Storage cases and carrying solutions for camera sleds without disassembly

What the thread found

  • Hard cases like the Pelican Storm IM2950 can accommodate a sled with removable monitor when combined with customizable foam inserts.
  • The Pelican 1730 case works when the rear hinge pins are removed to allow the lid to open completely, enabling the sled to fit inside with batteries attached.
  • Custom soft cases can be tailored to fit a specific sled configuration and mounted directly on camera carts, designed to hold the sled with monitor folded back plus accessories.
  • Innerspace Cases and other manufacturers offer custom hard cases built to individual specifications for sled storage.
  • Custom foam inserts with Velcro backing allow repositionable padding inside cases to protect equipment during transport.

Depends on

  • Weight is a significant consideration when selecting storage cases for transport on truck shelves.
  • Some solutions require modifications to standard cases, such as removing hinge pins or folding equipment into specific positions.
  • Custom solutions like sewn soft cases represent a premium option with higher cost.
  • The thread does not provide comparative weight data or detailed pricing for most solutions beyond one estimate.
