Travel with Kino Celeb at DVinfo.net

Looking at getting a pair of Celebs for a travel kit. Has anyone used the Porta Brace case made specifically for them? These would need to survive air travel. I'd be very leery if there were tubes to break, but LED's are typically fairy tough.

Any thoughts?

Phillip,

If you check your lights in that bag they wont survive. I have a lot of Porta Brace gear. Including one of their big cargo cases for air travel. It is kind of a combination soft/hard case. Even though it did protect my gear well enough virtually every zipper on it is blown out or ripped from air travel handling.

They are lights. A hard pelican case is the only way to go.

Kind Regards,

Steve
