[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 74241, member: 10850"] Your post includes several common misconceptions regarding lithium polymer batteries as carry-on items. You have gotten thru TSA successfully despite violation of the rules but it is irresponsible to encourage others to do so. The FAA (and your flight crew) care very much that you know and follow the rules: [URL='https://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ash/ash_programs/hazmat/passenger_info/media/Airline_passengers_and_batteries.pdf']FAA Battery Regulations[/URL] You must take all [I][B]steps to avoid[/B][/I] [I][B]accidental activation[/B] [/I]- that includes removing batteries when possible from devices that could heat up. Non-removable batteries of sufficiently small size are exempt from this rule (ex. cell phone, DJI remote). They also specifically require you take [I][B]steps to prevent short circuit of loose batteries[/B][/I]. It's all spelled out in the regulations. Your fellow passengers are hoping you will actually read the rules and follow them. [/QUOTE]
