Be sure you can turn the stuff on (bring the right plugs, converters) so you
can show them what it is. Phone your travel agency to ask about this. They
will know what you have to do.

Bring a copy (or original) of Elektron's invoices. At least ask for
information at a customs office or chamber of commerce. Some countries make
problems if you don't follow their rules. Sometimes you need some special
forms for this kind of stuff.
