You just gotta be careful with having people understand what it is if you take it out of your carry-on - that's how Harold & Kumar got sent to Guantanamo Bay :):)

With a good amount of travel, not once did I ever have a problem getting my stuff through TSA (batteries in carry on, not in checked luggage, and never even a second look of "what's this"? You're not supposed to use your vape gear while you're on the plane, but that's a separate issue.

Only time I ever got 'harassed' by TSA: when tube mechs hit the scene and I decided to be an early adopter. They literally thought it was a pipe bomb, until another vaper that worked for the airport came forward and said it was definitely an e-cig. Lol, there was another vaper on the same flight that was accosted as well for his tube mech. We became vape bros on the flight :lol:

Strange stuff,
The only problem I've ever had was leaving the Dominican Republic, security confiscated everything that looked like it was worth something. They didn't seem to have any interest in ego/ce4 / cheap looking gear, they let about a dozen through before & after us, in plain view of everyone around. we won't be going back.

Other than that, I fly domestic & international frequently, been carrying vape gear with me since 2011, never had a strange look, question, delay or anything confiscated.

Just me, I haven't been on an airline that doesn't allow batteries in carry on, I always remove batteries from device & put them in hard plastic battery cases.

I know several folks that have had trouble with Mx, all were carrying large amounts of liquids & other various vaping gear.
Like 5 - 20 120mls & dozen new tanks & power devices in checked baggage, no batteries.
They've cracked down on amounts that can be considered importing with intent to sell.
I go with 5 30mls, 2 power devices, 4- 6 batteries in carry on, never a problem.
