I bought that same box, when I converted to 2 X GC2 batteries, on the mfg web site it is $53.25 , but no free shipping

I have noticed that since the battery tray only supports the perimeter of the box the bottom of the box, in the middle, is bulging a little and the batteries are pushed together and rubbing on each other.

I am thinking of adding either a 1/8" steel strap to support the middle or just dropping in a 1/8" steel plate to fill the whole thing in.
