This charger is great! Has dual ports & holds a charge all day. Only drawback is that it is very heavy. Carry it in my pocket at work when iPhone battery dies. Kind of Bulky. That is reason for 4 star rating. Otherwise it's awesome!

I -love- that this has a LCD readout for battery life left! I strongly dislike those units with only empty/half/full led indicators because you never quite know what's there.
It charges via micro USB, it would have been nice if it came with a charger as well as a carry case to keep it from getting scratched up.
The body of it is made out of plastic, and it seems to be rather soft so it will get scratched up over time, but due to the cost of the unit I'm not worried.

I purchased this portable charger because I had encountered a situation where my cell phone had run out of power while I was using it. This charger came pre-charged, which was handy because I picked it up en route to a class where I wound up using it. It has 2 USB charging connections, one designed for iDevices and one for other devices (although, I used the iDevice connection to charge my Android phone in a hurry ;-). It's slim design, although a bit longer than some other chargers, makes it fit nicely in one of my courier bag pockets. After I had mostly discharged this portable charger, I plugged it in and it charged faster than my cell phone does.
In short, I have used this portable charger often and am very pleased with it. The only "downside" is that it holds about 2 full charges, effectively one for my phone and one for my wife's. As a result, I now have a second multi-port portable charger that can provide more charges. However, I still carry this one when traveling because it is lighter and more compact than my other one.

Phone batteries are such a pain sometimes, even with a lot of the junk apps turned off, using GPS is a big power drain. I drive for a living in company vehicles (most of which have no lighter port for chargers) so I bought this device to make sure I'd still have a usable phone after a couple hours of GPS, and it works well. The power in the pack is enough to recharge a smartphone twice over or keep a GPS active phone running for a few hours. I only really use the 2.4 port but some devices might need the lesser output of the 1.0 port.

I have been really happy with this external battery. I appreciate the display that indicates the amount of power remaining. The two input ports is also helpful when needing to charge different types of units.

This charger is perfect for someone on the go. The only negative is that it's slightly heavy if you are putting in a jacket pocket.

I bought the portable charger for travel since I was going on vacation with my family. Worked as expected. It can fully charge my sons Kindle Fire HD or fully charge 2 iphones.
