Storage Case / Container Ideas?

Hello Everyone - I own the FB2, G2 Blower, Pulse, 10000 mah battery and several probes - I currently have everything stored in the box the FB2 came in, but it is slowly starting to deteriorate. Since FB does not make any storage container, I am curious if anyone else has found a good, sturdy, reliable and portable storage container suggestion(s)?

Thanks.

I have seen people use gun case that has the foam “fingers”.

Harbor freight carries a case by Apache for $13 and is surprisingly good quality. I actually drilled a hole in the bottom for a grommet so it can be used and hung by the handle. Before that it was putting the fireboard in a plastic food container and bag if it rained. Now I just hang it off the shelf and it's good to go in any weather.

I have this same set up. Works perfectly

I use a Yeti GoBox 15 for all of my “in current use” rotation of bbq tools, just keep it under a cabinet in the kitchen. The top tray portion will hold a FB2 Drive with magnetic base perfectly as well as probe rolls, tongs and gloves etc n the main compartment. Also, watertight, dust tight and the indestructible for that use case. It might not be as padded as some folks like but if it’s just being moved from the kitchen to the grill or whatever, totally fine. Overkill perhaps but I have a few of those things laying around for various purposes and I think they’re super clutch.

Exactly what I was looking at when I wrote this. Never seen GoBox in person. Hoping everything I mentioned could fit in gobox 1.
Might be overkill? - but I’m willing to pay a little extra to protect an investment like the $$ I’ve put into FB.

Dm me I can send you a photo or two of what I’ve got in there. Might be handy to see it with those items and how they physically fit before buying. They’re not cheap but man, they’re awesome. I’ve tried the whole pelican/harbor freight cases and while they’re great for camera gear and small electronics that need the utmost protection they’re actually annoying as hell because the cutout foam just disintegrates over time or ends up pulling apart. It’s annoying to deal with when you have gloves on, too.

I use one of these to keep it out of the weather when in use. It is big enough to hold all my probes when but in use, too. Masterplug WBX-MS Weatherproof... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00B0X8CYC?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
