The is a major problem with the Dangerous Goods Regulations for Lithium batteries. Firstly the regulations are difficult to understand, secondly many manufactuers of equipment that contain these batteries are not aware that there are any restrictions. There is also a serious lack of knowledge amongst the airfreight industry and it is highly likely that many items are in the holds of your aircraft every day undeclared!
