I may be wrong but I think you are ok with not having it in a box with the optima battery. We put a lot of them in custom car stereo installations without an aluminum box and never had any problems with them rusting out. A regular car battery tends to leak and corrode where the optimas dont (normally)

That looks great. My Bottle is where your fuel cell is. I was thinking about putting the battery over the right rear wheel.

why would it rust? its a jell cell battery not one that you put water in (if that has anything to do with it)
