Caught by metal detector

The metal detector at the train station in China did not detect the DL2000 with the metallic electrodes installed - but the one at the Chinese embassy in Hong Kong did! DL2000 was in the pocket, fortunately :)

Next metal detector we find we'll try to go through with and without the electrodes.

Whatever we do over here is no guarantee that metal detectors in the west won't catch the product. Your mileage may vary. This is an electronic product with metallic parts and as a theoretical default metal detectors should detect it.

If in practice you can sometimes get away with it then great - and if we can make sometimes into most times by reducing electrode dimensions then even better. But if not, there's not much to be disappointed about - electronic components are indeed metallic or they wouldn't work. Plus the backscatter machines they're using nowadays to take your naked pictures would reveal the device anyway - and that is true of the plastic CB devices alone as well.

We'll keep reporting whenever we acquire new data.
