This is a utility box for holding 48 AA size batteries.
Key features:
- The batteries are conveniently spaced so they can be easily picked out of the tray.
- The tray and the lid are identical models. When mated face to face they become a complete box.
- The tray face includes tabs and sockets that align the two halves even when there are no batteries inside.
- The latches are held in place at their hinges by a springy retaining tab, which is integral of the tray body.
- The latches snap easily and positively to their open or closed position.
- The latches are recessed into the box sides so there are no protrusions to the box outline when it is closed and locked.
- When closed and locked, the box is strong and durable.
Printing notes:
The tray can be sliced with 15% infill. Don't skimp on the print resolution, it is necessary for accurately reproducing the detailed retaining tabs of the latches hinges.
The latches should be printed standing on their side with a raft base. Set the print temperature a little hotter than normal to ensure good layer adhesion.
