The Peli Air range increases to 10 models with the new 1507 case
The 1507 Deeper Case offers an ideal size for compact drones and electronic equipment
In 2016, Peli changed the game by introducing their Air case range which reduced the case weight by up to 40%. Today, they are extending the popular group to ten cases with the introduction of the 1507 Peli Air Case. This particular size (Interior: 38,5 x 28,9 x 21,6 cm / Exterior: 42,8 x 35,8 x 23,5 cm) is not available in either the Peli™ Protector or Peli™ Storm™ ranges and was developed to serve as the smallest size in the “deeper case” part of the Peli Air case range (1557, 1607, and 1637 Air cases – launched in 2017). The new case model offers users more versatility, portability and durability, in special for fitting compact drones, cameras and electronics.
The 1507 Peli Air case passes the same performance tests (impact, drop, submersion, high and low temperature) that Peli users have come to trust and is backed by the company’s legendary lifetime* guarantee of excellence.
To cut the weight in the case, Peli’s engineering team faced the challenge of building lightness into every facet of the design without compromising Peli’s renowned durability. By working with a team of materials scientists, Peli was able to construct cases that are the lightest protective cases on the market today.
The 1507 Peli Air case is available in four configurations:
- TrekPak™ – a completely new divider system with rigid, customizable panels and locking pins.
- Pick N Pluck™ foam – manually customisable cubed foam.
- Padded Dividers – newly redesigned with a fully-sewn tub, felt exterior and high-visibility yellow interior, making it easier to identify equipment.
- No Foam (empty) – allows a blank slate for custom interior solutions.
The case is available in Black, Orange, Silver and Yellow.

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.
