Yes,so many bags I found that would have been otherwise fitting and about the proper shape were just exactly 32cm long and I think if thats their outside length,it may be too short.
With this one you have at least compartments for extra batteries etc…
Ordered two of the cases, this is the one from the 4th link in OP. Cheaply made, padded only on one side, way too big. The water bottle inside the case is .5 inch smaller in diameter than the GT and .5 inch shorter.
This is the case in the 1st link in OP. Not sure if the GT will fit. This water bottle is only .5 inch smaller and it’s a snug fit. It will be tight if it does fit the GT.
I have a pair of super thick winter boot socks and I think the GT will fit nicely. It will provide enough protection to avoid little dings and scratches to the lens without being too bulky.
I don’t think adsums pack is padded, but I like the concept. WJs idea isn’t really a carry case, but put both ideas together, now I really like that! Maybe a piece of closed cell foam cut to fit the bottom to protect the lens (or will the lens be up?).
Or for the hardware store look, a piece of PVC pipe with closed cell foam inside. One end capped and glued the other with a screw on end. No doubt something could be rigged for a sling. It would be bombproof. It would also turn a 3# light into a 6# light. So maybe not so practical unless one is going into a combat zone and has transport (or is car camping).
I ordered that sling backpack in black and was planning to carry GT lens up.That thick top should offer enough lens protection.For extra padding in a case like this I usually use some extra gloves or some other soft stuff at the bottom of the pack.
Dimensions to the best of my knowledge are roughly….
320mm in length (12.6 inches)
134mm in diameter at the head (5.3 inches)
With those dimensions I have been looking at padded camera lens cases. I am after a well padded case, but not sure I want the bulk of a hard case. With a light of this caliber and cost, plus the batteries, I am not going to be overly cheap about protecting it in storage.
~$40 and near perfect fit
~$35 and a little on the big side.
Also a plus for me is the loop on the top/back of these. I can hang it in the back of my cabinet where all my flashlight/electronics stuff goes. Easy to grab when desired, but near impossible to accidentally knock over/out of the cabinet.
Harbor Freight has 25% discount coupon running until 12/10/2017
I haven’t the opportunity to put my hands on these yet, but being familiar with Harbor Freight I can’t expect to be exactly like the “Pelican Case”
These cases at the price point with coupon , appear to be a deal.
Another good option would be this case, i like how u have dividers so that u can make it a tight fir for the GT and any other accessory’s, and maybe on top where the tools go i can put my Cells ??? they do offer a smaller size but from the pics i cant tell if it has the dividers
I bought the one from harbor freight it has a spare inch and half lengthwise on both sides and an inch in height. So it should fit snugly, it’s made very well considering the price.
