        Fabulous... It looks pretty simple- I only hope the TSA knows this!

            RB ..The question was asked to prompt conversation about shipping LiPO batteries on commercial airliners I used 5,000 mAh as probably the biggest battery you'd want to ship certainly submarines would be more in the two to three thousand amp hour range but to your question, a 5000 milliamp hour 2s lipo fully charged is 42 w h storage charge it would be in the 35 to 37 wh range.
