Gepe Card Safe Extreme Watertight Case - for Four Compact Flash (CF), Smart Media (SM), Memory Stick (MS), Multi Media (MMC) or Secure Digital Cards (Onyx Gray)
The Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Onyx Gray) is a watertight case made to store memory cards such as Compact Flash, Smart Media, Memory Stick, MMC or SD cards. Inside, the memory cards are protected against humidity and dust, as well as electrostatic charge. Four compartments offer space for several different memory cards, and grip each of them tightly.
The Card Safe Extreme uses insert material to protect the memory cards from being erased or damaged due to electrostatic effects. The card holder also has special viewing windows so you are able to see which space is taken by which card, even if the box is closed. This makes the organization of your cards easier. In addition, it is weatherproofed and it floats in water, and the design of the lock makes using the Card Safe a snap, even when wearing gloves.
The Card Safe Extreme has been tested and certified as European IPX-7, which means it is protected against immersion in water (immersion for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter).

This has to be the best way to securely store your memory cards. It seals very tight, holds CF cards snug in the rubber padding, and looks as if it were bomb proof. I now own two of these, and recommend them to anyone who asks. When it comes to protecting your memory cards, especially those that are full, there is no substitute as far as I am concerned. Easily worth the [$].My only trouble with them, they tend to make airport security folks a little nervous, they display funny on x-ray scanners at airports and security screening points.

It seems sturdy but it is so difficult to remove a compact flash card once you place it in a slot that I won't be using this. I need a tool to wedge under the edge of a CFC in order to remove it. Good idea but impractical in real use.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
I can not seem to find a way to fault this. If you have it kept in your pocket, you may have a bit of an issue with the bulkiness. I keep it in my camera bag, and in the short time I have had it, I am yet to find a reason to dislike it. Some white dots and stretch marks have come and gone, but I do not know why. It may have something to do with travelling with it on an aeroplane, but they appear to scratch off. Simply, an excellent product.

this is a nice little thing to have, keeps your cards safe and dry.
I like that it has real hinges as opposed to folded plastic which can tear apart.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
Very durable. I haven't, nor do I plan to, tested water resistance, but I'm quite happy with the protection this provides my cards.
I do wish that there was a similar model for CF cards only as that would greatly reduce the thickness of the card safe. That being said, this isn't too large and it's not a problem to fit it into any of my bags along with my other accessories.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
I am very happy I got this for my CF cards. For me its very important to have equipment that I can count on, very durable and of good quality. On that Gepe delivers with this product.
To begin with it was very hard pulling the CF cards out of the box, after some time, one of my CF cards split open (the plastic caring). You need to be careful to not strain your cards to much while the card holder is new and stiff.
I have 3 of these cases and will never go back to my old ways of using the card cases you get your cards in from manufacturer again.

Love the construction on this one. It's super tight and safe. Did a test underwater and worked perfect. I just submerged it long enough and found no leaks or anything. Good buy for the price.
