I'm wondering...

Would it be better to have a super nice purpose build sexified case, with a fair bit of wasted space, or would it be better to use the case as a storage case, have your psu and charger in there, but also have tools, starter, laptop, and other stuff???

At 1am on a Saturday night/Sunday morning you're wondering about charger setups. Shouldn't you be out partying and trying to pick up some strange??

PS. Don't mind what I'm doing up at this time of the day looking at...... cough, cough, 'heli fourms'.....

 

Seriously though, if you try and jam too much gear into one case without properly securing everything you might find that things get damaged. You don't need an uber big case for a charger setup, just enough to get the job done. I have a charging box which also holds a few batteries, a TX case and tool box.

I did see a large case at Jaycar the other day that had wheels and a retractable handle built in, but for the reasons I've mentioned above I passed on purchasing it. It is cool though. ABS Instrument Rolling Case

 

Maybe I was at a party getting some strange

Mine is really basic, I have a couple of big batteries in the back of my red neck Cadillac too...

 

Here is my rolling charge station

 

Here's the one I just sold. Building a better one.

You can achieve both, but it gets cramped, gets mighty heavy & you have to be careful of airflow & cooling. The cooling is the critical part & the reason why most setups are power supply & chargers only.

Really nice setup @Radar I like the USB chargers and the light at the top for night stuff, very cool. Nice perspex too. I'm about to embark on building one myself. If it comes out 1/2 as good as yours I'd be pleased with myself. Cheers

Some of the charging cases on here are works of art. I normally just use my case as a carry box and put everything on the bench which is ok if you have a good bench but not so good if the benches are wet.

 

Yep, you're right. Bloody Radar built a cracker didn't he. There's been quite a few very flash cases on other forums, but they're all starting to look the same.
I'm building something different with some new ideas incorporated. Stay tuned dudelets.....
Must beat Radar, must beat Radar, must beat Radar...

@smakmeharder has one of the best setup's i have ever seen, I'm sure he will post his up for you

 

Ok smackers you've been outed, where's the photos!

I was inspired by Radar's charging setup and when I scored some old server PSU from work I thought I'd have a go. I'm going to cover the top with black Perspex and add some cooling fans...one day...maybe.
