I traveled through the UK to Thailand from Canada last year. I had a bunch of Li-ion batteries for headlamps and
flashlights.In North America they want them in your carry on. I had no issues on departure. When I arrived in the UK
and passed through screening I was flagged. The EU/UK wants these batteries to be carried in checked luggage
I was told. They wanted to know the reason I had so many. (10, or so) I had to see a supervisor etc...I did
tell them the airlines should have a uniform policy. After 30 minutes they let me proceed with the batteries.
Of course I understand the issues. In Carry on they could shorted and used to start a fire. In checked luggage
if they are not stored properly with the terminals capped/taped they could short in your checked luggage.
Travel with the battery drained, capped and taped in your checked luggage. You will not be allowed to have a
drill/battery in your carry-on.
 

Post the video or close the topic.

Some quick observations after a week long stay in Meuang PKK...
 
Negatives….
 
1. The noise from Route 4 is 24/7. Even a kilometer (or more) away from Phetkasem you can hear the roar of traffic, even in the dead of night.
2. PKK has a mosquito problem. There are lots of boggy, swampy, or areas with poor drainage which are fertile breeding areas. I was surprised by how many mosquitos there were around the house I was renting.
3. PKK has no municipal dump. PKK hauls its trash to the dump in neighboring Pranburi. While there are trash barrels and regularly scheduled trash pickup throughout the city, you can see that there is a problem with illegal dumping in some spots. Also, people resort to burning garden debris which won't fit into the small trash barrels.
4. Some of the side streets are so narrow that they are effectively one-way. Utility poles and water meters often are perilously close to the road. (I damaged a side mirror on my truck sideswiping a power pole which was ridiculously close to the road. Even on the main roads, Koh Lak Road for example, vehicles parked along side the road made for tight maneuvering in a Isuzu D-max pickup truck.  I found drivers to be very considerate while riding my bicycle, but the congestion did not make bike riding in town very pleasant (except for the Ao Manao AFB which had great dedicated bicycle paths.)
5. Maybe I was missing something, but beyond noodle shops and very basic Thai restaurants, I did not think there were very many "dining out" type restaurants in town.
6. PKK merchants are still in a learning phase about do's and don't's in dealing with foreigners. The vast majority (90%) are very honest, but a tiny number are downright predatory. 
7. Highway 4 is undergoing a lot of construction, and there are a lot of police inspections presumably due to security concerns.
 
Positives...
 
1. Great farmer's markets, especially for seafood.
2. Great easy access to Lotus, Makro, Home Pro (side note: stay away from the Kitchen Plus restaurant @ HomePro; probably the weirdest, least appetizing food I've ever eaten in Thailand).
3. As mentioned, Ao Manao AFB has some wonderful bike paths. Outside of town there are also quieter roads which offer fairly pleasant bicycling routes and there is a healthy bicycling culture there both among foreigners and Thais. Dogs are generally well-behaved towards bicyclists, even out on country roads.
4. Very friendly people. There are a lot of retired Thai military people in town who I found to be extremely friendly and welcoming.
5. Proximity to the ocean made overnight temperatures noticeably cooler than in central Thailand where I live. 
6. The Western side of PhetKasem Hwy is much more laid-back, but unfortunately there aren't a lot of rental options there, and I'm not in the market for trying to lease land and build a house out there.
 
Take away: Great place to visit, even for an extended stay, but probably won't move there.

Can anyone enlighten me what is this about???

Should be no problem. Airlines generally have a 100 Wh limit. You battery is: (16 x 2000) / 1000 = 32Wh which is well under the limit. A typical laptop battery is 44Wh.

 

If you want to check it make sure the battery is inserted into the drill. If you want to carry on, can be in the drill or separate.

Thanks very much for your prompt reply tonray.

The airlines all have their battery rules posted .....check airline site. In general, as long as batteries are below a certain capacity, they can be brought as checked baggage (but must be in device !) or they can be brought as carry-ons separately as long as in a static free bag or the terminals taped over. What capacity if the battery ?

If I had a penny for every time I did something stupid while drunk............... I would have £12.83

Am in the Uk now and have just been given a cordless drill as a present, nice compact little unit.

But as it has a Lithium-Ion battery am concerned about traveling back to Thailand with it !!

Any advice would be welcome

He sounded like a nice, simple guy who had gone back to basics. Respect.
