How large is the handset bag? Would it be large enough for the Meg handset with VR3 combo on Ron's custom brackets?

Hi Patti-

There is a less expensive alternative that should work nicely for your situation.

For the last year I’ve been seeing very well made neoprene sleeve-type bags at several of the upscale big box stores- Meijer comes to mind and I think you’ve got them on the west coast. The bags are designed to carry a 750 ml bottle of wine and keep it chilled and unbroken. They cost around $10. The last time I saw one I actually thought about Ron’s device and how well a VR3-Meg handset combo would fit. If you can’t find one w/ drawstring, it would be easy enough to add.

For folks w/ unmodified handsets, Walmart sells a simple neoprene bag w/ draw string top intended to keep your 500 ml water bottle cold. Costs $2.99 and fits the Meg handset perfectly.
