Product Description
Product Description
Pelican Protector Cases are made with Copolymer Polypropylene, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter that the completion. You can tell its a Pelican case by the distinctive "twin-ribbed" top surface. Stainless steel pins are used for hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are much easier to open.

From the Manufacturer
ANATOMY OF A PELICAN CASE
Ultimate Equipment Protection
For over 30 years Pelican has built a reputation for manufacturing the toughest cases in the world. As a matter of fact, we invented the category. Over these years we've seen our cases used for some fairly crazy activities...and important ones too.
Pelican Cases have been thrown out of helicopters in Iraq, floated through frigid fjords in Norway and rolled over by SUVs in Tanzania. With only a few scratches to show on the outside, contents inside are left unscathed. These are minor details for major bragging rights. And that is really what it's all about. Getting your gear from point A to point B in the condition it's meant to be in: intact and functional. Because it might contain a large format camera that will shoot next month's magazine cover or a heart defibrillator that could save a person's life, you can't put a price on it.
Stronger by Design
Pelican Cases are made with a proprietary combination of homo co-polymers, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter than a solid core wall. Stainless steel pins are used in hinges and handles.Watertight
The secret is the tongue and groove fit with a polymer o-ring acting as a waterproof seal.
Cool Under Pressure
Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve releases built-up air pressure while keeping water molecules out, resulting in a watertight case that is even easier to open.
Easy Roller
Stainless steel ball bearing wheels last longer and ride smoother. The nylon hub adjacent to the stainless steel is made to resist heat. The result is less wear and tear on the polyurethane wheel.
Double-Throw Latches
Stainless steel hasp protectors are a Pelican exclusive. The Double-Throw latches are smarter and easier to open: it's the classic "C" clamp design with a secondary movement that works like a pry bar to start the release and offers plenty of leverage to open with a light pull.
Nameplate
Custom engraved nameplates are available for a nominal fee.
Reinforced Padlock Protectors
Stainless steel reinforced padlock protectors provide added strength and extra security against cutting and theft.

Besides this 1650 being HUGE (I can fit my 1510 case inside with room left over), it still complies with all U.S. airlines check baggage size limits (by 2-inches!). However, I must say that this case is also pretty darn heavy just by itself at around 30 pounds (13.5 Kilos). So, keep this in mind because, even though physical size of the 1650 is fine for checked luggage, the WEIGHT requirements are around 50 pounds (22.5 Kilos). So, you only got less than 20 pounds (9 Kilos) before going over limit and getting charged extra!
I personally have loaded my 1650 with over 40 pounds (18 Kilos) of camera and lighting gear. All I can say is that I'm soooo glad for all the heavy duty handles in order to move this amount of weight around. And yet, once on its wheels, it's stupid easy to roll around fully loaded! The scary thing is, I have no doubt this 1650 can hold even more weight. Which would simply make it a two-person job lifting something that heavy.
So, with that said, how about I just copy/paste my review of the 1510 from last year?
I am completely blown away with the quality and features. This world would be a much better place if everything was made to this standard.
Although it's a little expensive (especially for the 1650 model), I feel I got well over 127.38% return from my investment and have ZERO regrets from finally being able to afford this size of Pelican case. I plan on this case being with me for the rest of my life.
Pros:
- Outstandingly durable; I would trust my life with this product (literally)!
- Large amount of space, and I mean a lot!
- Heavy duty handles and latches
- Lockable with metal-reinforced padlock holes
- EVERYTHING proof (wind, water, sand, dirt, snow, elephants, airport baggage handlers etc...)
- Quad roller wheels are easy, durable, stable, and low profile
- Collapsible handle for wheeling around
- Lifetime warranty
- Able to carry heavy loads
Cons:
- Wish logos (branding) were a little smaller and less noticeable. I ended up using some photography gaffers tape to cover them
I run a small video production company, and use these cases for storing and transporting almost all of my equipment, from camera bodies and lenses to microphones, monitors, and even a slate. The 1650 is a very large case, and held a large amount of equipment for me. As far as "constructing" the inside of the case with the pick-n-pluck foam, I took some advice from others on the web and used toothpicks to mark out the sizes of equipment before doing any actually plucking and picking.
One of the best decisions I've made with this case was ordering the Pelican 1659 Lid Organizer at the same time. I haven't installed lid organizers in the 1535 or 1500 yet, but after realizing how convenient it is to be able to throw my spare camera batteries, cords, and other miscellaneous pieces into the lid organizer (instead of a separate bag or backpack), it's something I plan on looking into.
Anyone who has experience any Pelican case can speak for how stellar the build quality is. These cases are clearly built to last and I never worry about storing several thousand dollars' worth of equipment in mine, especially when they can also be locked up. These cases are incredibly sturdy and built to make transportation easier, and the 1650 is no exception. It has two sets of double wheels on the bottom edge of the case as well as an extending handle that allows you to roll the case with ease - a definite need for this case since it's far too big and heavy to lift and carry anywhere.
This case is deep enough that it actually has 2 rows of pick-n-pluck foam instead of 1 row (which the 1535 and 1500 both have). I was able to take advantage of this depth with a few items, most notably the suction mount, slate, and rail system.
I've attached a picture to my review in order to get a better reference for just how big this case is & how much it can hold, and I'll break down the equipment inside now for those curious:
- Canon EOS 70D Digital SLR Camera
- Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital SLR Camera Body
- Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens
- Rokinon CV85M-C 85mm t/1.5 Lens
- Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera
- Aputure 7-Inch Digital Video LCD Monitor
- Matte Box
-LP-E8 Battery Chargers (2)
- Suction Cup Mount
-1/4" Mount Stand Thing
- Hot Shoe Stand (x2)
- AA/AAA Plastic Battery Storage Case/Organizer/Holder
- Clapboard with Color Sticks (9x11 inches)
- 160 LED CN-160 Video Light (x2)
- Opteka Follow Focus
- Opteka 15mm Rod System
I was able to fit a ton of stuff in the lid organizer as well, mostly extra batteries, a power strip, a sunshade for the monitor, pens/dry erase markers, gaffer's tape, cords, etc.
If so, this is a perfect trunk for doing it. I have been traveling with mine for a few months now and it is great. Super sturdy, rugid and easy to pack.
My DBO practice dummy fits in it perfectly. When I am teaching a class in outlining, it is a simple matter to unpack, throw the dummy randomly on the floor, pull out the tape or chalk and start outlining.
Classes are also impressed how easily the dummy goes back in the box.
When I fly, the 1650 passes for a standard luggage even though it is 2 inches over the combined length x height x width measurements. It also has a super sturdy handle for rolling around in he airport, recessed wheels that the luggage handlers can't get hold of to rip off and is built like a tank.
I highly recomend the Pelican 1650 for you travel needs.
Ohhhhhh,,,,,,, It is also water tight if you happen to be that coroner I mentioned (make sure to flush it out regularly, especially if you want to haul just stuff later)

安心できる耐久性、頑丈さで、初めからウレタンのクッションが入っているので、直ぐに使用できます。
難点としては、大きいサイズなので置場所にこまるくらいです。
重量に関してもそこまで重くなくキャスターが着いているので平地では難なく持ち運びは出来ます。
ただ、長い階段の上り降りは女性の方にはキツイと思います。
