Had a bit of a problem with my chuck at Ft Myers International airport the other day before x mas.
"We have never seen an e-cig like this before"
After 20 minutes of arguing with TSI that the chuck was not a Nazi hand grenade, they let me pass.
This was before that Nigerian fellow tried to burn the plane down too.

Leaving again tomorrow, and i'm dreading TS1 a second time (after the Nigerian guy tried to burn the plane this time).

I have a spare chuck in the suitcase, hope they do not mess with that.

Anyway, i'm a tad traumatized at the idea of losing a chuck to TSI, tomorrow.
Ah! and coming back to the US from the Caribbean will be fun !!

Good luck, that would be a horrible way to lose a Chuck!

Don't worry about losing it. You experienced the worst that TSA has to offer. I work for TSA so you can believe me. We can not detain anyone and we can not confiscate anything.

A self-addressed padded envelope could come in handy. With postage, of course.

Yeah, overnight it to your home. It might make it there before you do, (and less likely to make people nervous!)

Seriously, there is no need to overnite it. Like I said you have experienced the worst TSA has to offer. PVs are not a prohibited item and will not be disallowed through any checkpoint. Though I do feel the need to say it is TSA not TSI. It stands for Transportation Security Administration.

Thanks for the info.
With hindsight now, i think they were simply curious at seeing a large chuck.
I think most people carry smaller e cigs around with them.
