Frequently Asked Questions

TRANSFORMER CRATE

Q: What are Outstandards crates?

A: Outstandards crates are rugged, collapsible, stackable, modular storage crates built for real-world use—garage, truck, shop, range, jobsite, camping, and home organization. They’re designed to collapse down for easier storage when not in use, and set up fast when you need to load and go.

Q: Which crate sizes do you offer?

A: We currently offer two crate sizes: T-48 and T-90. Exact sizing specifications can be found by visiting outstandards.com.

Q: Do T-48 and T-90 crates connect or nest together?

A: No. Because the T-48 and T-90 have different dimensions and specs, they are not designed to connect or nest into each other.

STACKING & NESTING

Q: Do the crates nest into each other for storage?

A: Yes—crates nest for storage as long as they are the same size (T-48 into T-48, and T-90 into T-90).

Q: How high can I stack the crates?

A: We’ve stacked them seven (7) high in real-world use and haven’t had a need to go beyond that yet. Like any stackable system, practical max height depends on your surface, load distribution, and how likely the stack is to get bumped.

Q: Do they stack securely?

A: Yes—these are designed to stack as a stable system on a level surface with weight distributed evenly. If you’re loading heavy gear, keep heavier items lower in the stack.

DURABILITY & ENVIRONMENT

Q: Are the crates tested for extreme hot/cold conditions?

A: Yes. The crates have been tested to remain intact with no deformation in extreme cold and extreme heat conditions.

Q: Are the crates waterproof?

A: Crates are built to be durable and weather-resistant, but they are not a sealed dry box. If you need truly weatherproof storage inside a crate, our collapsible cooler fits inside the T-48 and can be used as a weatherproof inner liner for your gear.

ORDERS, BULK, AND PRICING

Q: Do you offer bulk pricing?

A: Yes. For bulk or business orders, email sales@outstandards.com with what you’re looking for (crate size, quantities, and where it’s shipping). We’ll get you squared away.

WARRANTY

Q: What is your warranty?

A:

  • Crates: 3-month warranty
  • Mags: 1-year warranty

Q: How do I file a warranty claim?

A: Email support@outstandards.com with your order number (if available), a quick description of the issue, and clear photos of the product and the affected area. We’ll review and take care of you.

EDC MAG

Q: Can I carry this onto an airplane?


A: The final decision rests with the TSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint.  Our EDC MAG powerbank meets TSA regulations, it is 76wh (under the TSA 100wh maximum allowance).  TSA requires that all portable chargers or power banks containing a lithium ion battery must be packed in carry-on bags - so please pack the EDC MAG in your carry-on bag, not in checked luggage.  We recommend that you keep the blue silicone bottom cover on the device when passing through security, to further identify the EDC MAG as a power bank.  To date, we have flown with the EDC MAG over 100 times domestically and internationally and have never had a single issue at any check point.


Q: How can I minimize confusing the EDC MAG for a real magazine?


A: Our staff includes recent U.S. Marines, and when designing the product we also consulted with numerous military and law enforcement personnel on this very issue. Based on our expertise and these consultations with others, every EDC MAG comes with a “training blue” silicone cover that fits over the base of the device. Keep this cover on your EDC MAG if you feel it is important to distinguish our device from your real magazines. Also, please note that the EDC MAG will not lock into your rifle if device is not tampered with and kept in its original
condition out of the box.

Q: How long will a fully charged EDC MAG remain charged if not used?


A: We don’t know, as we only began manufacturing our prototypes in early 2022. However, please note that we charged a few EDC MAG devices in January 2022 and those that remained in our inventory were not re-charged, but were still at 100% as of December 2022. So the devices seem to maintain full charge for at least one year.

Q: How many times will the EDC MAG charge my cell phone?


A: That depends on many factors, including the type of phone, temperature conditions, storage conditions, and other factors. Generally speaking, under normal, non-extreme conditions, the EDC MAG should be able to charge your cell phone around 5-8 times.
