  Here is what I use:

  http://www.aptika.com/ca/products/detail.asp?p=Nanuk-Case-945

   

  It is big enough for the mount, hand controller and other wires. 

   

  There is an option ($88.00) for a foam liner. But I bought a 4 X 8 sheet of 2" foam and spray glue and did it myself. That sheet cost $ 80.00 but I had lots left over for other projects.

  Hello everyone,

   

  I bought the above mount and would like to find an inexpensive way to protect it in a case. It comes in a box with Styrofoam. It is difficult to move around. Any suggestions on a good case for it preferably something with wheels?  

   

  Also, is there a way to carry and  protect the marine battery to power the telescope. It is hard to believe that that there isn't something to house the battery as well other than having it bounce around in the car.   

   

  Looking forward to your suggestions. 

   

  Joseph  Pipitone
