Hey Badfish. I was in the same situation about a month ago and I decided to go with the Trim Trekker over the Mini Trekker because of the storage difference. There's been a couple of threads on this....here's a good one... http://www.scubaboard.com/t43534.html . In that thread there's a pic of a Mini with all of a person's stuff in it, less a strobe setup. I plan on purchasing a strobe setup so I went with the larger Trim Trekker....Dee shows her "packing" of her Trim Trekker in the same thread(I think.) Also, I bought my Trim Trekker on Ebay for $60.00....can't beat that price, but I had to wait for the deal to come along. The quaility is outstanding with the Lowepro...can't go wrong with the brand. Hope this helps.

I like mine. In fact I bought a larger one that could also hold my laptop top but didn't like the bulk of it. so I went back to the little bugger. It's cram packed full but it carries everything I need. My laptop is carried seperately in his own case. Her's a photo of everything I get in it. Note my 5050 will be inside the housing and you can't see the tray in the photo but it's there.

I've been using the MiniTrekker but just bought the CompuTrekker so I can carry a laptop. Not sure I will carry it however. The Mini has worked very well.

I have the mini-trekker, but may be in trouble :icoeek: if I ever decide to buy a strobe.

There actually might be enough room, however, it looks like the trim trekker is the way to go, wish I had seen it before. :54:

My laptop fits in my padded regulator bag, to be carried on.
