Security Box for GradePro

Very durable.

The box itself is strong. The design could use improvement. Because the box is designed as two separate components, that means that both the front and back halves need to be locked separately for true security - the back half to the mounting surface and the front half to the back half. Because the back half is so deep, the camera must be removed from the box in order to service it, e.g. changing the memory card, replacing the batteries, accessing the menu, or turning the camera on and off. There is a pass-through that could allow the back half of the box to be easily cable-locked to a surface, but that pass-through also goes through the camera's body. However, that still leaves the front half unlocked. And using that pass-through means that both halves would need to be unlocked in order to remove the camera for servicing. In order to secure this camera, I ended up weaving stainless steel zip ties (ASIN B0C6CXXJWT) through the screw mounting holes on the back of the box and around the chain link fence wires. Then I used a cable lock (ASIN B010IBDS04) to secure the box to the fence. Finally, I inserted the camera, slid on the box's face, and secured the box's face to the box's back half with a small padlock (ASIN B00004Y8C7). If I had my druthers, I'd see this box designed with a front-to-rear pass-through for a cable lock that did not engage the camera's body. That would allow the box to be unlocked with a single key for camera removal while servicing. Alternatively, I'd see this box designed with a shallower back half and a hinged front half. That would allow the camera to be serviced while the door was open and the camera was still locked inside the box via the side-to-side pass-through. But as it is, the box is usable, and the security it provides is welcome.

For A60 Cam. Very tight tolerences for cam to fit inside. Had to trim top rings off the back of my cams to fit inside box. (where snakable cable would normally go through. I use snakable cabe to lock box to tree but dont like it going through back of cam, I just put a lock on box itself.
