Performance
The NOCO Commercial Grade Battery Box was designed for rugged environments and it certainly delivers. Impact properties are valued at an astonishing -40℉, but no upper limit is given. It can withstand gas, oil, acid, and other contaminants and is also fully immune to UV exposure. Another rugged battery box you can check out too is the Camco Regular 55362 Battery Box Group. The NOCO HM484 can only fit one type of battery though, which is an unfortunate misstep considering what its cousin can store.
Design
The NOCO HM484 Commercial Battery Box can store battery size group 8D which include 12-Volt marine, rv, trailer, and boat batteries. The NOCO Battery Box features a four corner fastening system for easy hook-up to your vehicle and a captive lid. It’s a rugged battery box with a large internal reservoir for battery acid and large cable entry holes for large gauge cables. If you’re looking for something a little more technically advanced, the MinnKota Trolling Motor Power Center offers a great halfway point between rugged and full-out, technology-laden battery boxes.
Value
The NOCO HM484 Commercial-Grade Battery Box meets ABYC E-10.7 specifications and United States Coast Guard USCG code of federal regulations. This means you can trust it to contain small or large battery acid spills if they happen to occur. The NOCO HM318BKS Snap Top Automotive Batteries also has this feature. The HM484 Battery Box measures 24.4”L x 15.4”W x 12.3”D and also includes full-flow ventilation for releasing battery gases and eliminates water entry.
