Review on Pelican 1400 Case Foam Black by Robert Dickinson

I bought this case a couple of years ago and wanted it to protect my electronics around or on the water. I'll admit the hull was solid, but the claim that the hull was "hermetic" was proven horribly wrong during a whitewater rafting trip I did a few days ago. While rafting down the Eel River, my friend and I went over a rapid that sank the Pelican Case for about three seconds. Was that more than enough time for the suitcase to flood and completely destroy my Nikon D7500, two new lenses, a GoPro battery and a $100 Nikon D7500 battery charger? In fact, this was the only real trip where I needed a suitcase to work with the functionality described. Instead, it destroyed over $1,000 worth of gear and would have destroyed more, but the GoPro Hero 4 I had in the box at the time of the incident had a *real* waterproof case that worked as advertised. This is my first time writing a review on Revain and I am really upset that this company claims to be trustworthy and consistent based on the "quality" and "durability" of these products. Really disappointing.
