I remember someone recommending diaper bags for photo gear, but that was
back when the bags were printed with garish designs that made it utterly
obvious that they were for diapers. I just looked at the current lineup
of diaper bags on Amazon and they look pretty much as nice as most
camera bags.
Maybe get some bio hazard stickers and slap them on generic plastic
bins? They'd not only deter thieves but would be interesting
conversation pieces if you get pulled over on the road...

My clever idea is that I could make trays that fit in an ice chest to hold
lenses, speed lights etc. Ice chests are weather resistant, and with their
double wall construction, would provide better protection than the standard
camera bag. There would be some sort of trick to making the trays to hold
lenses, or whatever.
I doubt that I am the first person to come up with this idea, and it would be
handy to learn from other people’s mistakes.
FWIW, There is now a wide range of stackable toolboxes, Home Depot sells some
made by Rigid, that also work pretty well for this, but they do have the
disadvantage of looking like they might contain something valuable, if someone
were to see them in the back of my van.
