Another aspect is HOW to bring it. I'm sure getting a hard-case is best, but its so expensive. I was thinking about getting one of those backpacks that has the hard foam in it, and then my backpack can be my carry-on. That way I'll have the convenience of the backpack all the time and also can use it for the plane flight. What do you guys do?
I figured it shouldn't be too much of a problem. My only thing is I'm going to the Dominican Republic so idk if there's any troubles with taking it there

John, those cases don't have to be expensive, if you don't mind foregoing name-brand. This is the one I use with my kit and it's fantastic: http://www.mcmelectronics.com/produ...il&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=ConfirmEmail
Even has a place for luggage locks, should you feel the need whilst in travel. I'm thinking of picking up a second one for all my accessories and growing battery collection.
EDIT: Forgot I had an early image of it before I loaded it down with batteries and such.
That looks great, and is cheap! So just to be clear, you cut it to fit on your own? How would the case hold up as checked luggage do you think?
