I need a nice case for carrying two Photogenic 320 lights, cables, PWs, and cords. Under $200 preferred. I've been looking at Pelican, but I'm open to suggestions. It needs to protect the strobes well (foam would be nice).

John,

I use the Pelican (I think it is the 1620 roller) for shipping my lights via plane, or UPS for destination shoots. I carry 3 AB's, cables, cords, etc with no problem, and throw TSA locks on it for when I check it. I am using the foam which I cut with a hot-knife.

Thanks, Warren. That's actually the one I was looking at, and it sounds like there's room for growth.

It's more than $200 but give Lightware Multi-format cases a look.
