Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Got to Love the Pelican case I bought a few cases for myself to use on our 31' fishing boat. It gets wet and nasty out in the ocean. With a pelican case I know that whatever I put inside is safe and dry. I've given some away to friends and now need to buy more for myself! Rating: - Excellent Case I have 3 Pelican cases and if you want something protected, it is a good, but expensive way to go. Rating: - great protection for reasonable cost Great protection for delicate item(s). I got it for a GPS unit which has a big, vulnerable display screen. Of course, you can't expect a custom fit on the interior - but I got the closest size to the GPS unit and then used some leftover bubblewrap to keep the unit from slipping about inside the case. I choose a bright yellow color to make it easy to find in darker areas of the car or to standout anywhere it's placed. It's apparent that while you cannot drive over the case and expect protection, you CAN expect the case to survive well should moderately heavy items get stacked on top, or from other less-than-extreme abuse. A cheap insurance policy with only one premium. Rating: - Perfect Dry-Box. The Pelican series Dry-boxes are ideal for carrying anything you don't want to get wet. I used this particular box for Kayaking to take out my phone and point-and-shoot digital camera. The Panasonic Lumix LZ7 was a typical (not slim) pocket cam and my phones ranged in size. They always seemed to fit together in the box though with room to spare. The lanyard is *just* large enough to fit around the box so that you can loop it though and attach it to something (my kayak's webbing in my case). Two cautions though. If any moisture, from your wet hands, or just on accident while the top is open, gets in the dry box and you then shut it and have it in the sun it will become like a greenhouse/rain forest in there. I recommend the opaque top models so that this isn't an issue. The other caution: If you're in salt water and it becomes submerged then rinse the hinges with fresh water when you get back home or else they will rust. Even with rust on the hinges it still works though. Never ever ever had a drop of water enter the case while the top was latched shut. That's the point right? I'm buying a larger case since I've moved up to a better camera, I like the smaller boxes better by the way, but I'm going right back to Pelican. Keeps the water out, easy to use, long life, no wear... Rating: - Crush Proof...? I have the Pelican 1020 Micro-Case in Mossy Oak (No carabiner). Inner Dimensions: 5.31" x 3.56" x 1.68" Outer Dimensions: 6.37" x 4.75" x 2.12" These are the claims: * GREAT FOR RUGGED SPORTS - NOT FOR SWIMMING OR SUBMERGING * Water resistant, crushproof, and dust proof * Easy open latch * Rubber liner for extra protection doubles as o-ring seal * Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve - balances interior pressure, keeps water out * Stainless steel hardware * Carabiner * Lifetime Guarantee of Excellence * Available in clear with color liner or solid It's a good size. I haven't fully tested it, but I wondered about the "Crush Proof" claims so we drove a Chevy Lumina over it. Case and contents (various survival stuff including a lensatic compass) were undamaged. Pretty impressive. see more
