Leaky Dewalt Touch Cases

[Acuratechva]

Recently discovered that all the valves leak on all 3 of my tough boxes. Then few weeks later i noticed that dewalt has done away with the valves....go figure.

Anyone try contacting dewalt for replacement? dont know how well they take care of their customers , but clearly this is an issue they know about.

Why would there be a valve on a toolbox?

I'm guessing he's talking about the drain valve on a cooler.

The Tough Cases seal so well that sometimes you need a valve to open or for extreme altitude changes.

Pressure equalization valve like on Pelican cases

Kind of overkill for the average user IMHO.
