If you can fit it all into one bag which fits the airline's
requirements, you'll be fine. Anything else, and you take a chance, and
the odds aren't in your favour at the moment.

Correct. All liquids must be in separate containers, the whole contents
of each _container_ not being more than 100ml, and in a sealed plastic
bag (ziplock kind.) I've never taken more than half a dozen, but I think
the limit is on 10 discrete items- again, none can exceed 100ml
separately. Electronics aren't a problem, but might get an extra look
from security. Mine have, at any rate.
