Never any issues in the US. Only had issues in Indonesia before because they didn't know what an electric toothbrush was (which makes sense, I don't think people there really use it).

The Canadians are definitely nicer but they seem even more incompetent than TSA.
China had no problem with identifying an electric toothbrush on the x-ray.
