So far, I would say that is a resounding "no".

  I bought some DDB cabinets decked out with A/C and a bunch of other goodies 
from a surplus seller a couple years ago for around $800. This is what Telecom 
Surplus used to specialize in, now days they are just another reseller. I think 
they buy them from the same place I got these and just mark them up a few 
hundred percent.

    I have a few projects coming up that will require some cabinets. After 
looking about I find that they are still rediculously expensive.  

    I am attempting to source them out of China at which I am having a decent 
degree of success. At the moment I am attempting to ensure that the Hitachi air 
conditioners are well supported here in the states.

    Dimensions internally are about 70Hx31Dx31W. Room outside the 19" 4 post 
for outlet strips and the like as you can tell. They would ship with a 48vdc 
power supply since those are required for the AC fan. Aux fan and LED light 
would also be 48VDC. It may be possible to change that to 24VDC if enough 
people had to have it that way.

    So far, an IP55 cabinet with 110VAC 1000 Watts AC for mounted, ground bus 
bar, heater, auxillary fan, at least 30 RU 19" rack, separate battery 
compartment (probably 12 to 15 inches tall) , and single access door. I am 
still working on making sure the breaker panel is Square D or breaker 
compatible. Some dry contract alarms will be available like door opening, high 
temp, HVAC failure. Nothing to exotic there. I have not specified an auxillary 
generator plug but I could.

    Looks like it will run me about $2500 landed if I buy a few dozen. I am 
still trying to figure out how I would take care of warranty issues but I 
believe I'll be able to work this out.

    Is anyone interested in taking a few at that price? Shipping is likely to 
cost upwards of $300 each depending on location of course.
