My 1st flight in forever [View all]

is before dawn tomorrow. Will be gone for a month and just learned there is a limit on battery packs in carry-on luggage with none allowed in checked. I was planning on taking quite a few.

I have one that’s a 32000 mAh that I really want to take but don’t want confiscated, a couple of 26800 mAh, and a couple of 10000 mAh.

What is your experience with what I could take and be safe? TSA.gov isn’t helpful enough and couldn’t talk to a real person. Airlines wasn’t helpful.

This is a US domestic flight.

Thanks for any counsel!

I'm not sure why you need so many battery packs unless you'll be somewhere with no electricity. Lonestarblue Sep 2023 #1
