Thing is I don't know if there exists a "box" that will
contain he battery yet allow USB and 12vdc "ports" to
be obtained from it?

Bottom line...does there exist a "box" that will hold a
heavy battery such as this yet maybe have internal
connections for USB charging ports and still allow hook
up of 12vdc car "trouble" lights for home lighting?


I suggest you make a box and put some cigarette lighter outlets in
it. You can get adapters for those that have usb 5 v outlets in
them. I have one that has 2 usb outlets. Make the top removeable so
you can connect your charger.
