I took my Kx2 on 6 flights this year. Two international. Only twice did a tsa 
official even open the waterproof box it was in.  And that was a newbie who 
just stared at it for a while until her supervisor took a quick look at it and 
said “okay” it was fine to carry on.  The airlines publish on their websites 
the specs on the size of lithium batteries that can be carried on. The specs 
are given in Watts. The 2600 ma elecraft  batteries are well below that.
