I travel a bit and these cases provide a nice dry place to store important documents and electronics, especially ones I want to protect from normal humidity changes. I just throw in a couple of silica packets and don’t worry about anything inside.

It's a good case, however if you want top of the line cases you need a NANUK 945 or 950 case. That's what I use. Robert From Los Angeles

I was exposed to Pelican cases in the U.S. Navy. I don't think there is a finer case, in all sizes.
