I know several folks have asked for ideas about cases for the "naked"
W1 wattmeter. I recently acquired a Pelican 1040 MicroCase
(they are sold new on Ebay) and it works great to protect the
wattmeter during transport, etc. I mounted the BNC jacks on
the bottom of the board (and used elevated rear "feet" to keep the
unit level in use) and ordered the Pelican "Pick and Pluck"
foam insert along with the case - with proper picking and plucking,
hi hi you can fit the wattmeter right down into the Pelican case.
When closed,
the case cover applies a little pressure on the battery, but that
just serves to press the W1 down into the foam and keep it from
moving around.
