That's a bit different from my experience in 2003. On the way out, some customs guy confiscated all my AA batteries, nothing else. Guess he needed them.They checked nothing at customs in either direction.
There are no limits to the number of batteries you can CARRY ON the plane if they are under 100W (volts X amps). If they are over 100Wah like the T28 for Inspire, you are limited to 2 batteries. For P3 and P4 batteries, take as many as you like as carry-on.2 batteries is the "new" max, per bag right?
You know that locks don't anything to keep anyone out of your luggage don't you? The TSA has master keys for any TSA approved locks and most other locks as well. The master key CAD files have been available to download off the internet for quite awhile. If anyone wants to get inside at any point, they don't have to work too hard and will just force their way in if there is no easy way. I have traveled all over the world and the "officials" are the ones you usually have to worry about. Like my father used to say "A locked door only keeps out the honest people."I've read mixed reviews at that airport. Some people have no problems others have nightmares of electronics and items stolen. I know I'm going to use TSA locks on my checked luggage and the main items tagged with "returnme" stickers.
