mophie - Juice Pack Powerstation External Battery for Most USB Devices - Red

The Gen 2 Powerstation packs 4000 mAh which should fully charge an iPhone 5 ALMOST 3 times over. On a full charge and at about 10% battery on my phone, my Powerstation was nearly dead when my iPhone got to about 85%. Granted, I was using my phone for SOME texting while it was charging, but services such as WiFi, data, Bluetooth were all disabled, but that shouldn't have depleted most of the Powerstations charge before getting my phone to only 85%. For those who might we wondering, it does not allow pass-through charging (charging the Powerstation AND your device at the same time), and it only charges via a micro USB cable. I think a better design could have allowed for direct wall charging to minimize the use of cables. On a positive note, this does what it's supposed to do and would definitely work MUCH better if you enable Airplane Mode while charging to get the most out of the device. You can connect this to a wall outlet, a computer, or even your car to charge it if you want. This device is also pretty light and you wouldn't really notice the weight if you were charging your device in a bag. It also also has a pretty neat texture that seems to prevent it from scratches and smudges.

I got it in special so it was an amazing price plus it's a really good battery. It can charge my phone entirely and then some. (I have an iPhone 7plus). I like that it's not bulky, very portable and it has a pretty nice look to it.

While the best way is a Mophie case, this is a great option for those (like myself) that have a non-mophie case that they prefer. This fits nicely in a pocket or bag and does an effective job at putting you back in the game when you're running low.

Good charger, power up fast Good product good juice.

I bought these on sale just before Christmas for stocking stuffers for the kids. I assumed this model was being discontinued when I bought them because of the price, but I now wonder if the weren't discontinued a while ago and have been sitting on a shelf for far to long. My wife has had a Mophie XL for about 3 years now and it is awesome so I know they make a good product, but like I said I think these are just to old. The two that do work after being charged used about 50% of the pack charging a cell phone from about near 60% to 100%.

Not being able to charge your phone when it's flat and trying to make a call is frustrating. I got this power station to solve that problem. It works great. I get about two full charges on my phone. It does charge an iPad about 25%, which is useful when working on a project and need more juice and have no where to plug into. This power station is about the size of an iPhone 4 and isn't too bulky. It charges the phone in a few hours. A lot faster than I expected. It recharges from your phone charger with the usb cable that comes with the power station and recharges pretty fast. It's also safe to top off. It is a little pricey, but worth it when you need to charge your phone and have not an outlet in site to do so.

I like the convenience of this charger. I can take it on road trips because my daughter usually needs her iPhone charged. It is capable of charging from two USB cords at a time which I like plus has extra charging power in case we're on the road a long time. My car only allows for one device to operate at a time so I can't use my 12 volt adapter without losing my wireless bluetooth music. This was the perfect solution. The only challenge so far is, it is a little slow on up charging a device.

I bought this to take on camping and kayak trips. I have used it on 3 trips now and it operates as expected. Easy to pack, small form factor, and delivers a fairly fast charge. I have found that it will drain if you leave the USB cable in without another device connected to charge. The only thing I would change is to add some additional granularity to the charge indicators. A small display with an actual percentage charge left. The 4 led lights can sometimes mislead you. But overall that is a small issue.
