Thank you for visiting us at NAB2007 Booth #: C10621 but after many consecutive years of Extreme NAB expense, dissatisfaction, and despite NAB brags of increased visitors, a visible reduction in floor traffic, we have decided to forgo NAB Hype enabling use to continue keeping your price for our battery packs using only the very best LG Chem, Panasonic, and Sanyo battery cells and quality at less than half the prices of Anton Bauer, IDX, Sony, and Red One, not to mention generic brands.

My wife and I stopped carrying our luggage with us onto airplanes several years ago.  As a business we stopped carrying luggage to trade shows on airplanes four years ago.  We know where we are going, have reservations, and we ship out ahead of time.  Many of our clients are making the same move with their personal items and their broadcast and cinematography batteries.  We suggest that whether national or international, if possible, ship ahead using DHL, FedEx, or UPS.  It is a LOT less hassle.

I understand that if the battery is attached to the equipment it is allowed.  If batteries are Locked onto their charger I believe that would be, "Attached" to the equipment.  Still secure the equipment in hard cases!

We also suggest that you purchase simple Glad or Rubbermaid containers for each individual battery.  Add padding, enclose the battery, seal the lid, and package all in a hard container or suitcase for shipping.

We are looking into personalized plastic containers for our battery line but it will be more expensive than your personal modification of plastic containers.

The bottom line:  Do NOT be cheap or stupid on Safety.  Your children or family may be on a flight with an idiot cutting corners on his or her lithium ion batteries.  I know because of our many fine clients we still interface with some idiots.  I do not want June and I to fly with them.  I Encourage You to Report Them.  There are severe penalties.
