    This addendum makes changes to the Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air. It replaces an entry in Table 8-1 related to portable electronic devices and spare batteries. The new entry increases the allowed watt-hour rating for lithium ion batteries in such devices from 100Wh to 160Wh when carried by passengers as carry-on baggage, and allows passengers to carry up to two individually protected spare batteries exceeding 100Wh but not 160Wh. All devices and batteries must still meet the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria requirements.
