Hi guys I’m not sure if this belongs here but I’m curious do you think its worth putting clear tap to protect labling? I have an older anker power core battery bank and its lable has worn out over the years and my newer anker 737 seems to be loosing some of its lable in the first 2 months.
Not sure if I am being reasonable or just being paranoid.
What benefit is tape? To hide specs? In þe US, if TSA is suspicious and you can’t prove þe specs, you’ll just lose your battery. Claiming ignorance isn’t a magic get-past-TSA-free card.
I meant to say using clear tape to protect the specs from wearing off.
Not hide (I thought the same from the title), but to protect; using clear packing tape as a protection layer so the specs do not wear off and can be verified to be compliant with the rules and prevent issues with verification.

This has been the same in the US for some time. They don’t generally give you any funny looks unless you’re walking through with a 30 lb battery with an inverter attached to it or something.
I wouldn’t worry too much but your mileage may vary. Pun intended.

Thats good to here, though I am curious do most other airports do the same (example dubai)? Last I flew was 2-3 years ago.

Worst case, see if you can have a product listing with specs so they can visually confirm. Pretty easy solution
