Travel-friendly battery tanks for technical divers: How to fly stress-free with your high-end diving lamp!
Share
Which battery tanks are permitted for air travel?
Technical divers know that without a reliable tank lamp with a long burn time, every cave or wreck diving mission becomes a gamble. But anyone who wants to take their high-end diving lamp with them on flights often faces a challenge - the strict regulations of the IATA (International Air Transport Association).
Don't worry, we have the perfect solution for divers who value performance and flexibility - and don't want any hassle at the airport.
Can I take my fuel light in my hand luggage?
The short answer is: It depends on the batteries. According to IATA, there are clear rules:
- Batteries up to 100 Wh can be transported in hand luggage without any problems.
- Batteries between 100 Wh and 160 Wh are also permitted, but require the approval of the airline.
- Anything over 160 Wh ? Unfortunately forbidden – neither hand luggage nor checked luggage is an option.
This means that many classic battery tanks for tank lamps reach their limits when it comes to diving worldwide.
