These are even better than the Pelican !

Really well built. And the wheels are nice and roll better than the small ones used on other cases.

Great hard case for EQ6-R Pro telescope mount

I bought this as a travel case for my SkyWatcher EQ6-R Pro telescope mount. The dimensions are perfect with no room to spare. The mount is very heavy, so the wheels are nice. The latches and multiple handles are very sturdy and allow me to hoist it into the back of my SUV when I take my telescope out away from the city lights. I feel that the cost is a fair trade to protect my very large investment in the mount.

Huuuuuuuge but worth it.

The color is awesome and this thing is spacious. I can fit 3 x LED panels (2xDRACAST 500, 1xDRACAST 1000), my XPLOR 600, a cheetah soft box, 2xSB800, 5 sets of NPF batteries, 3 sets of AC power cables and adapted for the LEDs, 4 sets of eneloops, and still have space remaining. It’s bloody heavy but fits in my hatchback for on-location work when I need a big assortment of continuous and strobe lights.

Excellent product! Fast Service!

I have several Pelican cases of various sizes and configurations. They are all well built and durable. The 1620 is exceptionally well designed and the foam inserts are easy to customize.

I would buy, buy ,buy.....

I love this case, I wish I knew about the foam divider when I bought it. I want to get the 1510 quite a bit smaller but more can fit quite a bit, I can also use it as a carry on.
