Transporting Flashlights

What do most of you transport your lights in (Otter Boxes, Pelican case with pick & pluck foam)? I need something large enough to carry a e1e, e2e, c2, c3, z2, z3, g2z, g2's, e2e-cj, c2-cj, L4, m2, m3, m4, m6, 6p to shows? Any suggestions? I don't want to throw them in a bag or box where they can bang each other and damage them.

They are all Pelican except the last one and they all are using Pick&Pluck.

I have just bought a Pelicase 1450:

It is really looking stylish /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Although,... not all my SureFires fit in there /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

Brightguy sells Pelican cases, I've got the small ones, 1010, 1040, 1060. There may be better prices, but it's a few bucks and Greg knows what he sells.

I bought the 1010 to protect a PT Aurora. Definately should go with the Pelican cases for shows, you have to impress the customers. Especially since you want to keep the display models pristine.

Where did you guys buy the cases from?

More importantly, can we expect to buy them from Bulldog at some future date? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I hadn't really thought about it, but I bought a rifle case from a gun shop that could hold quite a few lights, maybe your entire show inventory.

eppes.com has the best prices on pelican cases that I found. I've bought several from them with no problems and quick shipment.

I've been using a camera case with elastic loops and I haven't had a problem with my smaller lights.

I've got a Pelican case enroute from Brightguy as of Monday morning for my growing collection. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

At my work they had a "silent auction" to raise money for charity. I wound up paying $2 for a make-up case that is like a minuture metal briefcase. I dumped out the "paints", and added a couple pieces of foam and - instand flashlight case! I'll have post a photo of this sometime.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
