Route-specific signals

These page-specific checks make this verdict about this model, this departure country, and this airline, not a generic power-bank answer.

  • UGREEN Nexode 145W 25000 (PB205) is recorded at 90.00 Wh and 25000 mAh, so the capacity check is tied to this exact catalog model.
  • China departures can trigger China 3C evidence checks in addition to Wh limits.
  • AirAsia (AK) is evaluated as the operating carrier, with its published dangerous-goods policy included in the citation set.
  • UGREEN Nexode 145W 25000 (PB205) has no active recall link in this catalog record, so the verdict is driven by capacity, route, airline, label, and rule evidence.

Allowed in carry-on. Final decision rests with airline and security staff.

Common questions for this exact trip

Is this a guarantee at the airport?

No. This is an informational verdict based on published sources. Airline and security staff retain final authority.

Why can the same power bank get different answers by country or airline?

Power-bank rules combine global battery limits with country overlays, airline policies, storage rules, and recall notices.

When should I re-check this route?

Re-check close to departure, especially when the trip involves China, Thailand, Korea, a recalled model, or a battery near a capacity limit.
