Comments about Pelican Pelican 1560 Watertight Hard Case with Cubed Foam Interior & Wheels - Black:

Four flights fully loaded (46Lbs), and still looks like new. My $250 Chicago Case toolbox which I replaced with this case looked like hell after the first trip. Should have bought this years ago. Only one gripe; the newer style articulated latches are easier to open, but I had one pop open on the baggage belt the first time out; I'd put a zip tie or a TSA compliant lock through the lock rings if you plan to fly with it.

Comments about Pelican Pelican 1560 Watertight Hard Case with Cubed Foam Interior & Wheels - Black:

This case not only survived long haul flights involving transfers as checked baggage, car trips and handling on a busy dive boat, it came back looking like brand new. Needless to say the housings and lighting units inside were snugly protected by the cubed foam. Definite peace of mind for the next trip.

Comments about Pelican Pelican 1560 Watertight Hard Case with Cubed Foam Interior & Wheels - Black:

This is a great case for a travelling diver who likes to take along an underwater video housing and light plus a compact digital camera housing with an external strobe and arm.

I was hoping that this might just be able to be snuck on as cabin baggage (who wants to check ANY camera gear as baggage) but as it can't I belive that my housings have the best available protection. It reminds me of my old Samsonite Oyster suitcase so I know this should give me 20 years of solid protection for my gear.
