Reading it again, it turns out that rechargeables are not banned -
only the single use types. Okay in the package and in the device or
in individual plastic bags, but not loose or with several in a
container...

Still wierd. TSA is a branch of Big Brother and a fear-mongering arm
of the NeoCons I think. I'll drive if I can rather than fly... but
always been that way!

most of the current smart charge Li-ion batteries have protective
circuitry and are not a problem. The current line of consumer
batteries also have recessed contacts for the same reasons.
