JumpinJoe Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I was at BoatUS today and picked up an inexpensive neoprene case for my 60C. The cost was $6.99 and its made for cell phones (cellmate) but it fits like a glove. Good place to store my 60C so it does not get banged up when not in use or while being transported. http://www.chisco.com/cgi-bin/catalog/R30001.html Enjoy! Quote
+Volwrath Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 Can you give us a pic to see how it looks in the case? That case looks a little tight. Quote
JumpinJoe Posted March 7, 2004 Author Posted March 7, 2004 I took one with the "flap" open and one with it closed. Notice that the "flap" on my case is somewhat oval shaped. This allows it to close while leaving room for the antenna. The model in the catalog appears to be a bit different. The fit is like a glove. Because its neoprene it will stretch a bit. But it's not so tight that it makes access difficult. I like it quite a bit- just what I was looking for. So now when I am on the trail, I can hook it to my belt and leave it on (antenna is exposed so the unit will work as normal) and when I need to check my coordinates, I can easily remove it from the case. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthrea...5563#post685563 Quote
+Volwrath Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Exactly what I need. may have to pick one up. Thanks for the pictures! Quote
JumpinJoe Posted March 10, 2004 Author Posted March 10, 2004 Just a quick bump for all those just getting the new 60CS who may be looking for a great inexpensive neoprene case. Quote
+Volwrath Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 Is the R30001 the correct model #? Are you sure ?? Quote
JumpinJoe Posted March 10, 2004 Author Posted March 10, 2004 I have the tag here: 30001 Cellmate 93039 30001 But it may be last years model- the one on the web site looks different. Quote
+Shadow n Seqoui Posted March 10, 2004 Posted March 10, 2004 I ordered one and should be getting it tomorrow. With any luck the 60CS will be here Friday... I'll post back and let ya know if this one works. Quote
+Volwrath Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 Thought Id bump this so shadow doesnt forget to get back with us Quote
JumpinJoe Posted March 13, 2004 Author Posted March 13, 2004 I actually like the one in the catalog better than mine because mine does nto have the grip material on the sides. Quote
+Shadow n Seqoui Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 I didn't forget.... The case hasn't arrived yet...maybe tomorrow. (coming by USPS). However, the 60CS did make it here on time. Quote
+Shadow n Seqoui Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 Got the case in today… It’s the same one with the oval flap. Fits like a glove is right. The case I got in is way to tight to install/remove the 60C(S) while it’s on a belt. I needed 3 hands to do it. Maybe it will stretch out some??? If not, I'm going to get some elastic sewn into the sides, as I do like it. It is what I’ve been looking for. Thanks for posting the Find (link).. Quote
+Team BlackZ Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 I use the soft case that bought from Garmin. It works great. A little more money, but it works well. Garmin case Quote
mgabel Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 Does the 30001 Cellmate 93039 30001 work ok when the unit is on? Do buttons get pushed? I bought an accucase http://www.accucase.com/gps.html for my 60CS and it fits perfectly (size #1). But, when it is on, various buttons get pushed when it is in the case. [is there a "button lock" option? I did not see one] Quote
+Shadow n Seqoui Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 work ok when the unit is on? Do buttons get pushed? Yes, looks like buttons are being pushed when the unit is on. If only this case was about 1/8" wider.... Quote
