Review on Pelican 1430 Camera Case With Foam (Orange) by Kevin Webb

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I wish there were more top loading options

As per design this product works great: light weight, durable, waterproof. My only problem is not with the Pelican 1430 but with the Pelican itself. I was looking for a top loading case to use as a hard case for my motorcycle (KLR650). The only options were 1430 and 1440. The 1430 is a bit small for my needs, but the 1440 is monstrous and weighs too much to use on a motorcycle. Pelican makes boxes of all sizes. If you want a suitcase style, but for top loading cars, these are the only two options. I want Pelican to release 1435.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • I'll add later
