Zarges boxes are a great lightweight storage option. I have 4 boxes that I use in my vehicles...2 x K420 mini-boxes and 2 x K420 maxi-boxes. The only "issue" was that items stored in them tend to make a bit of noise if the box is not packed completely full. To fix it, I cut up an old foam sleeping pad and lined the insides of the boxes. Nice and quiet.
>> I'm interested in the Zarges boxes and wonder how these fare in the elements? Will the K420 repel wind, rain, dust, snow, and bugs if left outside on the ground? (I don't need them to be totally waterpoof, mind, but if used as a larder, bug and dust proof would be important.) Also, how strong is the lid on the K420 - able to withstand stacking, sitting, standing, etc.? Yes, I realize the Pelican cases definately do all of that and a bit more, but I find their shape to be awkward and wonder if the squarer shape of the Zarges boxes would be more efficient for packing. Thx.
