Chauvet Color strip case

I use one of these for 2 of 3 ColorRails. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/AC210/

I use a spare speaker stand bag for the other. I made some padding for the stand-bag solution and can actually fit another in there. I wasn't sure about it when I picked up the additional 2 so went with the AC210 to be safe.

Both allow me to keep the brackets on.

So what do you all use to store or transport your color strips. I have one and have not figured out a good solution yet, other than a gun case. I was hoping to find something that I did not have to remove the brackets from the light.

Go to Lowes or home depot and buy PVC Pipe/Tube. Cut to fit and install end caps. Secure one of the caps with glue and leave the other end unglued as the top. Turn in the brackets to allow for a small as possible circumference. If you would like get someone to sew you a cloth case from a beach towel with one end open to be tightened by velcro or a drawstring. That will prevent the Colorstrip from scratching as you put it in and out of the PVC Tube. You can also go to a Box and ship store or Art Supply and buy a cardboard tube (Used for shipping Rolled Art). Secure/glue one end and that too can be used.

You can also buy specially made carrying and shipping tubes for blueprints, and artwork.
Some made of plastic, others with metal.
(surprised you didn't beat me to that one, Canute)

Of course, they are more expensive, too.

Read above!
 
I use a keyboard case for $100. Keep up to 4 long strip lights with brackets and cords. Assault rifle case from sporting goods store for up to 2 strip lights for $29.00 each.

The only concern that I would have regarding the Ariba bag 210 is of the potential for something to get broken or bent. I would try to find a hard-cover case or tube.

I store my Movers in a Flight Case. Each of my other lights are in a soft padded case (Soft Coolers purchased at Walmart) and stored in this. It holds 2 ADJ Profile Panels, 1 Chauvet Vue III, 2 Chauvet Slimpar 56, 1 ADJ Revo 4, 1 ADJ Micro Galaxian, 1 ADJ Jellydome, 1 ADJ Colorburst 8 (Similar to the Chauvet Colorstrips) Plus accessories, extension cords, remote controllers and cables. Best of all it is on wheels and very sturdy. You can sit on it (Reinforced ribbed lid) as it is just not a Tote.

But Houston neither of those is long enough to accommodate a single color strip.

Color strip is 38" and the Container is 39.5" so it will surely fit. Even longer if the Color strip is placed diagonally up/down or sideways/across.
 
Contact Ben Stowe (NLFX) for these"
