Here is a story: I, my wife and 2 kids went on our first holiday in 4 years (2 years ago) to the states (nyc). Upon arrival I was taken to an office for questioning, 2 hours and my wife and kids were waiting without info by the luggage. I'm a Swedish citizen but Iraqi born. They had confused me with someone that was on a blacklist apparently and told me that I can now go to my family and enjoy my holiday. During our 2 week stay I had almost 90% battery life on my phone every night before we turned in but when I woke up in the morning the phone was dead and hot to touch (Galaxy s5). I thought the phone was on its last legs so I just kept charging it and didn't think much of it. Once we got back home I saw a video on Facebook about listening devices in smart phones....they are attached to the batteries (under the wrapping). Of course I had to call this bluff and opened up my phone, took out the battery, took off the wrapping and I was stunned to see there actually was a listening device! So my battery was draining over night in nyc due to big brother's eves dropping!! Hence, it dawned on me why airports put up signs saying "make sure your phones fully charged and switched off"...I always thought that was a weird thing to demand :/ Check you phones and you'll see what I'm talking about.

The wheels look awsome by the way
