Hand luggage batteries and charger

[worthingbloy]

Hi guys, I'm going to be travelling around Spain and a couple of other European cities in the next week or so. I'm only taking hand luggage, I've sorted juice into non labelled 10 ml bottles and I'm taking my KFL and nemesis but I was wondering about 18650 batteries and mains charger through security. Do you think this will be ok with 3 batteries?
Anyone had any issues with hand luggage security leaving uk and leaving Spain?
Many thanks

A lot depends on where you're going, I had my spare rechargable AA bateries for my camera confiscated on the way home from Gambia a few years ago, by a security guard with a machine gun

You'll be fine. Lots of Vaping shops popping up in Spain so you'll be able to get juice supplies at least. Batteries are fine in hand luggage. Europe is fine for Vaping. Have a great time.

I've been to Spain lots of times and never had a problem.

Don't worry about it really. I've had a few flights to different European countries lately and had no problem. Most of the time they don't even ask any questions, I suppose vaping is getting more common these days so airport security know what they are looking at

Brill, thanks I'll take a SAE just in case!

Just make sure your batteries are in a box worthingbloy and not loose and you should be fine

My backpack is a sight to behold and has every electrical lead and batteries you can think of ..Including radios.psp.headphones.Ipad.iphone and numerous other leads..The security always pull it but they have never had a problem about any vaping gear..Batteries included..

I usually take longer flights to Asia and the rules on those airlines are that batteries MUST be in hand luggage rather than in your suitcase. Never had a problem with taking any vaping stuff in my hand luggage, I usually take quite a lot too.

All great advice, many thanks. Got a battery box added too.
