Has anyone transported this battery on an airline? Or been prohibited from doing so?

Not yet. I would think it to be fine because it's cold at high altitudes. It's only high heat environments that I would be really concerned. Same battery material as iPhone and iPad.

Personally; no. You should not have any problems transporting. You will need to present all your electronic devices when going through security. Hope this helps.Norma

Yes, took in my backpack on 4 flights so far - no problems at all with Security screening.

Yes! I have traveled with it on long international flights (about 16 hours with one layover). It's like any electronic device such as iPad, laptop or another smaller charger. I used it while on long fights with no problems.

Absolutely! My boss and I frequently fly and we play games or watch movies which we all know drains our battery quickly. So long as you have to appropriate charging cords in tow, you can use this power bank to charge your devices. I have reviewed most airplane rules and have found it is not against regulations to carry on a battery bank, or use it while in flight. So long as security can scan it and make sure it is legit. No one has said anything to us during the hours and hours on our flights. Just don't swing it around your head and run up and down the isles and you should be fine.

It is highly unlikely the TSA would allow it on a plane. If you put it in a case of some kind and had them put it in checked luggage under the plane then maybe. In the cabin? No way.

Never tried it. You need a cigarette lighter type socket to plug it into or a 12volt outlet. Don't remember seeing those on any planes I've flown on. Sorry.

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.

yes that should not be a problem. Plus then you have two batteries for long haul flights.

Let me answer this, as I fly with the wheelchair weekly to different countries. Different countries and different airlines has different rules. Some wants you to take out the battery, and they might even tape the connection part. Not all the airline will ask, but the airline rules says you can hand carry 2 pcs of 160W batteries to the cabin. Well, please just tell them that the battery is 24V 6A (which makes it 144W) and print yourself a nice label, stick on the battery. Most of the airlines will just tell you to check-in the wheelchair without talking about the battery issue. Some will allow you to drive all the way to the plane gate and they will take it away from you just like a baby stroller. But we must avoid them from pulling the battery handle bar, as that will damage the battery socket at the other end. So I would suggest check-in the wheelchair at the check-in counter, and they normally take very good care of wheelchairs.

That manufacturer of batteries makes a multitude of batteries. Contact the seller for the MOST accurate information! They were so impressive I ordered 2 batteries with charger. Now flying international in not a concern - at least regarding batteries! :-)

I know of no reason this would not be allowed in carry on luggage. They might not like it in checked luggage though.http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct;=j&q;=&e;src=s&source;=web&cd;=3&ved;=0CGcQFjAC&url;=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.faa.gov%2Fabout%2Foffice_org%2Fheadquarters_offices%2Fash%2Fash_programs%2Fhazmat%2Fpassenger_info%2Fmedia%2Ffaa_airline_passengers_and_batteries.pdf&ei;=IeWEU8j-E8y8oQSBnIKgDQ&usg;=AFQjCNF_FDnN8cHYYWSayTlXx4UjFjF9aQ&sig2;=hOHJEccAfQXxylDyXPor1w&bvm;=bv.67720277,d.cGU&cad;=rja

I have had it for two years and its still in the box. Too many battery warnings came with it. Its in the lithium family like the ones that were catching fire on Boeings new airliners. I may mess with it down the road but not in a hurry.

Yes, this battery is allowed to carry on with you, but not allowed in check-in languages. For latest and further information regarding travel with lithium ion batteries, please go to U.S. Department of Transportation web site at http://SafeTravel.DOT.Gov Best regards.

I've been using on a 24v aircraft battery (sealed) seems to work alright, they make an aviation "tender" unit...more expensive...no long term effects yet...

It is battery operated so no worries about that; however make sure to put it in your checked luggage, I almost lost a galvanic device to TSA security once because they thought it was a sceurity risk because it had an electrical charge!

I've brought this (and several other similar powerbanks like the Anker and Lepow moonstone) on flights within the U.S. with no problem.

I recently took this item on a trip, on the way to the destination I had it in my carry on. on the way back I had it in my checked luggage. I had no issues with the product or the airline. I flew with Delta.

Yes the battery can be removed once the Seat is not folded down on it. I always remove battery first either way. Takes only about 3 seconds to click out! When we travel my wife takes it out at the plane door and places it in her handbag due to airline restrictions. Only one battery and relatively easy to carry.,
