1
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:23,680
cool story guys the camera that Diesel's holding right now made it all the way

2
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:27,720
here to the show in a Pelican case which would have made this interview a lot

3
00:00:25,439 --> 00:00:31,240
more Awkward if it hadn't arrived in one piece absolutely so we're here at the

4
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:35,520
pel Booth where they're showing off some products that are available some products that are not yet available and

5
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,000
I'd like you to tell us a little bit about the Vault series which comes in a

6
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:46,320
Galaxy S3 version and an iPhone 5 version and these things look frakin

7
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:50,800
rugged yeah absolutely uh this is the iPhone 5 version this is our vault

8
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:55,920
series of mobile line protection um this is our highest level of protection that

9
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,480
we've got um as you can see here it is

10
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,280
uh aluminum grade protection on the front as well as a plastic uh body on

11
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:07,680
the back these are actually held together by um uh stainless steel uh

12
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:09,280
aircraft grade steel uh screws um and in

13
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,200
in between here we've got a rubber gasket as well so this is going to keep

14
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:18,200
all the dirt and the dust um out from inside uh inside the case um in addition

15
00:01:15,759 --> 00:01:23,200
we've went to the extra level and uh added some water resistancy uh to this

16
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:27,720
case by adding a Vortex membrane to where all the speakers uh ports are um

17
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:33,000
you can still pop these hold on these still pop down

18
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:36,759
here one that's open already on the you still get full access to uh all the

19
00:01:35,399 --> 00:01:41,000
ports as well and it's still fully functional while it's on on as well um

20
00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:44,840
in addition we've added Gorilla Glass to the camera ports uh for that added

21
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:50,360
protection uh this is actually going to be available later this spring um and we

22
00:01:47,399 --> 00:01:53,719
uh we'll be retailing for around $75 80 okay but that's not the only mobile

23
00:01:51,759 --> 00:01:58,560
products you have on display here there's an iPad Mini model I asked to

24
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:01,799
see the iPad regular size model so now you can have that protection you can get

25
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:06,240
for your camera so what is this Crush proof is this one waterproof yes this is

26
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:11,760
actually uh Crush proof dust proof and watertight uh this is actually rated up

27
00:02:08,399 --> 00:02:13,599
to 3 ft of water uh for 30 minutes uh

28
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:17,879
this is our hardback i175 um and as you can see uh it's

29
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:23,680
actually like a mobile workstation for your iPad it's got a built-in kickstand

30
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:25,720
as well as a nice inlay for a uh for a

31
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:30,120
portable keyboard as well as inside here you can keep all of your uh cords and

32
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:36,599
cables and other iPad accessories right here inside um and this folds up um

33
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:40,000
nicely and uh and also includes a shoulder strap so you can carry it with

34
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:45,519
you uh this is currently available on Pelican prog gear.com and retails for

35
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,440
around uh $90 all right last thing guys

36
00:02:45,519 --> 00:02:52,959
they've actually got a lineup of backpacks now so if you wanted to

37
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:57,360
transport things with a Pelican case but you don't actually want to sort of lug

38
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:02,400
it around behind you at a trade show say for example um this guy guy right here

39
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,280
is a regular backpack so you can put stuff here stuff here stuff in all the

40
00:03:04,239 --> 00:03:09,799
pouches and all that good stuff but show us the Pelican case that's integrated

41
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:14,080
absolutely so what we've done is we've integrated our Pelican protective cases

42
00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:17,480
right into the backpack um so now it's the first Pelican case that you can

43
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:22,040
actually wear and so right here this is our laptop series and as you can see

44
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:25,840
we've integrated the plastic design case um this is completely Crush proof dust

45
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:30,280
proof and watertight uh like our hardback cases this will hold up to a

46
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:33,400
15in laptop uh this latches

47
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,280
closes and as uh Linus was saying it's

48
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,879
got a multitude of different Pockets uh We've also integrated a hard plastic

49
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:45,120
shell on the front uh which is great for carrying a tablet um nice and safely uh

50
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:47,280
transportable uh it's got a full-size um

51
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:50,519
pouch here for additional laptops and and other storage I'd like to show you

52
00:03:49,239 --> 00:03:55,120
guys something that really stood out to me about it and that is the here can I

53
00:03:52,799 --> 00:04:00,000
just grab this that is the spacers inside here check out the density of the

54
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:04,560
foam there so you can you can reposition in case your laptop's a little bit

55
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:07,239
smaller so it doesn't move around okay

56
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:11,840
well thank you one more thing okay there's more uh this is a very ergonomic

57
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,120
design on the back it's soft it's not going to be heavy uh for when you got

58
00:04:13,519 --> 00:04:19,959
this loaded down it's very loadbearing uh so it's very comfortable to Lug

59
00:04:17,239 --> 00:04:23,800
around with you um and uh for travel and everything he actually showed us this

60
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:29,199
before it's about this it's about this thick between the plastic back and the

61
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:33,280
uh here we go and the padded part itself so check check that out so there's

62
00:04:30,840 --> 00:04:37,400
actually a hard shell on the inside you see how we've riveted this all in here

63
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:41,479
here's the hard shell to see the thickness check out the thickness here

64
00:04:39,039 --> 00:04:46,400
guys so here I'll do my I'll do my traditional iPhone size comparison so

65
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:51,120
you guys know exactly how thick that is yep and these are currently available

66
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:57,560
right now on Pelican prog gear.com here let me uh let me just put this baby on

67
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:59,000
so here we go I haven't actually tried

68
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,520
it yet so this is going to be this is going to be either an indictment of the

69
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:08,199
product or I'm going to be or I'm going to be super impressed I mean the thing about a rigid backpack any any hiking

70
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:12,160
backpack is always going to have something like a metal spine in it so

71
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,759
that it doesn't shift around so that it doesn't uh poke through at you so

72
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:18,880
there's actually an advantage inherently to having that hard plastic shell

73
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:24,720
regardless of whether you want to keep a laptop or something else in your backpack and now I can feel that it's a

74
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:29,080
little bit rigid however you can see that because it's so much thicker here

75
00:05:27,319 --> 00:05:33,360
it actually fits into the small of your back right up against your spine so

76
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,520
there's kind of a uh there's kind of a a popped out piece right there that fits

77
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:41,160
right into the small of your back making it more comfortable than just wearing a

78
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:45,280
softback backpack thank you so much this has been great and uh guys I hope you
