Questions & Answers

Lori S : Is this size permitted as carry on? and how many lenses and camera bodies can it hold.ANDREW R : This unit will likely exceed the acceptable carry-on dimensions for most air carriers, however I would inquire with your chosen carrier to confirm (allowances vary from carrier to carrier). Specific fit is up to the end user as this unit contains Pick-N-Pluck Foam which allows for custom fitting to a variety of equipment. Exterior Dimensions (LxWxD) 28.87 x 16.77 x 9.12" (73.3 x 42.6 x 23.2cm) Interior Dimensions (LxWxD) 26.00 x 14.00 x 8.38" (66 x 35.6 x 21.3cm)
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?Joe A : durable material. very good quality at an affordable price. I recommend!

Its exactly what I needed, just wish it had wheels. The design & construction is great and the lower weight is ideal

NO WHEELS or HANDLE

NOTE: THIS CASE DOES NOT HAVE HANDLE OR WHEELS. I ordered the 1615, the next larger size with wheels and handle, but it was a little larger than I need and I figured it would be better to have a slightly smaller case to save a few pounds so I ordered the 1605. Only the 1615 and the carry on size one have wheels and handle, the rest are just cases. That being said, for what it is, the pelican air serise cases absolutely CANNOT be beat in terms of volume/lbs. That coupled with the excellent features we know from legacy cases make them the best cases, pound for pound and dollar for dollar on the market currently. I just wish they made one about the size of the 1605 w/ wheels and handle.

Wow, much improved case, love the lighter weight.

When it comes to superior protection for your valuable electronics, the 1605 Air Case with Foam in Black stands out as the lightest premium protector case available. This innovative product, which is up to 40% lighter than other polymer cases, is a testament to the pioneering spirit of Pelican, a renowned brand with over 40 years of experience in designing and crafting influential protective cases.

The 1605 Air Case is part of Pelican's groundbreaking Air line, which redefines the future of protection by masterfully combining lightness with toughness. This remarkable balance is achieved through meticulous engineering that cuts weight without compromising durability.

The secret behind the strength and lightness of the 1605 Air Case lies in its construction. It's molded from the next generation of Pelican's lightweight HPX resin, a proprietary formula that rebounds without breaking. This unique material contributes to the case's resilience and longevity.

Furthermore, the case features honeycomb structural elements that are actually stronger than solid polymer material. These elements provide enhanced protection while maintaining a lightweight profile. The case also boasts super-stiff "full box" sections, which are engineered to create hollow parts. This innovative design approach reduces structural waste while preserving Pelican's legendary standards of strength.

In conclusion, the 1605 Air Case with Foam in Black is a testament to Pelican's commitment to innovation and quality. It's not just a protective case; it's a revolutionary product that combines lightness and strength in a way that redefines the future of protection.
