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 hate a dead phone battery – this is such a great idea!
I neeed that! I remember your IG pic of it and thought how awesome it looked. I would probably put a pic of my kids on it. Great giveaway Cheryl! xo
I would love to win this PowerTrip Portable Charger, so I would never miss any calls or the chance to take that unforgettable picture of my family, because my phone would always be charged. And I would put a Pink Ribbon on it for Breast Cancer Awareness
This would be absolutely wonderful to have, whose phone doesn’t die just when you need it! I would put a picture of my kids on it! Thanks
I always run out of power when on vacation, so this would be perfect. I would probably put an image of my initials on the charger.
A portable charger would be SOOOO useful!
Thanks for the giveaway! We are going on vacation in July and my battery always runs down quick then. I would probably just put my initials on it.
Gosh I would love to have one of these.
I’ve gone as far as plugging in my phone at a restaurant because it was about to die. That was probably going a little too far.
I’d put a photo of my 88 year old Mom on it to remind me to be strong every day.
Love all your great ideas on your blog! Thanks for giveaways!!
Well isn’t that a handy little thing. I would love to win that because we are often out in the middle of nowhere up here & it would be great to still be able to charge things while out exploring in the wilderness.
This would be great to have! My son just sucked my battery dry last night playing games and I ended up with a dead phone. I would probably put a cute picture of my sons and husband on it. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to win this as we always have a phone or tablet on low battery in our house. I would probably put a pic of my kids on it.
By 5:00 each day my phone is on the edge of its battery life, so this would be perfect! I’d put a picture of my husband and I on mine!
I need this so much, I am always losing things and I could keep this one in my purse
Grandkids if I can
My husband needs this for when he is working on the farm! He gets plenty of sunlight to be able to charge the battery and uses his phone nonstop while working. I guess I would let him pick out the picture ;).
Who doesn’t want more power!? Id would love to have a portable charger! I would put a picture of our family brand on it!
Love this!
would love this! always running low on battery and about to welcome a newborn into this world so am sure i’ll be forgetting to charge at times so this would be so helpful! i might do a monogram as a picture!
I don’t have a great way to charge my phone at work so my phone is always hanging on to dear life by the time I leave so this would be fantastic! I would put a little pic of my dog on it and would make me smile throughout the day.
This would be so helpful when I travel! I would probably put my initials.
This looks great. I would like if for the times there is no place to charge. We do a lot of trips to areas where there is no electricity. It would also be nice to have when the power goes out, due to the monsoon season, in AZ. I would have a family picture on it.
My husband I travel so much for work so this would be WONDERFUL! Thank you 🙂
OMG! What an amazing giveaway! This will come in so handy for so many people. I would be lying if I said I didn’t want that person to be me! Thanks for the chance 🙂
This would be great for travelling…
I would so get this for my mom-in-law. She is always on the go. Not sure what pic she would like on it though. Maybe something about family because family is everything. 🙂
I am always forgetting to charge my phone!! I think a family picture would be nice on it. Thanks so much for the giveaway.
Because my daughter keeps taking my charger
It seems one of our devices is always running out of battery! This would be wonderful at track meets especially!
This would be great because my kids are always running down my batteries. I’d probably just put my initials on it. 🙂
I would love to win the PowerTrip so that when my son’s iPod dies we don’t have a meltdown in the middle of the grocery store 🙂 The would surely keep mommy and daddy happy and food in the house. As far as a picture, I would probably put an ultrasound picture on it so that down the road when my son and baby-on-the-way ask whose picture it is, I can be elusive and spare feelings. So excited!
Oh I need this!! I always have my iPad and iPhone with me and my 6 year old is on them, interchangeably. When I get around to using them – the battery is low! I would love to put my daughter’s picture on it – she would LOVE that. Of course, then she would think the charger is hers as well. LOL! Thanks for the chance to win.
I keep chargers (wall & car) with me at all times. Constantly in need. Hate when I forget to grab. I would put pic of grandkids!
Oh my gosh, my phone battery is always dead. I need this.
I would out a picture of my 2 year old grandson on this.
These power strips sound Awesome! I would love to win one so I could give it to my son (U.S. Army!!!!!) so he (and I) won’t have to worry about his phone not being charged. That would be so great for all of us – to be able to stay in touch when we want and when he can. The picture I would love to put on it would either be one of my son and me when he was a little boy or of he and his two little boy joys. Thanks so much for sponsoring this give-away – it’s really neat. Hope I win! Good luck to everyone
Going on vacation in December and this would be great to take along. I have been doing a little research on which ones would be best, so this post is very timely. I would put a picture of my sweet grand kids on it.
I need this so much!!! My phone barely stays alive for more than a couple hours and then dies. And it dies at the most inconvenient times-when I desperately need it. Like driving down to visit my sister every other night, in the dark 100 miles away from home or help. I would love to have this little safety net and know I will never have a dead phone again.
Winning a portable charging system would be a “life saver” for the times I am in the wilderness and my cel phone dies. Would love the convenience of the solar charger.
I would love to win this charger because I use my phone constantly for email, etc. It would be great to be able to recharge wherever I am! I would probably put a picture of my rescue dog on it. Thanks for the chance to win!
I would love this because I find that I get low on my battery all the time and I don’t always have a place to charge it when it need it!
A picture of my kids taken last Christmas!
I’d love to take it to Disney! I think I’d put mouse ears on it!
My husband needs this! He gets nervous anytime his cell phone battery drops below half charged. He would love this. He’s a Clemson tiger fan so a tiger paw image would be perfect.
Mine would have a Clemson Tiger Paw!
My phone is always dead when I need it. The kids seem to always play with it and use up the battery! This would be the best thing ever!!! This would be great going on road trips and weekend getaways .
Would LOVE to win thischarger always going to use phone and battery going dead.
This is exactly what I need…since much of my summer is spent out of town watching my high schooler play summer club baseball (and reading the TidyMom blog, in between innings, of course) the battery gets drained really quick!
We travel somewhere almost every single weekend so this would be such a lifesaver for me! I would probably put a picture of my boys on it!
With 8 cell phones in our family, this would be a life saver!! I would put a pic of all my kids on it 🙂
I need something like this badly! I am always on the go with 3 girls playing various sports in the summer plus taking my dog for her daily walks. I would put a picture of my family on mine… they are the reason I keep going! 🙂
I need it because i cant always find an outlet and I would put my family pic on it
