So I just found my most comfy ski boots ever and of course I opted with heated liners, but what happens with TSA when they see those boots with 2 batteries each and the whole wiring stuff. Now I have tried to contact TSA to get an answer but all they send you is a brochure to read. It says that rechargeable lithium ion batteries under 100Wh are admitted in checked and carry on, and to leave them where they are in the devices (laptop ect), however the connector should be taped to avoid accidental contact.
Now those boots are not really a technical device and imagine TSA looking at wires and those batteries attached it will be probably a nightmare. So has anyone had any experiences with this? And/or should I rather take those batteries and put them in a separate plastic pouch with connectors taped? I think that sounds more reasonable and if questioned I can explain and show them a print out from the company. Or should I just leave them at home to not lose them to TSA?
Any help is appreciated.
