11. Per United Nations material classification UN3499, all
Maxwell ultracapacitors have less than 10 Wh capacity
to meet the requirements of Special Provisions 361. Both
individual ultracapacitors and modules composed of those
ultracapacitors shipped by Maxwell can be transported
without being treated as dangerous goods (hazardous
materials) under transportation regulations.
