Oh yeah. That make sense. We sometimes travel with a mobility scooter that utilizes a lithium Ion battery that you have to hand carry as the airlines don't want it in cargo and it could easily get damaged also. Luckily the TSA folks are better trained to recognise them. On occasion one of them never sees one and the x ray determines it should be looked at. No never mind to me as I expect them to do their jobs. It's what we are paying for.
