I am buying the UB12180 SLA 12V 18AH T4 TERMINAL - PACK OF 2. We need to know if the packaging complies with requirements for air travel as luggage

This battery was designed well over a decade ago, long before the current air travel safety requirements. Your best bet would be to see if any of the manufacturer's web sites claim compliance, and then buy only that brand.

You'll need the MSDS from the manufacturer in order to determine if it's ok to carry as "Non Dangerous Goods" Regulations have changed, so this is your best venue to take.

The batteries are sealed. I use them on my mobility scooter. They usually take my scooter with the battery pack into the luggage area of the plane, so I believe that makes them compliant.If you are asking can you transport the batteries by themselves as luggage or in your luggage, I would contact TSA or the airline you are planning to use and ask them.

When traveling last year with our scooter chair, The airline (Us Air) placed the batteries in a "special" compartment. We were told they needed to be in a different area of the plane. I would imagine any batteries, sealed or not of the larger variety will not fly as "regular" luggage. They did not charge us any extra however to fly with the scooter or their batteries.

This is a soft case/cover. I don't know what the TSA regulations are for transporting electronics.

This isn't meant to be sarastic so please don't take it as such: I'm not with the TSA, so I can't comment on whether or not this is able to be brought on board. I'm not sure what the rules and regulations are for air travel, but in all honesty it's just a flashlight.

I don't have this level of product knowledge. I personally would feel comfortable traveling domestically with this unit in checked bags. I don't have any information regarding international travel.

Here is a link to the FAA publication regarding the use of battery-powered devices on commercial flights: http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ash/ash_programs/hazmat/passenger_info/media/faa_airline_passengers_and_batteries.pdf. As you can see, there is absolutely NO prohibition to the lithium battery (CR123) that the MiniMate GT ships with. As many of our MiniMate GT owners have switched over to a rechargeable battery system, we wanted to point out that the FAA article also permits the use of rechargeable lithium ion batteries. Of course, individual airlines may establish their own, more prohibitive policies if they wish. We have been selling this product for approximately 3 years and have encountered only 2-3 reports of individual airline prohibitions--all of which have been on United Airline flights. We are confident that this product meets the FAA Standards based on US DOT regulations (49 CFR, Sec. 175.10). Thank you very much for your Feedback. Most gratefully, Customer Service Team The Green Giraffe

I have the video fastpack 250AW and travel domestic flights without problems. Have not taken it internationally. Verify measurements of airline limits and pack size.

If someone is looking for an expanded answer, TSA has a blog page that gives a lot more information regarding the question of batteries on airplanes (http://blog.tsa.gov/2013/06/travel-tips-tuesday-safely-packing.html). Some airlines may have more restrictive rules, but it's a good guide. In this case, the shaver has a NiMH battery, which is allowed in both carry-on and checked luggage. They recommend NiMH batteries are installed in a device, or individually packaged to prevent the batteries causing a short, which can cause a fire. If the batteries can be removed, I don't remember how. In other words, it's fine.

For what it's worth, the quart bag requirement is probably TSA's most unenforced rule. Most any bag reasonably close to quart size will pass inspection. The rule is meant as a rough guide for officers, and most people at US airports don't have a bag at all.

Maybe he means tsa approved? Sounds like people have been able to travel with it without any problems, so I would guess the tea has no problems with it.

Since we are not using it as luggage, I don't know if it meets tsa carry on standards. I would say you might check with Zuca as to their actual claims.

I have to assume you mean, "can I put this in luggage prior to assembly?" I would say no. The box is pretty big and rather heavy. Unpacking the box releases a whole mess that you don't want to deal with. You might be able to check the box as is with an airline, though.

I'm not an expert on this subject and I won't accept any liability for how this answer may be used. Hypothetically speaking, I would guess that this item falls in a grey area and would be subject to the discretion of the TSA officers one would encounter. I also suspect that one would, hypothetically, probably succeed in bringing this along in a carry-on. That said, I would advise checking the TSA website for specific information on what is and is not allowed and following TSA guidelines.

I have flown to the UK on several occasions since using the Thermacell cartridges and have had no problems at all. I prefer my hair curler to an electic one, even though we can convert with another power plug. But. . . that is just me. We have been flying every two years since 1998. And I always put them in checked baggage, not in hand luggage. I do hope this will help you.

I believe they are as long as it passes through their security screenings as carry-on baggage. Before going to the airport I suggest that you call your local airport, or better yet the TSA itself as these things vary from state to state.

The complete tube will fit diagonally on a carry on bag. But nicely on a standard luggage. It quite small. The rod performance is excellent with precision placement of the lure, great feadback and fitting power. Just tested last week fishing peacock bass. Caught a 12 lbs and it handle the fish with ease. Highly recommend.quality very good.

I traveled with mine in my checked luggage, no problems! Follow the directions included and you're good to go.

I purchased this last year and have flown several times. I've had no problem taking it through security with the packs frozen.
