Dear users, clients and friends,
As many of you know, for years there was no problem in travelling with a Batec handbike. However, starting in spring 2016, as a result of the increase in large lithium batteries in all sorts of devices (drones, hoverboards, e-bikes, scooters, wheelchairs, etc.), the airlines have become much stricter and began requiring any lithium batteries on commercial flights to comply with current IATA (International Air Transport Association) regulations to the letter. These regulations establish that batteries over 300 Wh are prohibited from being taken on commercial flights.
The batteries used in our handbikes from 2008 through April 2017 fall into this category, as they have between 324 Wh and 396 Wh depending on the model. Nevertheless, currently we can offer, within our battery line, a 280-Wh battery that complies with IATA regulations for commercial flights.
