Travel case for my shiny new Salvo

[hebails]

Hi All,
I sent over some of my hard earned pounds to the Lovely Phil & Amanda at that site that will continue to be a drain on my finances for as long as I am a diver (i.e for ever) and in return they sent me a shiny 10w Salvo with a focus head. Good deal I reckon.
I am thinking I would like a case to carry it around in that would also be big enough to include the charger as well.
Does anyone have a certain case they carry their own light in or can anyone recommend a decent hard case that will do the job?
I absolutely love my new light and I can't wait to get in the water this weekend in Portland

I use a Tescos Laptop and overnight bag for my Salvo, computer(s), MP3 player and camera bits. Fits is all nicely, was £12 and protects the lot.

I like the sound of this. Might have to pop round to the giant Tesco near me and investigate.
Does it come in "stealth black"?

[Woz]

Yep black is the only option. Plus instead of looking like a very expensive dive bag, your kit will look like a very expensive laptop instead.

Don't know if they still do them, though.

Look foreward to meeting you and your new toy on Sunday.

I have the same torch and use a Peli 1500 Case from Waterproof-Cases.co.uk

It is big enough to hold the torch, charger and a salvo rat jnr.

It comes with a foam kit which is made up of partly cut foam squares so you can make it suit the kit you put in. I went for this so i can be in the back of the van and even if the twins fall on it the case won't even have a mark on it......

If you want i can post pics when i get home

Looks bomb proof and as luck would have it they are on sale

I don't bother with a case; these things are almost bullet-proof.

The light just get chucked into my dive kit with all the rest of my stuff. The only concession I make to protecting it is one of those neoprene beer coolers cut to fit over the head as the bulb is the only thing that's really vulnerable and even that's pretty tough.

I've seen a few people just use a neoprene cover so it must be effective but I would rather be a little over protective of my new toy than wish I had bee a little over protective. Just a personal view but I think I am pretty clumsy and very likely to break anything that is breakable.
