Wonderful product! Used this at a convention as portable power to recharge my iPhone* during the day and to charge my iPhone at night in the hotel room. When done charging the phone it automatically charges itself, too. Previously used a portable Duracell pack but had to use a USB outlet adapter to charge that, too. It wasn't nearly as efficient (it needed to charge in an adapter not included next to the iphone charging in another adapter) and didn't hold as much power for portable use. Don't really know how much power this thing stores but it could take my phone from 5% to %100 with power left in it. I never completely killed it recharging my phone which I was using as an audio recorder in lectures. Only thing that could have made this better would have been an iPhone/iPod adapter for the cable. *had to use my own iPhone USB cable.

Excellent as a plug-in charger for my Samsung Galaxy S phone. Reserve power in internal battery is sufficient to recharge the phone at least 50%. Perfect for emergencies or travel.

It works well. Handy for when you want that last bit of charge but can't wait. Also, it reduces the number of devices you might need to carry since it both charges and provides auxiliary power. Would be nice if it could charge more than one USB device. Keep in mind, the battery in this unit has less capacity than those in many smartphones so it will not be able to provide a full charge unless you're just topping up or are plugged into the wall. For example, my Droid x's base battery has 1.5Ah. This unit's backup battery has 1.3Ah.

Great deal for what it is. Though the fact that the AC prongs do not fold up is a nuisance, the unit functions very well. It more than doubles the life of my iPod 4G battery.

Only charges my Motorola Atrix from about 15% to 40%. Not worth it.

Great product, it charges about 2 hours before it died.. i got 90% full for my Galaxy S.. i wish we can hide the charge prawn, it's still small enough to put in pocket for portability.

Excellent backup source for my Samsung cell phone, iPod 4th gen 32GB and Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset. WAY more reliable than the CoolerMaster Choixx I have that cost 4x this one!

Wow! This little gadget is a winner. It charges iPods, Touches, and even iPads. With the interchangeable tips, it can handle even more than that. Solid construction, easy to use, worth the price.

It's a great idea and good form-factor, but unfortunately the current output is not up to snuff for the latest generation of higher-drain mobile phones. 5V/500mA is only able to trickle-charge my Nexus S, and only when it's not actively in use. If I'm using it, the phone continues to discharge, albeit more slowly. If this could do 700mA-1A out I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!
