I would appreciate any advice on how to mount a circuit board etc. (battery ...) into a peli case without having to drill holes into the peli case in order to remain its waterproofnes. Thanks!

Best wishes,

Christian

Christian . If you want to mount the circuit board in the case use silicon cement and glue a wooden support to the case wall  . Then you can screw the circuit board to the wood . Use two pieces of wood so you don't interfere with the circuit underneeth the board . If it is going to be a problem to use the controlls ( pot meter  etc ) use magnetic couplings  .  Cornelius

Hello Cornelius, thank you for your message! So you think I should just glue some sort of mounting material e.g. wood, plastic etc. inside the case? Quite simple! I hadn't thought about it!  :Smiley Thanks!

Hi Christian,
Whenever I've done this I've made 4 "Stand Offs" from a length of Square section "Plexiglass" (Hobby store?).
About 15x15 mm and 10mm deep (or whatever size suits).
Bond them to the inside of the case with epoxy resin, drill a small pilot hole and fix the circuit board to them with self-tapping screws.
Pretty much what Cornelius said................

You can just hot glue it too

I don't think hot glue will work here . Maybe for a short time . What you need here is a chemical reaction between the two surfaces to be sure of a good bonding .  Just my silly idea .  Cornelius
