Does anyone have any recommendations for a carrying case or tube, to insure it does not become damaged if transported in a backpack or laptop case?

I use a small PVC pipe wit a stopper at both ends it just should be big enough to fit the item bent.

I use a plastic toothpaste tube for mine, an eyeglass case would probably work too.

A pouch, probably. I usually carry mine on customer premises (think: industrial areas) and did not have any problems. Remind yourself to keep it away from dust, dirt and sand (if you are on a beach). There are no protective cases for this speaker, as far as I know.

I bought a hard case to keep it kept in when I travel out state. It's a little heavy but it shouldn't be a problem!

The tube works great for travel but it is not sturdy enough to risk shipping items in it.

Technically the answer is yes, however, there is zero protection for a laptop inside the bag. It is just one big compartment. I would not recommend it for carrying a computer.

The first thing I recommend is the Bluetooth attachment so you can eliminate the cord. It's over priced but a great convenience for "road warriors". The second thing I recommend is a separate carrying case. I was able to re-purpose an existing carry case designed for 13" laptops. It fits perfectly and protects really well.Paper and refills depending on workload and time away are the others. It is great for photos so if you want to give customers a "memory" of your time together then pack some photo paper also.

I don't carry it around because of its awkward shape. Its so light you certainly could, but awkward when I typically have my laptop, a gym bag, and a book bag. If your backpack is not stuffed you could probably do it!The back piece easily cones off which would make it less bulky for transport.

I've taken the Anker on several trips and just put in the same bag with my Acer Iconia. It received no special protection although it was inside a computer bag in the same pocket as the computer itself. Since the construction seems to be aluminum for the back and fairly solid keys it should do as well for rough treatment as most. Of course ruggedized keyboards might be a different story but ordinary people usually don't buy ruggedized stuff - I certainly don't.I'll mention that the form factor makes travel easy. It is very small and quite thin and light so it is not at all burdensome to carry. I've taken the Anker on several trips and just put in the same bag with my Acer Iconia.

I am about to find out this coming week since I will be checking it in along with my suitcase. However, to protect my mini guitar further, I am lining the inside of the gig bag with bubble wrap. Since the mini body is made of laminate it is supposed to be able to handle a lot of abuse.

Where can I find the carrying case? Can you give me any info on where to order it from? Thanks in advance.

I fly frequently and use a different brand of "TSA Friendly" backpack design. Not once (in the USA) have I been asked to take the computer out of the bag: OAK, SFO, PHX, TUS, ALB, PDX, LIH, JFK, SEA so far. I do have to remove it in Japan at NRT, but they apologize and everyone has to remove the laptop. Now that I have PreCheck I don't even have to unzip it and lay it out, the whole bag goes through.

I've never taken my Helix out of the bag for TSA security BUT, I have a T-Pass bag which opens to show the laptop in the bag. Generally speaking, I've had to take devices out (when carrying a non-T-Pass bag) if it has a keyboard and opens.

I've brought this backpacking on an overnight trip and I've brought this on many day hikes. I've never had it leak and I've stored it in a bag on its side with confidence.You should still be super careful about putting this next to a laptop. User error is the most common reason for issues with this bottle. But, the bottle can still be punctured or popped with a bunch of pressure if you fall or whatever.

I had clothes for a weekend trip and I put my laptop in there, it was just fine. Mine is a mac though so it doesn't weigh much.

I carry it with me in my laptop bag and have not had any trouble. The slide-on case is quite protective. I do also place it inside a neoprene laptop case just so I feel a bit safer :) I have had this screen now for over a year and REALLY like it. I have not had any problems other than once forgetting the connector cable--but I was able to pick one up at the store where I was traveling.

If you are referring to a satchel or carrying case/bag, that would be a no. It has a wrist strap which would be equivalent as far as portability but not protection. It is a simple item and I don't think a case makes much sense.

Typically, professionals carrying fragile equipment do the opposite of what you would think the do. Unless it's a musical instrument, a soft case is actually the way to go, and this model actually has a semi-hard shell. I would feel fine putting my telescope in this case as checked-in baggage.Just think about the packaging your telescope came in via the post office, UPS, or the like. This is clearly better. And if not, then use the original packaging instead.
