Would this make a good battery box?

I am doing some research on battery boxes (for 2 6V) and thought that this might work well with some vents installed. I like the fact that it is light weight and I would have room for 4 if I wanted down the road. The dimensions are wrong on Amazon here are the correct ones.

Thanks for your input. Don.

Yes it would just fit with an inch to spare.

Thanks for the links:) I really like the looks of the torquelift ones but I am guessing they are very $$$$$. Anyone want to share the prices they have paid?

Should work fine, with proper venting.

I gonna guess that it probably isn't strong enough without some external bracing...After doing that, I'm not sure that another method such as the diamond plate boxes that some here have used may be a better way.
Keep in mind the weight of the 6 volters. And under dynamic conditions it can triple!!
