But you can keep bringing your 100 Wh powerbanks (coincidentally the same energy as contained in a 2015 15 inch MacBook battery).

- wnissen 7y agoAs someone who had one of the bad batteries, where it swelled up to an alarming degree, I see a major difference between a generic power brick with some small possibility of a problem and a battery with a known problem.
- marcinzm 7y agoWhen I flew in Europe recently they gave an announcement saying using power banks in flight is prohibited.
- FireBeyond 7y agoAre those powerbanks subject to a safety recall?
- gesman 7y agoMy Laptop takes 2 x 230W power supplies, lol.
- wtallis 7y ago1. Watt-hours are not the same thing as Watts. 2. That's not a laptop, that's a luggable.
- s_y_n_t_a_x 7y agoA lot of flights do prohibit powerbanks.
- oasisbob 7y agoNot much of a coincidence - that happens to be right at the limit of how much power capacity you can have and still being the device on a plane per FAA regulations.
- prawn 7y agoOn my recent flights between the USA and Australia, they specifically advised not to check any batteries at all, so in my carry-on I had 5 drone batteries, 3 powerbanks and a mid-2015 MBP. The provided USB port couldn't charge my larger iPad, so the powerbanks were useful then.
