Funny story - i had precisely the same thing happen in
Addis Abbaba (sp?)...Got called down to Xray...they
pointed to what they were seeing on the screen - a 24
pack of AA cells, and asked me what it was...I told
them it was 24 AA batteries....They said, "okay," and
sent the back on it's  way!! Never looked in it. Now
THAT's security...;-)
