The Live Luggage PA Series Suitcase takes the effort out of travel, offering a high-tech taste of old fashioned decadence. The luxury travel experience has caught up with the 21st century at last, with the Live Luggage PA Series Suitcase. It takes the strain out of your journey with power assisted features that help make luggage feel almost weightless, and also provides strong security and free baggage tracking.
The PA Series Suitcase has an innovative, extendable �Anti Gravity� handle that pivots away from the case. This is fully adjustable and ensures that � no matter how tall you are � 85% of the luggage weight is balanced over the suitcase wheels. On smooth, level surfaces like airport concourses, this means that minimal effort is required to pull the case and it won�t scuff your heels.
For more challenging conditions, like going uphill or across rougher surfaces, power is applied through strong and reliable �Pancake Motors� built into each wheel. Thanks to sensors in the Anti Gravity handle and an intelligent torque control system, the suitcase provides exactly the right amount of power to compensate the wheels in any situation. This means that your PA Series Suitcase should still feel equally light when going up inclines or over bumpy ground, and can even keep up if you need to run.
The wheels are powered by a rechargeable 12v NiMH (Nickel Metal hydride) battery that�s as small as a mobile phone. Because the suitcase knows how much power is needed in any situation, it can provide exactly that and no more, making it highly efficient and enabling a distance range of as much as 1.5 miles. Batteries can be recharged overnight and there is space to store a spare for those really long journeys. Plus, if you�re caught without power, you can simply disable the motors for a suitcase that�s still easier to pull than traditional designs.
It�s well made too. Along with lightweight, super strong stress frame technology, the body of the suitcase is made from a special, tough PC ABS material, most often seen in car bumpers. There are no vulnerable zips and the case slots together securely, with a three way locking system. The master lock is a TSA approved (Transportation Security Administration) combination lock that allows you to set your own PIN number, and there are two further latches to keep the case shut tight. All this makes the PA Series Suitcase one of the world�s most secure suitcases.
Plus, included free with every case is Live Locator, a free luggage tracking service. Every PA Series Suitcase is tagged with a unique, laser etched serial number. In the event of it going astray, a text message and email can be sent to you with the details of its location. It even comes with a built-in umbrella to ensure you don�t get caught out by the rain!
If you�re a frequent traveller who needs less stress and absolutely can�t afford to lose baggage, or if you simply don�t want to risk injury with heavy bags, the Live Luggage PA Series Suitcase may be just the touch of luxury you�re looking for. And at 700 pounds including VAT, it�s certainly one you can afford.
