I love that site, never ceases to amuse me! it is the most truly god-awful, bot-ridden thing I see on the internet after YouTube comments.
“That is a great price for a set of XYZ. Thank you for sharing this offer”
Better to go via a CompleteSavings link if you are member, rather than giving that site the referral money. CS are doing 12% on ebay. Meant my latest Airtags cost £70, which is decent.
Out of interest, what do people say when asked at baggage checkin about batteries in the case? I was returning from a weekend break a month back, and as they were weighing the bag they asked whether there were any batteries in the case. As I didn’t have any in there (for clarity, no AirTag either), I correctly answered no, but what do others say at this point if there is an AirTag?

They are mainly concerned about large batteries.
You can find small ones in many things we carry in checkin – toys, electric shavers, torchlights etc.@Steve This is an addendum to the IATA dangerous goods regulations that permit carriage, I believe most airlines have followed this guidance now.

Ah, although I was aware of the “must be completely switched off” rule, I hadn’t realised there was a minimum battery size / weight for that to apply, so the AirTag doesn’t need to be switched off, which is useful to know. However, how should one actually respond to the question “Are there any batteries in the case?”, as I could see “I have no devices with batteries above the lithium content weight as specified in the IATA Safe Transit of Dangerous Goods by Air specification” as not exactly helping with a speedy checkin process.
@Steve Technically you must comply with the airlines policy, some like BA have updated the list. Have a look here under batteries under 100Wh.
In other areas the authority has provided the guidance, this is the FAA PackSafe list, have a look at the notes near the top.
I’m doing very well using my eufy smarttrack tags and a £30 iPhone I carry with me for tracking them when travelling. Well worth not the not having to kill my productivity by using an iPhone as my main phone or using non-find my products and much cheaper overall than airtags.

Its all fun and games until they pull the plug on development support like they did with tile tags (one particular one, maybe more)
Also carrying an old iPhone (or any phone) is not effective as it loses battery capacity over time/usage.Just had a look on amazon and it says eufy smart tags doesnt work worldwide?

Just to note that the eufy tags don’t have precision location due to the missing ultra wide band chip. The effect is that the iPhone can just tell you that the eufy tag is near, it can tell you the distance and direction of AirTags.
Yes, you lose ultra-wide but they have worked worldwide for me.
An iPhone battery will easily last me a 3 month trip turning it on when I need to track. And there’s no solution other than that whether you’re using Eufy or AirTags.
Update about Android Find My Device Network
https://blog.google/products/android/android-find-my-device/
Seems like we are getting closer to a superior network especially outside of the global north.
AirTags currently 4 for £99 at John Lewis, cw £119 via Apple. Looks like the price has gone up a bit from recent months. I haven’t been tracking prices though, is this the new normal?
Amazon 4 for £89 this morning
AirTag deals often found on hukd website. Check there before buying.
