Do you ship your batteries legally?

If you work with shipping batteries on a daily basis, then the above question needs to be addressed!

In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on safety when batteries are transported from one player to another.

This is not least due to the increasing demand for lithium batteries, which with i.e., high energy density is a popular choice when one's application needs to be powered. Despite several obvious beneficial properties, one should at the same time be aware that lithium batteries under the wrong circumstances and in the event of incorrect handling, can pose a safety risk - in the worst case, they can cause fire and explosion.

Thus, for everyone's safety, there are a number of guidelines to follow when involved in shipping and transporting batteries, and in particular lithium batteries - it is therefore not without reason that they are classified as dangerous goods.
