Shinza ZeroShock question

#1 Post by bijou » Wed Jun 21, 2006 5:08 pm

Has anyone tried the 11 inch ZeroShock with the X60 or X60s? The quoted inside dimensions of the 11 inch sleeve seem to be almost exactly the same as the dimensions of the X60s so I'm not sure whether it would be better to get a really tight fit or go with the somewhat larger 12 inch sleeve. I use the slim battery. Thanks for any responses.

I heard that the 12 inche sleeves are loose unless you use the 8-cell battery, in which case they are a nice, snug, fit.
Past: T42, T60
Present: X61s, Y450
Future: X302?

I have the 12" Shinza and it is a great fit for my x60s with 8-cell battery (just a little too wide). I have also played with the 11" sleeve and it fit my computer without the battery so it should fit yours w/ a 4-cell just fine. Enjoy, they're great cases.

My X60s with the 4-cell battery fits in the 11" Shinza. It is a VERY tight fit and you have to stretch the Shinza to zip it all the way up. The corners of the X60s protrude a bit at the corners so it doesn't offer as much protection as it should.

Is that with the extended 4 cell or the slim 4 cell?

Would you then recommend getting the 12" sleeve instead, know that the x60s would have enough room to slide around in that larger case?

I have the extended 4 cell. If you don't mind the REALLY tight fit, the 11" will work. The 12" will accomodate the 8-cell battery if you ever get that.
