Which is exactly my question just a bit up-thread. I have one of these:



If you press the button with nothng plugged into it, one to four of those LEDs will light up... which is not incompatible with arming a device for spontaneous energetic disassembly.

Has anyone had one of those through security @ LHR or anywhere else, for that matter, since the change? They've never looked at it twice previously.
