If you need to take your Brompton Electric on a train or other forms of transport; please check with the service provider before you travel for advice on any restrictions on the transportation of lithium batteries. It is not permissible to take the battery on a commercial aircraft.

You may be able to acquire the correct packaging from your local Brompton Electric C Line retailer. It is advisable that this is requested ahead of your intended shipment date as the retailer may need to first acquire the packaging from Brompton.
