<p class=MsoNormal>Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m a grad student and using an Arduino with some
sensors attached as part of my grad school project. I’d like to
take it with me on vacation to work on it some and was hoping some of you had experience
in this area. I don’t think they are specifically disallowed by the
TSA, but do you get the back room special treatment for taking a
microcontroller with you as a carry on or in your luggage? I’d like
to minimize the pain since I will have to make connections and don’t want
to miss those because of hours of security BS. <o:p></o:p></p>
