Which JELCO Case Should I Purchase?

First, you need to determine what you are going to use the case for:

• Do you plan on taking your projector on domestic flights?
• Do you plan to ship it cross-country via UPS, FedEx or other common carrier?
• Are you travelling with it in the trunk of your car?  Or are you only  transporting it from office to office, classroom to classroom, or across a college campus?

If you plan on flying, you need to know that many airlines are implementing more stringent carry-on limits for domestic flights. These limits usually allow for 2 carry-on bags no larger than 45 linear inches, or 22" x 14" x 9" (length + width + height).

Some projectors are too large to meet the above limits, even without a carrying case. For these, JELCO recommends purchasing an ATA style case and having it checked (see below).  We NEVER recommend checking one of our Padded Travel Cases.

If you want to ship your equipment across the country through a common carrier like UPS or FedEx, or if your projector is too large for carry-on, you’ll want to use our ATA 300 cases. These cases are designed inside and out to handle the shocks and bumps which come with cross-country travel as well as rough handling by airport workers and automated handling equipment.  (Note:  With projectors getting smaller and smaller, many of our newer ATA shipping cases are small enough for carry-on!)

If you’re not planning on flying or shipping your equipment across the country, our Padded Travel Bags are perfect for transporting projectors in your own vehicle or around an office or college campus.
