Traveling with canister light

[jfproul]

ok guys with new regulation in air travel ... i tried to find my info on the net
but i am more lost than anything else ... here what i have :

Oms phantom canister light 12 volts 4AH
Salvo 4.5 Amp NIMH 10 Watt HID canister light
ikelite strobe ds-125

are those items prohibited with new regulation ?

thanks

for what i can understand my salvo light and my strobe ds-125 are nimh so this
is ok to travel but my OMS can light isn't ... does it contain too much lithium to
carry on bagage or ...

wrong type of lithium...

can lights are just fine.

so no problem on my carry-on ?

I always carry mine on, no problem. Open the can and remove the battery before you put it in the bin and send it through. Also, I put on this sticker I printed out from airspeed press: http://www.airspeedpress.com/BatteryLabelDrycell.jpg

i went to bonaire in january from JFK and had no problem but i bought a new
camcorder with a salvo can light and i starting to have a lot of material to bring
in the plane and i don't want to leave any material at the airport ... i am just wondering if they are very hard with people carrying a lot of electronic material like me

2 can light ( 1 oms + 1 salvo )
1 strobe ds-125
1 laptop
1 camcorder + 1 spare batt
1 slr camera + 1 spare batt
1 point and shoot camera + 8 batteries CR-v3
2 oms 2 watts U/W backup (cr-123)+ 4 spares
2 cr2540 spare batteries for diving computer

so alot of energy in the carry on...

Oh, you haven't travelled with me and my husband!

2 laptops
2 MP3 players
2 can lights
4 backup lights
1 digital camera (sometimes 2)
7 chargers for all of the above
2 - 4 NIMH can light batteries
connecting cords for all the electronics
card readers
spare batteries for all the small stuff

And the only thing TSA got concerned about on our trip home from Florida was . . . The REGULATORS!
