RESEARCH-BASED PRODUCT FEATURE
Based on published manufacturer specifications. Gunfire Magazine has not physically tested this product for this article.
Small equipment is easy to lose inside a large bag. Pelican’s 1010 Micro Case provides a compact enclosure for items such as spare electronic accessories, with an interior that is much smaller than its exterior measurements might suggest.
Measure the space that holds the item
Pelican lists interior dimensions of 4.37 by 2.87 by 1.68 inches and exterior dimensions of 5.88 by 4.06 by 2.12 inches. The current description identifies a polycarbonate body, rubber liner, stainless hardware and a carabiner.
The product page states an IP67 test condition of submersion under one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. That defined condition should not become a promise of unlimited underwater use.
Organization is the practical subject
Our assessment is that a small case is most useful when its contents have a clear purpose and can be identified quickly. A protective box that fits the bag but not the item solves the wrong problem. Allow for connectors, protrusions and any included padding when checking the actual fit.
This preview concerns general accessories. It does not present the 1010 as a firearm security container, a safe or a substitute for secure storage.
Claims need a real example
Gunfire has not independently conducted a drop or immersion test on a 1010. The dimensions and rating here come from the current manufacturer page checked November 2, 2026. A later review should identify the exact version and contents before reporting protection results. Browse more accessory articles and product coverage.
