Evening

Need to post some lights and battery tomorrow AM.
Always use Hermes but batteries are on the NO-NO list (though I have done this before with them).
Who have you used to do some heinous crimes? Was about to buy service but was alerted before pulling trigger.
Answers on a very quick postcard though here is fine 😉

Cheers

I think I used Collect+ - one of them was OK with LiIon batteries as long as some huge sticker went on the side.

I used Royal Mail. They're fine as long as it lights AND a battery. Just tell them at the counter and they'll put a sticker on the parcel.

My light & battery pack arrived through Royal Mail (1st class Recorded) with no issues. So I'd assume RM would be fine since they were bought new from a business?

RM changed there policy last year you can send the lights and battery as long as they are plug in together!!!seems a bit strange to me but HAY HO they are a strange company these days.

I've sent lithium batteries with royal mail, there's packing advice on their website.

I'm glad i've seen this thread; i was just about to send a li-on battery to MTB batteries in a regular jiffy bag. Sounds like it might be a bad idea. Do RM scan the post in some way?
