Shipping Batteries

[SousVide]

We have to fly to a event and we only have the batteries that came with the kop - are these legal for checked baggage or freight shipment? How do we ship batteries anyway - or do we have to specifically get sealed batteries?

It really depends on the airline and TSA. Sometimes, you can hand-carry them on as a personal item or carry-on. Sometimes.

One thing on batteries to remember for next time: Load them in the crate. There are instructions on how to put a battery box in there.

I would suggest you buy some from AndyMark and have them shipped to your hotel. It will be very difficult to run an event just with the two batteries from the KOP.

Also if you give your team and regional info I bet you can find someone attending the regional that can help you.

Check with your mentor Mr. Choi, I sent him a list of recommendations this morning.

And, like Sam says, you should update your team information on ChiefDelphi.
