No, not really consistent, due I think, to varying levels of training  
& competence, as well as regional variations in vigilance from the  
managers. However, I have to say, traveling with large amounts of  
sound gear on a weekly basis, I've never been questioned by TSA about  
any number of pieces which quite legitimately would look very  
suspicious on X-Ray. I have had mics visually inspected only once in  
hundreds of flights since 9/11 & that was in Germany, where security  
it much more thorough & competent than in the US.
Can you distribute your batteries among several traveling companions  
so as to be under the limit per person?
