I'm relatively new to the Netonix switches. I've deployed about 20. I'm looking for cost effective weatherproof enclosure for the WS-12-250-AC. Does anyone have a good recommendation?

Thanks!

Well depending on where you plan to put this you might want to make sure it is vented.

You can not put the switch in a SMALL closed environment, paint it black and have the sun beating on it 12 hours a day in the summer and not expect bad things to happen.

I would be looking to put some on the roof and on the side of a building here in Arizona.

Well it is easy to add vents to any box you decide on using

It's good to have a vent high and a vent low then you get natural circulation of air. The air in the box heats up and pushes out the top vent drawing in cooler air in the bottom vent.

Make sure the box is WHITE if not in a shaded area and you should be good.

Can anyone else recommend a box they have used successfully in the past (with vents) that isn't too expensive. I'm looking at $100 per enclosure or less if possible.
