Thanks again everyone.
It's crazy isn't I that we should even have to worry.

Don't worry, you do need to take all batteries as hand luggage. Any liquids you take on the plane need to be part of the 100 ml limit that is imposed.

So, when I went to Turkey last month, I put all my batteries (2 Egos and an Evic) in a separate tray with my mobile and wallet, cash etc. Full clearomisers and bottles went in the clear plastic bag with the wife's perfume! If you need more, just put it in hold bags.

I explained to the guy that they were vaping devices/ecigs, no problem!

Coming back, same deal!

Enjoy your break and just remember to take enough liquid to see you through

When you guys go to Europe on jollies, do you use your uk wall plug with an adapter to make it fit their plugs, or do you take a special e-cig eu fitting wall plug?
I take a few adapters plug them in then plug hairdryer, mobile phone etc into them, but wondering if that is ok to do with an ecig charger?

Just to clarify as a few contributors mentioned a 100ml total limit. Throughout the EU there is a per-bottle size limit of 100ml (even partly-filled bottles that are larger than 100ml are banned) and a 1litre (1000ml) total limit when all your bottles of liquids are added together. That might include toiletries etc. Plenty for most needs, except of course for drinks. But of course we can buy the airport's drinks in any quantity we wish (at inflated prices) once through security!
When I flew this summer, I had several 20ml bottles of eliquid (in my re-sealable, transparent plastic bag, of course!) and the security staff did not take the slightest bit of notice. They seem to be generally more familiar with ecigs this year. Also, as a point of interest, I am starting to see ecigs in people's hands a lot more when I am out and about. Usually it is the ego+CE5 kind of thing.
