[Elecraft] Airport security an electronic gizmos

[Dave Johnson]

Hi gang

Does anyone know if the lead-acid gel cell in the K2 battery option causes
difficulties with airport security. Most (all) airlines prohibit "acid" and
therefore may take a dim view of a battery that contains acid, even in gel
form.

Last year I removed the battery from my K2 and left it at home, using a loan
battery at the destination. All quite a hassle.
