    THE Brinsea Octagon 20 Eco Thread; Hatches, etc. (PICS)

    Yes it looks to big for overhead. My checked in luggage is limited to 10" deep. Could go maybe 11" if the brinsea box is durable. Anyone with a box they could measure? Need to know the smallest dimension.

    What is the size of the eco 20 shipping BOX? Maybe someone has one laying around. Need to determine if the box will fit in my airline luggage. Can get dimensions from Brinsea but not sure they are the actual box. Thanks
