On my assumptions that

a) you are prepared to put this thing together yourself (i.e. are
prepared to accept quite a lot of fiddling about to get what you
want), and
b) there seems to be quite a lot of sizes on offer of these 'Peli
cases' (I've been looking at http://www.hofbauer.co.uk/cases/peli.php)

my suggestion would be not to compromise - go with the modules you
want (even if that means two PSU boards) and then find a case to fit
it all in.

Looking at the 'Bumble Bee' I'll make several observations:
1) On the basis of the 4 modules they suggest as 'standard fit', they
are blowing the PSU rating by 30% anyway! (110+122+131+140 = 130mA on
Doepfer figures!). Thus the PSU apparently can chuck out more than
the advertised 100mA (or it runs real hot!).
2) The box appears to be the '1150' (from the Hopfbauer site),
internal size: 215x150x95. Doepfer have a picture of the A100MNT
supply on the 'A100 accessories' page (but admittedly you won't be
able to gauge its size unless you're already familiar with Doepfer
gear...). However, from the Bumble Bee pictures, if they've mounted
the PSU on the 'back' (i.e. bottom of the case), then there should be
plenty of space for a second one beside it. But, if it's mounted on
the 'bottom' (i.e. the hinge side of the case), then you've probably
had it... But then the extra depth on the next case up (the '1200'
adds 1.5cm to depth) might give you all you need to mount 1 or 2 PSUs
on the bottom of the case regardless, and the '1300' at 155mm deep
should be plenty enough.

I can only share your frustration there - luckily I'm only about 50
mins drive away from EMIS, the UK distributor, which is the main
reason I ended up with Doepfer stuff in the first place!
