Pelican air case for rEvo

[Wibble]

Has anyone taken the handle off of a Revo?

Will try it, but wonder if the nuts could be replaced with knurled knobs for quick disassembly. Would also shrink the Revo to fit in a smaller case…?

Waking up an old thread. Any updates on Pelican cases that can fit a Mini? Pics appreciated!

PeliCase is heavy at 8kg/18 pounds. Need to remove the Kent Tooling Mini stand and it fits nicely BUT weighs 25kg/55pounds all up.

Padding is foam tiles velcroed to the case.

Always put the lid on upside down if the scrubbers are empty/old/need replacing or if the unit isn’t built. Stops dickwittery!

That's genius!

Which Peli model do you have? I don't care about the weight as much as I care about the protection. (Just realized that Pelican and Peli is the same stuff, different branding. In US, it is Pelican. In EU - Peli).

What are your thoughts about Pelican being a theft magnet, compared with a hard-sided suitcase being anonymous?

I've used Storm Case and now Pelican Air as primary luggage for 15 years. I think of them as anti-theft cases as I can readily see their bright yellow bulkiness coming off the baggage carousel. Nobody moves them discreetly. I can see them easily at great distances.

As they are often perceived as tool cases, others have suggested dirtying them up, smudging with brownish yellowish stuff and labeling the "Property of Fusco Plumbing" and "sewer block cleaning kit".

We use Pelican Air 1607 cases for our micro units.

Micro with rEvo stand in a pelican air 1615 - fits well with room for a bailout reg or two

Post #14 explains why I bought the Peli Air "1637" case: 595h / 446w / 337d @ 6.9kg (no foam)

Note that the Pelicase is quite heavy, so the total comes to 26kg which attracts a surcharge/higher price when flying.

Love the Pelican 1607. I got one when they first came out and it has been all over the world and then some and still has not broken. I loved it some much I recently just bought a second one. Also just to confirm you can fit a JJ in the 1607 as well but you have to take the stand off (no big...
