I used the plastic wrapper it came in.

I made a hole for the spindle and separate holes for the wires and glued the two halves of the plastic together. It costs nothing, does the job and is waterproof.

I've been using it for about 2 years and it's 5 amp as well.

I don't know if those boxes have an official name.
