Posting lipos: any updates? Courier costs?

Hi all

Last post on the 'sticky' for this in 'for sale' is 2013...

Any updates?

Basically I have two great saddle packs I'd like to sell for a reasonable price, but no idea how to post them.

What are couriers charging for a single saddle pack?

Royal Mail a total no go still?

Ive sent parcels with lipos in by collect plus, they did not have a problem and i told them what was in the package.

Cheers

Yeah Royal Mail still no go
All depends on the courier service you intend to use.
Sending lipos is a mine field. In my line of work I have to do dangerous goods training and when it comes to lipos it's all about the output and the lithium content a pain in the backside. Just look around at different couriers and ask them the question.

Hi
I have posted lipo via royal mail, simply clarified that batteries are in the parcel, they attached a warning label and off they went. No issues

Good luck

The RM website would suggest this is ok as long as the warning label is attached and the packaging instructions are adhered to. Not tried though and so can't confirm this.

I've always posted lipos by MyHermes and never had a problem but there not the best.

Ordered a new Lithium Makita 18v battery for my drills. Just had delivery confirmation that it will be posted by MyHermes too.

So must be ok as this place only sells batteries.
