Custom/Hybrid Waterproof Container

[Citizen]

Working on a custom little electronics thing that I need to keep dry inside my jetski. Ideally I need a 3" x 3" x 1" IP68 clear box. The closest I have found is a small Fly Box that's 4" x 3" x 1.5".

Also need to run 4 small gauge wires out of the box, trying to figure out the best solution for a waterproof bulkhead fitting on that small of a space.

Any ideas or thoughts are appreciated!

I like these ampseal connectors, they are pretty easy to work with.

They have smaller versions as well, those are 14 pin.

Box will need to house a 2" x 3" circuit board

What is it for ?
im also working on a unit, that can log height and G force with a arduino. A bit like the kite surfers "Woo".

Ooo that would do the trick, wasn't able to find anything quite that small stateside. Working on a external BMS, so if my AG drops below 11v I cant over discharge it.

okai, if its just a BMS system, you might be able to just "pot" that ? with potting compound or epoxy resin? Unles you need to be able to open it.

Potting is an option i've considered, there is a display and some buttons for input, but once its set I shouldn't need to touch it again, clear epoxy so that you can read the display could be very doable and bulletproof.

Depending on the board layout they offer 90 degree terminals on those housing plugs for pcb boards.
