Keep the AULA SC900 MAX and any loose 400mAh lithium cell in carry-on luggage, with a loose cell's contacts covered. Airlines generally bar loose lithium batteries from checked bags, and rules differ, so check yours before you fly. Evetech sells the SC900 MAX.
Most wireless mice travel without anyone giving the battery a second thought, because it is sealed inside the shell. The AULA SC900 MAX is different: its 400mAh lithium cell lifts out from under a cover on the base, and a spare cell can travel on its own. Flying with a lithium mouse battery, especially a loose one, deserves a little planning, since airlines treat spare lithium batteries more carefully than devices with a battery fitted.
Pack the SC900 MAX, and any loose 400mAh lithium cell, in your carry-on luggage rather than your checked bag, and cover a loose cell's contacts so they cannot touch metal. Airlines generally restrict loose lithium batteries in checked baggage, but the exact rules differ between carriers and change over time, so check your airline's current guidance before you fly. Evetech's 1 Year Local Warranty covers the mouse itself. The mouse costs R749 at Evetech.
Lithium batteries can, very rarely, overheat if they are damaged or short-circuited. In the cabin, a problem can be spotted and dealt with quickly. In the hold, it cannot. That is the general reasoning behind airline rules that keep spare lithium batteries out of checked luggage.
A mouse with its battery fitted, and a separate spare cell, may be treated differently by different airlines. Rather than guessing, keep both in your carry-on bag, where they are most likely to be acceptable, and read your airline's rules on batteries and electronics before the trip.
Leaving the cell fitted in the SC900 MAX is the simplest option. The battery sits under its cover on the base, protected from knocks and from anything metal in your bag. Set the switch on the base to off so the mouse does not wake up in transit.
If you carry a second cell, it travels loose, and that is the one that needs protecting.
The main risk with a loose battery is its contacts touching coins, keys or other metal objects and short-circuiting. A few simple precautions prevent that:
A 400mAh battery is small compared with a laptop or power bank battery. Airlines often set their rules by a battery's energy rating rather than its mAh figure alone, and AULA does not publish that rating for this cell. So do not assume size alone decides the rule. Check the airline's guidance, and if in doubt, ask the airline or the airport before you travel.
The 2.4GHz receiver is tiny and easy to lose in a bag. Keep it in a small zip pocket or a case with the mouse, and pack the USB-C cable alongside. The cable matters on a trip because it both charges the battery and works as a wired connection, at up to 8000Hz, if the cell runs low.
If you will use a laptop while travelling, remember the SC900 MAX also connects over Bluetooth, which needs no receiver at all. It works with Windows and macOS.
When you reach your destination:
At 62g all-in and 126 x 68 x 44mm, it slips into a laptop bag pocket without adding bulk. Compare portable options in Evetech's gaming mice, or see the full wireless mouse range.

It is the simplest option. The cell stays protected under its cover. Switch the mouse off on the base for the journey.
Keep it in its own bag or case, tape over the contacts, and keep it away from keys and coins.
Do not assume so. Airlines often use the battery's energy rating, which AULA does not publish, so check their guidance.
Look for any damage, refit the cell securely, choose your connection mode and charge if needed.
