People send battery laden electronics through the mail all the time. It's about all Sparkfun ever ships. Doesn't seem to be a problem.


Actually,'bout that: The USPS has banned the mailing of batteries, not because they're worried someone will disguise a bomb as one, but because they have a habit exploding in atmospheric changes.


You can certainly mail batteries, just with some restrictions.
