I'm going with a group of High School kids from Church to the Bahamas
this summer to do hurricane relief construction. Has anyone flown with
Drill batteries recently? It looks like the FAA Allows Lithium
batteries that are <=100 Watt Hour in your carry on bag, they are not
allowed in checked baggage. A Dewalt 20v, 5ah battery is 100WH. Has
anyone flown with batteries, do you have to do anything special in
screening or anything?
From this document
https://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/ash/ash_programs/hazmat/passenger_info/media/Airline_passengers_and_batteries.pdf
It says that chargers are considered volatile, and must be treated as
batteries, I'm not sure why that would be. According to the infographic
it seems that the battery can be in the checked bag if it's attached to
a tool? That doesn't seem to make any sense.
