After calling the relevant airport staff, I learned that for portable electronic devices that need to be carried on board as carry-on baggage, the lithium content of the lithium metal battery should not not exceed 2 grams and the rated power value of the lithium-ion battery It must not exceed 100 Wh (Watt hour); if it exceeds 100 Wh but is less than 160 Wh, passengers must request it from the airline when purchasing the ticket and install it in checked baggage or carry-on baggage afterwards. airline approval and if it exceeds 160Wh, lithium batteries are strictly prohibited.
In addition, backup batteries for portable electronic devices must be individually protected to prevent short circuits. Passengers can place the batteries in their original retail packaging or insulate the electrodes in another way, or put each battery in it. In a separate plastic bag or protective box, batteries can only be transported in hand luggage. At the same time, only two spare 100-160 Wh lithium batteries approved by the airline can be carried.
As lithium is an unstable metal, lithium batteries can easily cause spontaneous combustion when exposed to heat in a high altitude environment. This is why lithium batteries have always been listed in the ICAO “Technical Instructions for Safe Transportation”. dangerous goods by air". International The Civil Aviation Organization has always stipulated that lithium batteries must be carried on board as hand baggage; if lithium batteries are placed directly in baggage for check-in , luggage will be easily crushed or bumpeds in the small cargo space, which will increase the navigation risk factor.
How to check the energy of lithium batteries before taking a flight? The reporter learned through online surveys that the energy of mobile phone lithium batteries is mainly 3-10Wh; 10 to 20 Wh; portable The energy of a camera's lithium battery ranges from 20 to 40 Wh; the lithium battery energy of a professional camera can exceed 100 Wh; The energy of a laptop's lithium battery ranges from 30 to 100 Wh. the battery by looking at the laptop battery.
Lithium batteries found in electronic devices such as cell phones, SLR cameras, commonly used camcorders and most laptops generally do not exceed the standard. However, if you want to carry professional electronic equipmenton a large scale, passengers should check the lithium battery energy in advance and follow the procedures according to regulations. ?
How many batteries can be carried on the plane?
Yes, devices containing lithium batteries can be placed in the checked or transported baggage. in baggage, but spare lithium batteries can only be placed in carry-on baggage. Dry batteries are not subject to any particular restrictions. When taking a civil aviation aircraft, consumer electronic equipment and spare batteries containing lithium or lithium-ion cells or batteries for personal use may be carried on board with baggage, but the lithium content of lithium metal battery should not exceed 2 grams. The rated energy value of lithium-ion batteries should not exceed 100 Wh.
According to the clear regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration of China regarding passengers carrying batteries
First, passengers are not allowed to carry batteries lithium batteries in their checked baggage.
Second, passengers can carry lithium-ion battery cells or batteries for personal use.consumer electronic devices (watches, calculators, cameras, cell phones, laptops, camcorders, etc. ). Spare batteries must be individually protected against short circuits and may only be transported in hand luggage. In addition, each replacement battery should not exceed the following quantities: for lithium metal or lithium alloy batteries, the lithium content does not exceed 2 grams; for lithium-ion batteries, the total equivalent lithium content does not exceed 8 gramses.
Third, passengers can carry lithium-ion batteries with a total lithium equivalent content of more than 8 grams and not more than 25 grams. If each battery is properly protected to prevent short circuits, it can be transported. handbag. There is a limit of 2 spare batteries per person.
Fourth, other types of replacement dry batteries, such as nickel-metal hydride batteries, can also be taken with you if measures are taken to prevent short circuits.
Fifth, lithium-ion batteries whose total lithium equivalent content exceeds 25 grams must be shipped as cargo in accordance with the standards of “Lithium Battery Air Transportation Specifications” (MH/T1020- 2007).
Can the battery be taken on the plane? Can the battery be taken on the plane?
Lithium batteries haves different capabilities and requirements. The details are as follows:
1. Lithium battery equipment and spare batteries not exceeding 100 Wh (watt hours) do not need to be declared. A reasonable number of spare batteries may only be carried on board in hand baggage. .
2. Lithium battery equipment and replacement batteries exceeding 100 Wh but not exceeding 160 Wh must be declared and approved. Only 2 spare batteries of this specification may be carried.
3. It is prohibited to carry electronic equipment with lithium batteries and spare batteries exceeding 160 Wh on board.
4. It is prohibited to transport damaged or recalled lithium batteries; It is prohibited to transport lithium batteries or external batteries without rated energy or with unclear markings.
Protection with lithium batteriesspare; :
Put the lithium battery separately in its original packaging, plastic bag or protective box, or put tape on the exposed electrodes to prevent the lithium battery from spontaneously exploding and burn due to friction, collision and short circuit. circuit.
Detailed information:
1. transport damaged or recalled lithium batteries;
2. It is prohibited to carry lithium batteries or power banks that do not have an energy rating or are not clearly marked;
3. ordinary lithium batteries or power banks;
China Southern Airlines - Battery Transportation
1. Ordinary batteries can be carried on the plane, but cannot be checked. It is strictly prohibited to transport lithium batteries whose nominal energy exceeds 160 Wh. Portable electronic devices containing lithium batteries for personal use (cameras, mobile phones, laptops, video cameras, etc.)It can be carried as hand luggage, and the rated energy value of lithium batteries does not exceed 100 Wh ( watt hours)
2. If it exceeds 100 Wh but does not exceed 160wh, it can be installed with the agreement of the airline on the devices present in checked baggage or by hand. Lithium batteries exceeding 160 Wh are strictly prohibited.
3. Replacement batteries for electronic devices portables must be separately protected against short circuit (put them in their original packaging or use other methods to insulate). electrodes, such as Apply tape to exposed electrodes or place each battery in a separate plastic bag or protective box) and carry it only in your carry-on baggage. Only 2 airline-approved spare 100-160 Wh lithium batteries may be carried.
