Hello All,

I am looking to get a case for our Ion and our hopefully soon to be ordered Eos.  There were a couple of threads that I got some information from ...I am sending info to "Caravan Cases".  But I am wondering if anybody has cases that they'd like to brag on or things that they wish they would have thought of.  This is what I'd like to have:

• Case for Ion and one 2x20 wing
• keyboard / mouse
• Power cable / two little lites
• I'd like to keep it living in the bottom of the case but it'd have to be small enough so things can be *easily* plugged in.

Same thing for the EOS!

Thanks for any suggestions!

Pat

HI Pat, I had a Custom Case Made for My Ion w/ Room a 2 x 20 Wing in the Future,  The Two Touch Screens are bolted to the Platform in the Case, Under the Console is a 4u Double Wide Rack Space w/ Drawer for Combined Keyboard and Mouse, Iso Splitters, and a Drawer.   All wiring is Completely Hidden, , Just Plug the Case in (everything is wired to a Battery Back-Up, and Run Data to the Front of the ISO Splitters.

The screens Fold Flat, Drop Over Lid, with 3rd Lid for the Top Portion.

I love my Case, is Very effective and requires a 5 Minute Set-Up Time, The Case even Hold 5 Bases, 5 Short Uprights 4 Cross Bars and Drape to Mask the Console and case off during an event.  Its very heavy at about 300 lbs or so, so its a Two Person lift to raise to Operating Level.

Hope this Helps.  Please let me know if their are any more questions or comments!!

Thanks Aaron

Hey Pat,

I had a case designed through Olympic Case Company in Tampa for my demo consoles. They have the design, you just have to ask them for the ETC ION case. It was designed for the console, and a 2x20 (not connected), or with a block of foam a 2x10 (as pictured). There is space under the console for keyboard, mouse, manual, etc. The case also has 4" casters.

They are very good at customizing, so if you would like to make any changes, you just have to ask. The case with everything in it weighs 115 lbs.

When you order your EOS, you can order it with a case from ETC. 

Hope that helps.
