+FAA rules on installed batteries are that devices containing lithium batteries (laptops, phones, and also tails) can be checked, but carry-on is preferred to prevent damage/fire. There is a battery capacity limit generally allowing capacities under 100 Wh. The tails, with two 11.1 Wh batteries, have a total capacity of 22.2 Wh, well under the device capacity limits. Travel rules and restrictions should be reviewed in advance, but the Tail Co devices fall well under realistic limits being an "installed, non-removable battery" and a very modest capacity that should be acceptable anywhere a cellphone or laptop would.
