Nanuk 945 EMS

This is the first of several purchases. The quality, the ruggedness, and the color are precisely what I was looking for. Thank you for such a good product.

Rugged case

Good stuff!

I wanted to replace a soft case for my first aid stuff, since I’m always around water. Looks good, love the locks.

Purchased this case to replace an old waterproof case that did not fit in my truck camper bed due to a non-folding handle. Nanuk case fits perfectly. I have several Nanuk cases that all perform well.

I purchased the two small sizes, one to put in a vehicle, and one put it in the home, that way I could locate ready medical supplies, like Band-Aids headache medicine and other minor essentials, where they could be very quickly located and stored for a long period of time, should the need ever arise you want to be able to quickly find something that's still in good condition. These cases are rock solid, and I have no doubt those supplies will be there in the car if they're ever needed. Old Mercedes used to come with a kit like this in them.

Nanuk boxes are over achievers. I've asked a lot of each of the 15 i own, and they all perform flawlessly. Whether carrying and safeguarding camera equipment, serving as a first aid stash in remote areas, or transporting my favorite scotch to a friend's, I know the contents will be 100% secure. I will be buying more, I think I'm addicted to them (at least that's what my wife says).

Put together a first aid kit for housing in your ruck and this case fit the bill perfectly.

I picked this case over the various competition because 1) it's tall enough to fit a normal "drug store" size bottle of hydrogen peroxide (so many essential medical uses for humans and animals) standing upright; 2) if I am weakened due to an injury and/or illness and therefore need to get to medical supplies, the latches will be much easier to open/close than on other brands; 3) the real red color and white cross will let anyone with an iota of intelligence know that it has first aid items inside, in case I am not around or not able to tell them.

It is definitely water-tight and bouyant. I've stood on it, and it didn't deform. I genuinely believe it could survive falling off, say, a truck tailgate onto a hard surface and sliding down a hill with nary a scratch. Would it survive a fall from a 8 story building onto a hard surface? Probably not, but then, probably neither would the competitors, and realistically, if you are the sort of person who buys cases like these, you're not going to throw it out of a 8 story building.

I bought this to keep in the trunk of my car and filled it with medical supplies for cuts, bruises, infections and a torniquet in case I get in a bad car wreck.
