Toys returned by the authorities
🕑 Added 2023-12-20 16:10:19 +0000 UTCMy toys have been returned by the "authorities". It's time to go HIJACK some planes.
For those who don't know, I took these on as hand luggage for safety reasons due to the lithium cells inside, and they were seized as being potential weapons.

Glad they returned them to you. I hope it wasn't too much of a hassle. TSA here in the states? I'm thinking they keep the stuff or toss it but I don't know for sure.
Caught between two conflicting regulations: 1) bring Li-Ion batteries on as carry-on items (up to 100WHr or 12 gm Li), and 2) don't carry on anything that could be used as a weapon. Guidance for that overlap is ... lacking.

hmm. it easy to call those making decisions wankers. i do so, often. i wonder if the issue they had was with 18650 cells?
