The Lost World: Jurassic Park - RV Electronics *UPDATED*

I spent a good deal of time trying to find the food containers seen in various images. Specifically, the one containing orange juice. It looks enough like Rubbermaid containers with flip-top lids that I think it is one, but nothing I found was an exact match. There are similar ones, but their tops tend to slope down, whereas this one looks horizontal all the way across the top. It's also hard to find ones with blue lids, and when you can find them, they are not the right style... So, either it's a rare version of a Rubbermaid container, or it isn't one at all. Sorry, I haven't been able to identify anything else.
 
The more I look at these devices, the more I realize just how small they are. Compared to the components around them, I'd say they're no more than 8" wide each, and maybe 7" tall?

I keep going back and forth between thinking they might be some type of data storage devices or some sort of battery/power box. Their style vaguely resembles a small battery enclosure positioned on it's side. :confused

Nevertheless, I still don't have a clue what they are.

I'm counting down the days until Jurassic Park and The Lost World are released in 4K. Then I'll have some higher resolution screenshots to analyze for more clues.
 
I believe I've finally identified the device that is mounted in the RV on the wall next to the large map of Isla Sorna. It's only seen briefly in the scene where Kelly walks through the trailers and looks at the map.

I didn't have much reference material to go on, but based on the small part of the device that is shown, I think I've figured it out.

It looks to me like a Gemini KM-707 rack mount audio mixer. The placement of the XLR jacks, knobs, and VU meter all look the same to me.

Here is a closeup screengrab taken from the 4k release of The Lost World. The higher resolution shows a little more detail, but I still don't know what these devices are. Do they look familiar to anyone?

I have no idea for sure, but they kinda look like either large rechargeable batteries in a charging rack, or some sort of old tape drive rack.

There's a logo there, but I can't identify it. No guarantees it's even real...
 
One thing I keep thinking, is just from a logical standpoint, the production designers would know that the RV would be full of lights and electronics and yet there would be scenes without any main engine or generator running, necessitating battery power. That's why I think a bank of batteries makes sense for what they might include in the set design. Trying to find vintage examples of RV or marine batteries or some kind of portable uninterrupted power supply hasn't turned anything up though.
 
Here is another closeup from the 4k version of the film that shows a better view of the logo on the lower right-hand section of the device(s). It looks like the logo is comprised of several colored bars with maybe a black number "1" on it. I still haven't identified the brand yet.

And here's a closeup of the text in the upper right-hand section of the device(s). It looks to me like the first word might be "DATA."

Cool! All this time I thought the triangle was the logo! I'll do some more fruitless looking. :)

I had thought the same thing. But the more I look at it the more it looks like it could be a number "1." Or at least something different than a triangle.
