Never have to worry about a dead cellphone, tablet or MP3 player again, with the PowerTrip and PowerStick+ Portable Chargers. Read how you can WIN one yourself!
I think most of us know the heartache of Dead Battery Syndrome. My iphone has become such a lifeline and important part of my life keeping me connected to friends and family and allows me to work while I’m away from home.
So my biggest fear is having my phone die when I’m out and about. When I travel, I have the biggest anxiety about seeing the dreaded 10% battery warning! You can always carry a charger cord in your purse or car, but lets face it – if you are lucky enough to find an outlet while your out, you usually can’t sit by it while your phone charges for an hour or more.
So I’m a HUGE fanatic about keeping a car charger in my car and a portable charger in my purse!
I recently had the chance to try out the PowerTrip and PowerStick+, just in time for my recent trip to Austin for BlogHer Food for Whirlpool.
One of the really cool things about these chargers is than can be branded with your logo or favorite photo!
The PowerTrip Charger:
This charger looks like a white plastic brick, and is about the size of a deck of cards and it’s the cream of the portable chargers crop! This charger can be charged from three different sources: a wall outlet, a computer’s USB jack or ….and I love this one……. the sun. That’s right! there is a solar panel on the back for topping off the charge.
The PowerTrip has a huge backup battery: 6,000 milliamps, enough to recharge an iPad once or a smartphone three times. This comes in REALLY handy if you have friends or family with you who are jealous when they find out you just charged your phone while riding a roller coaster and their phone is about to die 😉
This charge also doubles as a flash drive, with four, eight or 16 gigabytes of storage! Just a nice little added bonus.
The PowerTrip is super easy to use and has a handy little gauge on the side shows you how much charge remains in the gizmo.
It comes with three cords of its own — the traditional Apple 30-pin connector, mini-USB and micro-USB . Since I have the iPhone 5, I just use the cord that came with my phone.
The PowerTrip is a little pricier than most chargers, starting at $99 – but it does SO much more than most chargers and it’s WAY worth it, in my opinion! Buy the PowerTrip
PowerStick+
If you’re not a fan of carrying around a larger more heavy charger, or want to keep the cost down, then the PowerStick+ is for you!!
The PowerStick+ is the only portable power charger that features flash memory ranging in capacities from 4GB to 16GB. So, like the PowerTrip, you can take advantage of this technology to transfer images and files to the PowerStick+ charger.
You charge the PowerStick+ by simply popping it into your USB port and let it charge up. A fuel gauge lets you monitor its progress. Then connect the Powerstick+ to virtually any portable device – and it transfers the charge while allowing you to use that device even as it’s being charged. The PowerStick+ comes with three connectors: micro-USB, mini-USB and Apple 32-pin. For iPhone 5 users, the PowerStick+ represents an immediate charging solution.
Buy The PowerStick+ (starting at $69)
You will quickly realize you can’t leave home without one of these chargers and they make great gifts, especially branded with a logo or picture….. since everyone needs one and hardly anyone has them.
WIN IT!
With vacation time here, it’s the perfect time to make sure you have a portable charger in your arsenal! The good people at PowerStick.com would like to give one lucky TidyMom reader a PowerTrip Charger with 4GB of flash memory branded with your favorite photo or logo!! That’s a $109 value and will be worth it’s weight in gold!!

I am notorious for forgetting to charge my phone. My husband usually tracks it down for me at the end of the day to plug it in, but he’s overseas for another 6 weeks, and I am hopeless. This would eliminate those ‘whoops, my battery is dead’ moments, which are happening at an alarming rate in his absence.
My phone battery always dies at about the most inopportune times! I didn’t even know something like this existed! Thanks so much!!
SOOO timely as my phone ran out of power tonight when we went out for dinner! I would love to have this and I would put a picture of my kids on it 🙂
Because of my battery life, I need to be able to get phone calls from my ill Mother.
Thank you so much for a great giveaway and a great party Cheryl!
xo, Tanya
My phone is always dying. I would love a charger.
LOVE this, it’s perfect that it charges from the sun! What a great item to giveaway 🙂
I would LOVE it cus I’m always on the go and remembering to charge my phone the night before is the hardest thing sometimes you know?! I would probably use a picture of an artwork or a picture of a quote!
Why wouldn’t I want a portable charger?? Such a lifesaver!
Thanks for this giveaway! It will be great to have this portable battery with me!

Need the charger on the go ! Phone is always low on battery when most needed, especially with the kids that are forever using it for games and myself who is always getting up to date on TidyMom and Pinterest and FB !
i almost forgot ! …i would get a picture of the OCEAN and a cocktail as the cover !
Would love this for traveling. I ran out of batteries at Disneyland…so many missed photo opps!
my cell phone battery is always low this would be great to have with me. maybe a photo of the shore or a lighthouse
I’d like this because my phone is my go-to when I’m bored or waiting in a doctor’s office. Those games use up a lot of battery power!!
