After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

Lamptron Case Handle (CH2) Review
Author: Dennis Garcia
Published: Monday, June 23, 2008
Introduction
One of the hardest things about attending a LAN Party is hauling all of your stuff around. For those lucky enough to own a carrying strap the process is pretty simple just install the 3 point harness and away you go. The only down side is those straps are not designed to be a permanent fixture on your case but rather a temporary solution to a common problem.
An alternative would be to install a set of carrying handles, and of course the hardware store special just won’t do. So we’ll look towards the modding community for a stylish solution and Lamptron has just the thing.

Construction
The Lamptron Case Handles 2 are CNC machined from a billet aluminum block and have a thickness of 3/4".
Overall dimensions:170mm x 54.7mm x 55mm which roughly translates to 6.75” x 2” x 2”
The handles are sold in pairs complete with stainless steel hardware and your choice of black anodized or polished aluminum.

We’ve always enjoyed the contrast polished metal against a dark painted surface so for this review we’ll simply show you how easy the case handles are to install and what they look like in their finished form.
