Hi,
This question is for JonnyMac. Is it ok to mount the Prop-1 inside a prop such as a CrateBeast where there will be alot of vibrations/noise/other electromechanical devices or would it be better to mount and encase outside the Halloween prop in an outdoor rated electical box?

It is fine to mount it inside your prop.  You may need to provide strain relief for you cables if the prop is going to move relative to the Prop-1.  You'll find that lots of folks have built crate-beast type props with all the electronics mounted inside.
