Before you reach out
If your product has a lithium battery, such as a power bank or a phone charging case, put the watt-hour rating in the brief. The US Federal Aviation Administration's lithium battery rules for passengers allow power banks in carry-on bags only, and cap each battery at 100 watt hours, or 160 with airline approval. You get the rating by multiplying the battery's voltage by its amp hours. Ask US channels such as Danny Packs and Perrie's Passport to show the product in a carry-on, because spare batteries have to come out if that bag is checked at the gate.
