I think such batteries should be banned from ALL passenger aircraft holds, and I personally would ban them cargo aircraft too....

there is just too much unreliability and unpredictability , and it's impossible to police from source to transportation. They are too dangerous for air transportation.

If they are too time sensitive to be sent on container vessels around the Globe, then perhaps the manufacturers should cough up and have plants on each continent rather than just having a race to the bottom on production costs and having their plants located in the Far East for example.....
