It seems you're right. It is allowed by FAA but disallowed by ICAO. I'm not sure I would take any chances with a 300$ device though
Passengers can also bring two (2) larger lithium-ion batteries (more than 8 less than 25 grams of equivalent lithium content per
battery or about 100-300 watt hours per battery) in their carry-on.

According to their FAQ:
Can I bring a Reactor on a plane?
Yes. Per FAA rules every traveler can carry-on up to two Reactor sized batteries.
[NB I'm not saying I believe them - I wouldn't go anywhere near an airport with one of these things.]
