    Great video! I just got my Pelican 1535 carry on air travel!! It's the updated model with the TSA latches. It is the perfect carry-on case!

    I have one I've been using for about a year and a half in professional travel (Airline Pilot). They are tough as nails but the wheels are garbage. Though it's still rolling, it will wake the dead with how noisy they are and, they are definitely at the end of their lives. I'm in the process to replace/upgrade wheels but matching the size on wheels, axles, length, etc. is proving difficult. I'm awaiting the 3rd set.

    first thought those were scuffs and scratches on your brand new pelican case… but then i noticed it was cat hair. 😂 thanks for the video. that is something you can’t get from a spec sheet.

    I have the 1626 AIR. It's 1.5" shorter and 1.4" narrower than the 1615 AIR, but 2.4" deeper, with 8% more capacity while remaining within airline limits for checked luggage, and being long enough to fit my RK3 fins.
    Unless you need the extra height and width, you want one of the non-black versions, or need the dividers or foam, I think the 1626 is the better option.
    I am thinking about getting the 1615 TRVL version though. I'd like to have the ability to lock my case, I like the lid organizer, and the Indigo color is pretty snazzy.

    • @iBJanky
      @iBJanky  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The 1626 looks nice too! You really can’t wrong with either one. I like 1615 because they fit all my scuba gear perfectly, especially my Mares fins which are longer than the RK3s.
      I liked the TRVL version too, but I didn’t need the lid organizer. I ended up buying some third party TSA latches from Amazon instead. I installed them myself and they work perfect. I saved myself quite a bit of money by buying and installing the locking latches myself. I see myself using this case for many years to come.
      Thanks for watching and safe travels! 😎👍🏼

    what about the TSA locking? how do you secure this luggage?

    • @iBJanky
      @iBJanky  4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      You can use TSA approved padlocks. There are two places on the lid where you can secure the locks. 😎👍🏼

    Is the 1615 too big for domestic checked bag restrictions?
    For example, United Airlines allows L"+W"+D"=62"
    Anything larger and they charge extra.

    • @iBJanky
      @iBJanky  27 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The 1615 is exactly 62” so it will be fine. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching! 😎👍🏼

    This case is too big for United. "The maximum size of a checked bag can be 30 in. x 20 in. x 12 in. (76 cm. x 51 cm. x 30 cm.), including handles and wheels."
