Pouring one out for my cordless Black and Decker electric screwdriver.

Used to travel with it because it was small and light and it worked well for racking network equipment.

It was a cheap piece of junk. But it did the job. Until one day TSA decided I couldnt bring it any more. It was under 7" but that wasn't good enough.

Told me I could check it. It would cost more for me to check a bag than for me to replace it.

Still upset about it.
