in need of one, you can find them right here at etrailer.com. The locking the battery box will really deter tampering and theft. The hole where the padlock will install will accept a quarter inch diameter shackle. The box is going to have built in tab style mounting brackets.

It's going to contain four mounting holes those mounting holes are going to have a diameter of about a quarter of an inch. That way it's easily going to install onto your trailers frame.

It's also going to have a couple of holes here on the bottom.

These are going to have a diameter of five sixteenth of an inch. They are going to separated apart from one another on center by one and seven sixteenths of an inch. We're going to take a look at the overall dimensions of the box, starting with the overall length. Just measuring the box portion it's going to measure about six inches. If we do take a measurement of the overall length from the outer edge to outer edge here at the mounting tabs that's going to measure about seven and a half inches. The overall height of the box, measuring top to bottom, that's going to give us a measurement of about five and a half inches tall.

Measuring the with of just the box portion that's going to be about three and one quarter of an inch. If we include the tab here at the back that's going to increase that measurement to about three and three quarters of an inch. Now when it comes to the mounting holes, these are going to be separated apart from one another on center going this direction, here at the bottom set, probably about six and fifteen, sixteenths of an inch. Here at the top set, we're looking center on center about seven inches. Going this direction the holes are going to be separated apart from one another on center by about two and fifteen, sixteenths of an inch. That's going to do it for today's review of the Curt battery box for breakaway kits.
