Well tried my hand at building a power box for my ice shelter to run my led lights, charge my phone etc.
As it was my first attempt, I learnt a few things what I would do different next time (different style fuse panel with a ground connection, different switches as these ones seem a bit flimsy and not sure the lighter socket is totally necessary).
Battery is a 12v 10ah lithium ion. Put a foam pad under it and then crudely cut some styrofoam panel to keep it snug in the case.
Overall cost sans battery was around $110. Cost could be reduced if I had bought some of the stuff in bulk versus buying only for 1 box.
Am all ears on constructive criticism and suggestions for improvements.
