@q Uh... what about pacemakers, hearing aids and so on? Is this not violating some foundational laws?

@q What about the little handheld scanners they use to check tickets? What sort of batteries do they have?

@q @cato I’m always really disappointed when e-unicycles aren’t actual unicycles. Life would be more exciting if there were regularly clowns belting around at 30mph while precariously balanced on a single wheel.

@q got it, switch to hypercapacitors for the Scottish release

@q @isotopp „hoverboard“ as in #BackToTheFuture?

@q Giraffe the train and don't leave that li-ion there?

@q From an electronics perspective I'm pretty sure there are power regulators in all those devices so they would appear to be regulated yes

If not would adding a 7805 fix it 8)

@q So ScotRail also forbids the train to be on the train, if it is a modern Battery/Electrified train

@q What about cameras?

@q Laptops, any modern bluetooth headsets & earphones...

@q So ... if you bring your registered e-scooter from Germany everything is fine ... ?

@q Did you say SCO Trail? That sounds like them.

Google is giving me nothing, but I'd hazard a guess that mobiles and cameras etc are covered by battery regulations - as the poster specifies unregulated batteries?

@q I've seen this and heard of ebike users being pissed off, but wondered, what do they do when someone has an electric wheelchair or mobility scooter?? Do they ask what type of battery it has? (breaching disability access laws if they did say no to board, of course).

@q “all unregulated devices” (which of course you knew anyway! ☺️)

@q CE mark = all good I assume.

@ret that almost never flies in my experience

@q I mean, so it shouldn't - you can self-certify. But that's really the only kind of "regulation" I can imagine they are referring to here. UL? Specific ENs? What else could they be talking about? Or is it just textual cover for "whatever we say"? I'd guess the latter.

@ret the latter

@q Yeah 100%. I'd have more respect if they just said that lol. It does indeed appear to prohibit mobile phones, smartwatches, headphones, etc.

@Athesis unclear

@FenTiger also Li-ion

@dascandy42 @q They are all regulated.

@krans @dascandy42 but that’s not what it says, it says no litithum ion devices, including unregulated ones

@q @krans @dascandy42 No it doesn’t. It says “all unregulated ….. including ….”

@JohnEastLothian @krans @dascandy42 “this includes”

@q @JohnEastLothian @krans @dascandy42 Exactly!
