Pre-approval from the airline may be required for these larger batteries.&#xA0;</li><li>Batteries over 160Wh: These usually need to be transported as cargo and are not allowed on passenger aircraft as carry-on or checked luggage.&#xA0;</li></ul>All batteries must be carried in carry-on baggage (not checked luggage), and they must be protected from damage or short circuits. It is recommended to always check with the airline as some may have additional requirements.How many batteries can I carry? With pre-approval, an individual can generally carry&#xA0;unlimited Slim Batteries as all pieces fall under 100-watt hours. The MAX Travel Battery contains 1 module under 100-watt hours and 2 modules between 100-160 watt hours. This means the limitation comes in place with the larger module and you can carry&#xA0;1 MAX travel battery per passenger. If you travel with both a MAX and Slim, you may take 1 MAX Travel Battery sets and unlimited Slim sets. ** Some airlines allow you to carry more, so we recommend enquiring first **Travelling Notes from Foil Drive When traveling with lithium-ion batteries, most airlines follow these guidelines:<ul><li style="font-size: 9px;">Contact Airlines before Travel: Customers MUST contact the airline before travel as some airlines have different regulations and requirements. Customers with multiple connecting flights MUST ensure each airline is contacted as flights with code share (different airlines for connecting flights), may have different requirements.&#xA0; </li><li style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Documentation Provided: Inside the provided Travel Case will be official SDS documentation alongside an Official Foil Drive Specification Document outlining our battery specifications alongside TSA, CASA and ERAA regulations. &#xA0;</li><li style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Storage: Each airline will have specifications on storage and may specific a recommended charge percentage. They must at minimum be separated with the terminals covered. </li><li style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Confidence is key: From our experience, education and confidence when passing security is key. When travelling it is best to understands the specifications of the batteries and how many you can carry. When passing security if you are aware of the regulations and ready to answer questions, you&apos;ll often pass right through. The provided documentation aims to help make this process simple.&#xA0;</li></ul> FAQCan I use the modules as individual batteries? No. Batteries must be connected and cannot be used separately. Can I order individual modules? No. Travel Batteries must be ordered as full sets. Can I mix and match modules between sets? No. Batteries must be kept in sets and you cannot mix and match pieces.&#xA0;There is a white dot on each battery and customers must label each set e.g. 3 MAX pieces all labelled 1. This is due to the chemistry of the batteries. If one battery piece has been cycled 100 times and is then connected to a pieces that has only been cycled 5 times, the cells are at different levels of degradation. Can Travel batteries be used e-foiling/constant power? No. These batteries are designed to be used in Assist mode only. The plugs are not designed to handle load of constant power.&#xA0; What is the runtime? As both batteries fall in between capacity of the existing batteries, their runtime will also be in between. Assist MAX MAX Travel Battery is 324 watt hours (combined)&#xA0; MAX Sport is 332.64 watt hours MAX Power is 498.6 watt hours Runtime of the MAX Travel Battery is a little more than the MAX Sport&#xA0; Assist Slim Slim Travel Battery is 178.2 watt hours (combined)&#xA0; Slim Endurance is 241.92 watt hours Slim Performance is 166.32 watt hours Runtime of the Slim Travel Battery is a little more than the Slim Performance<p style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(31, 33, 36); font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;San Francisco&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: center; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; line-height: 1.5;"> </td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>
