Flashlight/Spotlight confiscated due to lead battery? (Singapore)

[king2penn]

Hey guys ill be buying a vector POB soon to be flown all the way to Singapore via airmail.

Will there be a chance that it might get confiscated by airport security due to the lead acid battery?

Thanks!

Regards,
Steven

To be safe, what you should do is ship it to me and I will send you weekly reports on how bright it is :naughty:

Seriously though, there are numerous very knowledgeable CPF members from Singapore, and I'm sure one of them will be able to advise you well. I would suggest though that you edit the thread title to include the word "Singapore" to get their attention.

The company that sell and send you the light will take all precautionary measure to ensure it is properly packed. If that the case, no worry. Unless there is ticking sound or liquid out of the package.

If it is not properly pack, I doubt the post office would accept their package.
