smart bag

Smart-luggage maker Raden has folded after airlines clamped down on battery transport. The New York startup said the new battery-related rules "severely impacted the usefulness of our products, their value to our customers, our business performance, and ultimately the ability to continue operating."

Last year, several major U.S. carriers announced a ban on smart luggage whose batteries can't be removed. The ban began in January 2018, and now, a few months later, prominent smart luggage company Bluesmart has been forced to shutter its operations. The company will no longer support its smart luggage.

The Poros Tetra backpack features integrated dual charging for your laptop, tablet, and mobile phone.
