Peli Products Unveils 3 Sizes of Lightweight Peli™ Air Cases
Peli Products, the global leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance cases, have launched three new deeper cases in the re-engineered, up to 40% lighter, Peli™ Air Case line.
Since 1976, the classic Peli™ Protector Case™ has been the go-to protective case solution for millions of professionals and consumers worldwide. As a part of the innovative and lighter Peli™ Air case range, the three new cases, 1557, 1607 and 1637, continue Peli’s relentless challenge to offer users more versatility, portability and durability, especially for fitting drones and several camera bodies and lenses.
“Our engineering team consistently explores how to deliver innovative and meaningful new solutions,” said Piero Marigo, Peli Products EMEA Managing Director. “The Peli™ Air case line is a major transformation, designed to maintain Peli’s signature concept of high-performance durability while cutting the weight out.”
The entire Peli™ Air case line, constructed of lightweight, next-generation HPX™ resin, is available in nine travel-ready sizes, in both long and, now, deep options. With over 33 cm (13”) of depth available, the new cases provide room for fragile and valuable equipment, such as drones and cinema-grade cameras. Peli™ Air cases continue to be the gold-standard of premium equipment protection while remaining 40% lighter and now 45% deeper. All Peli™ Air cases are available in black, yellow, orange, and grey.
Available configurations offer the choice of four unique interior options to meet almost any performance needs:
- The TrekPak® Divider system (not available with 1607 or 1637), feature durable, waterproof, closed-cell foam, laminated to corrugated panels to provide a fully customisable and precise protection grid without wasting space.
- The Classic Pick N’ Pluck™ Foam offers a manually customisable solution for fast and simple protection with pre-scored foam to fit almost any equipment.
- The Padded Divider configuration includes infinitely customisable, protective, padded dividers with Velcro™ so users can change their equipment organisation scheme on a moment’s notice.
- The No Foam configuration allows a blank slate for custom interior solutions.
The new 1607 and 1637 cases have wheels, roll tested over 914 meters. The line’s newest three products all boast classic Peli case features including a watertight O-ring gasket, a crushproof and dustproof exterior, stainless steel hasp protectors, rubberized, over-moulded handles and proven tough double-throw latches. Each Peli™ Air Case meets the same performance tests (impact, drop, submersion and high and low temperatures). Peli™ Air cases are also backed by the company’s legendary lifetime guarantee of excellence (where applicable by law).

Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!

Dive Rite was founded in 1984 by technical divers and cave explorers with the goal to make the very best scuba diving equipment available. Gear that can be trusted on the most extreme dives and exceed expectations in any environment: reef, wreck, cave, or quarry.
The Nomad Ray is the product of years of design, development, field testing, and feedback from some of the world’s leading sidemount divers and instructors.
The Nomad Ray is available in black, blue, OD green, pink, or red. If you happen to find yourself in a tight spot, the Ray’s abrasion-resistant “skid plate” will have your back: providing wear protection exactly where it’s needed the most. SuperFabric® is a fast drying, highly durable, and slash-resistant material. The Nomad Ray Sidemount System is ready to perform in the toughest diving environments.
The Nomad Ray can be easily adjusted to comfortably fit all body types. The independently adjustable harness design can be quickly set up for any diver. Shoulder and waist webbing can be replaced independently if damaged or trimmed too short. The Nomad Ray uses a fast, tool-free bungee length adjustment system. Simply pull to the desired length, tie a single overhand knot, and tuck the excess into the integrated sleeve. A quick-adjust belly band with a custom moulded bungee hook keeps the wing wrapped snugly around the diver’s body.
A zipper on the inside of the Nomad Ray wing allows for access to three integrated weight pockets capable of holding up to five pounds of each of hard or soft weight.