Hmmm I’d put something Sherlockian on the USB!
Wow…this would be great for all those late nights at work.
my glove box latch just broke so i cant charge my phone in the car anymore. i need this! thanks for the giveaway!
This would be so great, as my phone always runs out of power when I am out and about!
I would use it for my conference travel. Batteries are critical when you travel. I have a favorite picture of my kids I would have put on it. Thanks for the great giveaway.
My husband travels a lot and it would be great for him to have this. I would put our picture on it!
Hi! For some reason when I left my comment last night I did it on Pinterest.:-/ so. If I won I would give it to my grandson to give to his Poppy! Love this.
I would love this charger for travel! I would put a family photo on it.
Thanks!
thanks for the party, cheryl!!! and this portable power charger looks awesome!!!! you know i love these things, but it being solar charged – so cool! would love to have this.
the charger would be great to have since we get up and go a lot! we can share it with the kids! i would put our last name on it! THANKS !
Oh my this momma of 3 teens needs this device. I had heard of these but never looked into buying one. I love that you can add a logo and would and a MOM logo so the teens remember that this belongs to ME. We could all use it but it gets returned to me. lol Thanks for the weekly linky, too!
I just started backpacking at the age of 45 :)……. And I am loving it! However my biggest fear is getting lost and no cell/ GPS. I’ve looked at solar chargers, but nothing has caught my eye. I would LOVE this power trip charger!
A portable charger is a must have when you travel frequently. My son and his family live in Kansas so keeping kids entertained in the back seat during the trips is a must. With only one “outlet” in the car, a portable charger could be a lifesaver. Great review.
Would love the power stick charger, my phone is always dead…lol. Thanks for the opportunity. Would want a picture of my kids on it.
Oh yes, I could use one of these! Especially when we’re away from home. I am always using Instagram, FB and taking photos so the battery drains down fast. 🙁
Love your site!! I would love one of these portable chargers because I would send it to my son that just moved to N.Carolina. He is always forgetting to charge his phone so if he had this it would be great. I would put a pic of my hubby & kids on it. Thanks
Yep. Definitely need one of these bad boys. With the urchin playing games on it, social media for me, and emails to hubs it dies so fast!
This is awesome! I need one of these badly!
I soooo need this!
This would be great to win! We go state camping, which means no electricity at the site. This would be very helpful. I would find a picture of my 2 girls to use. Thanks for the chance
Ooo, Cheryl I need that!
I NEED this! I travel a lot and I would love one with a picture of peas:)
I would win this for my husband! He has his own business and is always on his phone, which is always dying! So, if I won, I would totally get his logo put on it!
I’m currently looking for work and use my cell for all the calls. A dying battery is no bueno.
Imagine not having to sit on the floor near an outlet at the airport during a layover just to charge your cellphone! Totally worth it! I would put a picture of my puppies on it because I’d miss them on my trip.
This would be awesome! I’m on the go all the time with my three kids, going here, there, and everywhere, especially in summer. I use my phone a lot (mostly for pictures, lol!) and this would be great to have with me so that I don’t have to worry about the phone running down. I could also use it for the ipod the kids share while we’re out and about!
This would be so helpful to have…it would be great to not have to worry about my phone dying when I am at my kid’s sporting events. My phone only stays charged for about 3 hours at a time. I would put a picture of my kids on it!
My phone dies on me EVERY SINGLE DAY! It would be amazing to be able to charge my phone by the power of the sun. I would put my business logo on it for branding.
I would love one of these.. since we are out and about almost everyday , and sometimes I forget to charge my phone. This would be a big help especially in the summertime..
I would love to win this portable charger for me and my daughter, her phone ALWAYS dies. It would be great to have. I am sure she would want to put the United States Marine Corps Logo on it – because her boyfriend is in the Marines and they haven’t seen each other for almost a year now.
Thanks so much for the great party, Cheryl! I missed linking up last week. It’s good to be back. Have Friday to you!
I would love to win this for my sons and put a wheel horse logo on it or our last name initial.
This would be a great for our emergency kits. Our natural disasters are hurricanes. We don’t live in the evacuation zones so our “emergency” is usually just being without power for a few days. I would put a pic of my kids.
This would be so amazing to win. We are constantly on the go camping, fishing, swimming…all sorts of outdoor activities – summer and winter! Having one of these would be a life saver with not having a full charge when you need it!! There is always a couple times when you’re out and a battery dies on ya!! We’ve all been there and done that, and miss the chance for a great photo opportunity. I would love to win one and have my family name on it!!
I would love to have one because I am always forgetting to charge my phone or forget to pack my charger when we go on trips. As a teacher I’m always in need of my phone so I can contact parents when a need arises. Would love to have my family name on it.
This is awesome! I sure hope I win this.
