This person works in the battery industry. Hello fellow battery expert!

I used to work in portable electronics. We had a battery vendor who wanted to overnight us some samples (like 100mAh cells).

To get them on the plane, they just bought a My Neighbor Totoro night light, popped it open, and shoved the battery inside. They didn't even tell us they were going to do that.

Sometimes it's a lot easier to skirt laws than explain why they're wrong.

Yeah plus, y'know... free night light.
