Is there a site, ( ie market) or is it just Walmart, similar to Apliu Street Kowloon (Hong Kong) where you can buy good inexpensive CR123's over the counter in USA, and elsewhere.
This would help in the carrying of numerous, many unused, CR123's.
CR123's are ridiculous price here in UK over the counter.
With planning, I get all mine mail order.
Good point. I hope that is not what they meant because lots of people are going to be confused. I think the average person on the street would say that a 3 D cell Mag has three batteries, and a 4 D cell Mag has 4 batteries.Hello Al,
The next thing we have to get a reading on is what the term "battey" means.
A single cell can also be called a battery, but usually a battery is made up of several cells.
In the case of the M6, it uses 6 cells for its battery pack. If the battery magazine was considered a "battery," then it would exceed the 2 gram limit.
The same goes for cameras and camera equipment. If you are using Energizer L91 Lithium AA cells, and your camera uses 4 of these cells, it could be considered a 4 cell battery pack, and that would also exceed the 2 gram limit.
On the other hand, if you pulled the cells out and carried them separately, you may be OK. I don't see a limit to the amount of single primary cells that you can carry.
This is going to be interesting to see how it plays out...

PS: I don't care what any of these "other" websites say - the TSA AND the specific airline makes the rules and enforcement - if you don't like it or agree with it - don't fly - use the train, car, bus, cycle or walk. :mecry:
rant off.
Two days ago I had an apple (fruit, not ipod or Mac) confiscated by the x-ray operator at the Statue of Liberty.
Do you believe that the ban will include AA and AAA Energizer primary lithiums?
How about rechargeable AA's?
