Unidentified Battery Signal Lamp Box

Unidentified Battery Signal Lamp Box
Any help identifying this box would be appreciated. It has been suggested that it is no British or Commonwealth, but might be part of " illuminating apparatus for artillery? It might be fixed to a gun and have one light that clips to a telescopic sight to light up the graticule, and another to use as a torch so you can see what you're doing to set shell fuses, etc. "
It appears to have originally been divided into 3 compartments.

Geoff,
I have moved the images to BOCN via the image uploader, please try and use this in future as images hosted off site dissapear and make threads useless when this happens.
Regards Weasel.
