[pct-l] Batteries - FYI

[boundforadventure at gmail.com]

This is what Southwest Airlines has to say about carrying batteries on its  
planes:

"Effective January 1, 2008, you may not pack spare lithium batteries in  
your checked baggage.
You may pack spare lithium batteries in your carry-on baggage. Please see  
our Spare Battery Tips and How-To sections to find out how to pack spare  
batteries safely!
If you pack a device containing batteries, secure it against activation by  
locking the activation switch in the "off" position, placing the device in  
a protective case, or by other appropriate measures.
For personal use, there is generally no restriction on the number of spare  
batteries allowed in carry-on baggage. This is the case for cell phone  
batteries, "hearing aid" button cells, and AA batteries/AAA batteries  
available in retail stores, as well as almost all standard laptop computer  
batteries."

Still trying to decide whether I want to take my pack with me or ship.
