Biggest issue I had was occasionally, they would look at it funny going through security and give it extra screening. Fits pretty well in the overhead too, especially laying upside down, so bags can be stowed above it.

Battery size is the issue. There is, essentially, a 100-watt hour limit. Anything over that and you need explicit airline approval, and you probably won’t get it. And if you do, TSA might not care.
