What is a battery box used for?
A battery box is a versatile power solution that can be used in various applications, from camping to off-grid living and even as a portable power source for tailgating or fishing trips. They are a simple and effective way to store and manage your batteries while providing a centralised location to connect your appliances and accessories.

Can I install a Lithium battery in the box?
Our range of battery boxes can house all types of chemistry batteries from AGM, GEL, WET and LITHIUM.
When choosing Lithium batteries, it is best to couple this type of chemistry with a Lithium DC Battery Charger to promote optimum charging.
Thumper offers a range of Lithium battery boxes that incorporate an in-built lithium-compatible DC Battery charger directly into the box! The DC charging will offer both vehicle and solar input to allow for the best possible charge rate to be achieved to extend the life of your Lithium Battery!
Can I run 240 Volt power from the battery box?
The Thumper battery boxes do not provide a direct 240-volt output as a standard connection. However, it can be coupled with a wide selection of Inverters that allow you to run 240-volt power! Need more advice on this? Contact us directly for help.
Home of 12 Volt Online offers several packages that include the option of a 240-volt battery charger. For standalone packages without this charger, we usually recommend the Victron range of battery chargers with an Anderson connector fitted. The Anderson fits easily within the battery box and allows for a quick connection to replenish your battery's charge condition.
While most battery boxes are designed to be weather-resistant, their degree of protection can vary depending on the brand, model and materials used. Some portable battery boxes are specifically designed to be waterproof, featuring sealed lids, gaskets and waterproof connectors. However, for most camping and caravans, battery boxes should suffice as long as they're not submerged in water.
