Happy new year to all!

 

DOT 49 CFR Parts 171, 172, 173, and 175 concerning the shipment of lithium
batteries is in effect now.  Not being a battery or shipping expert, I’m
having a little trouble defining exactly the scope and definition.  My
interpretation has been that these batteries are not within the scope of this
requirement based on reading Part 171, but customers are asking additional
questions based on vague information from shipping companies’ web sites so
I’m looking for further clarification.

 

Are the coin cells that are typically used on computer motherboards for the
real time clock in scope?  I’ve looked at a couple of battery manufacturers
web sites trying to find out how many grams of lithium are in the typical 2032
battery but have not had much luck.
