Hi,

I have a couple of large suitcase sized Pelican cases, the real thing. I am wondering how weather proof they might be? Have read suggestions they are not necessarily guaranteed to be submersible but at the same time outside is not quite that.

If suitable I would mount one outside.probably on one side of the tower to house switching, and other ground level tower mounted accessories.

They are not likely to see any other use, far too heavy and cumbersome for any regular transit jobs.

Short of putting one outside for a month and hosing it down regularly I don't have any info on their ability to prevent water ingress which I think might be the only concern here in HS. Possibly the longevity of the rubber seal.

Anyone tried this?

Martin, HS0ZED
