I was not aware that TSA ID checkers would grant you Pre-Check / Pre-Check Lite just by showing your GE card. I wonder if this would be the case with a NEXUS card?
However, my experience with Pre-Check Lite is that one is required to remove liquids/gels and laptops. The rule seems to be that since you are holding a "Lite" card, you yourself get the special treatment (shoes and belt on, WTMD instead of body scanner) but since your bags go through the scanner on their own, the standard rules apply to them.
