Battery-Powered Items vs TSA
 
Do I have to remove any battery-operated items from my carry-on bag for TSA screeners to manually inspect please?

These are the ones I have:

Palm-sized batt. op. FAN

Two lumbar pillows - each with 2 C batteries

One Walkman/CD player

One Digital Camera with Memory Card


Thanks in advance.

rib, thanks!!!! I will try to keep 'em handy, but I was exhausted just THINKING I would have to extract each and every one of these, plus the liquids and gels, etc; LOL Thank you again.

I had no problem getting my battery powered black mamba through the other day. It made the TSA agent blush, but I just smiled he waved me through. I love to travel.

alice, there are some things you just can't leave home without, right?

or perhaps, come at home without?

Yes Neopatrick, I think I have my priorities in the proper order.
