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 would give this to my daughter as she is always needing to recharge her phone. I am sure she would put a picture of her daughter on it from her first sleep over…tonight!
I would love to win this for those days where I run out of the house forgetting to charge my phone. I would put a picture of my husband and four boys on it!
I have been wanting a portable charger, and I would LOVE to win this! My iPhone is several years old, and it doesn’t hold a charge like it used to. Winning this would allow me to keep this phone quite a lot longer! I would love it with the flowers picture on it. 🙂
I am constantly trying to find a place to charge my iphone! This would be perfect! I would customize it with a pic of my kiddos.
I’m always out and about, having power on the go would be such a relief. I’d use a picture of my puppy-face, his cute and goofy grin always brings a smile to my face.
I’ve needed this so many times. This summer is going to be busy and it would be nice to have this in my purse. I would put a picture of our family. Thank you for making this available. Hope you have a fun summer!
When I´m out with my girls having fun, is pretty difficult to charge your dying phone, so this would be great. I would definetly put a picture of me with my 3 girls
It would be great to have when traveling!!
I am constantly out of the office and never near a plug!
I need this for all of our traveling this summer. Would come in handy. I would put a picture of my family.
I desperately need this bc I work at school, where the batteries drain very quickly. I am forever trying to rush home to charge my phone. I would like a Georgia “G”
Oh I would use this all the time! Just got a new phone and have no car charger. Would put a photo of my two granddaughters on it. And I could take my iPad with me in the car! How neat!
I love it because of the convince! I put put a picture of my kids on it!
This would be so handy when traveling.
My girls are very active so we are always on the go, between 2 soccer teams, competitive gymnastics, softball, basketball, high school mascot, band, etc. Not to mention the activities that my husband and I are involved in. Unfortunately we aren’t always able to stay together and I like to stay in touch with them. This sure would take a lot of stress off my shoulders about keeping a charge on my phone. I have the best picture of my hubby and our girls being silly to put on it!!
I would love to win this portable charger. I frequently let me phone get down too low if I’ve been out or am away from home, then there isn’t always an outlet nearby. We have started traveling from Maine to Florida in the last couple years, if I don’t remember to use the car charger when we get to the hotel I’m usually exhausted & want to sit on the bed with pillows & my feet up or take a nap. It seems like there’s always no outlet there. We also go back & forth to see our daughters family where they’re stationed in Ga. No outlet near the bed we sleep in there. I would defintely personalize it with a pic. Of my 3 beautiful grandchildren. Thanks for a great giveaway.
I would LOVE to have one of these. In fact, I NEED one of these! We travel a lot and I take so many pics that I’m constantly needing a charge. Plus, I read with my eReader ALL the time, and the charger is a bit cumbersome. This would be perfect! Thanks for a great giveaway!!
This is seriously cool, especially for someone who is constantly on the go with work and uses their device constantly. That’s my dad for sure, I would definitely give this to him if I won, eventhough I would love it for myself too because I’m a gadget freak.
I mostly travel with my son while my husband is working. It would give me peace of mind to own something like this. I would put a picture of my son and my dad (who has passed) on it.
How handy!! Id have a local mountain scene pic on it.
This would be great when traveling! Especially in airports. There are never enough power outlets and with this now I wont need one if I need a quick boost!
This sounds like a lifesaver! Great giveaway, Cheryl!
I rely on my phone when I am away from the house for both business and personal reasons, and this thing would bail me out on the rare occasions that I forget to charge my phone! And my battery doesn’t hold as well as I would like if I have to use my phone a lot. This would certainly help with that!
I would love to have a portable charger because one of my kids is always playing some game or another on my phone when we are out, draining the battery. The picture I would put on it is the one of my family on a dirt road nearby.
We are traveling overseas in October and this would be awesome! We wouldn’t have to worry about using an inverter to keep things charged. I’d put a photo of our family (me, sweet husband, our grandson) on it.
This is fantastic!! Love your site, your recipes and your ideas! Thanks for sharing with all of us!!
What an awesome giveaway, I would love that charger! Thanks so much for the party. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
We have a busy summer, and I am always ending up with a dead phone. I have to 2 kids getting married, and I am always taking pictures of different wedding items to send them. Then when a do have a little down time CANDY CRUSH is always fun to play.
Have a great summer
I would love to have one of these because we go fishing a lot and have to use the 4g which burns through the battery. WIth one of these, I wouldn’t have to worry about dead batternies anymore. The pic I would get on it, maybe a pretty L like Laverne’s from Laverne and Shirley.
I would love this and especially while traveling! I would probably put one of sseveral sunset pics on it. Thanks for sharing!
This is genius! I love the solar option although being in Seattle, it might not get used often. 😉 Not sure what photo I’d use yet. Kids or something graphic and fun.
I am paranoid about my cell phone battery – never like it to get below 75%!
With so many electronics to charge, it would be great to have on our trips. I would put a picture of our 5 month old granddaughter on it1
Need the portable charger for my dying iphone….it never stays charged anymore.
This would be perfect for my husband. His iPhone battery is almost always running low and always at the worst times and locations.
Oh how convenient. I’d love it. I’m not sure what pic I’d put on it
I would love this portable charger! My work and life keep me on my phone 24 hours a day and sometimes it is difficult to pop into a Starbucks just to take a break to charge my batteries. I’m outside frequently and the solar charge would be ideal for me. I love this product and it would pretty well change my life and keep me energized like the ever-ready bunny!
Also, I have your purse. It’s my favourite one!
I sure could use a portable charger, one reason being, if my phone is dead I have no idea what anyones number is and in an emergency I wouldn’t be able to call anyone! I really do try and memorize my husbands but over time I forget. So, because of speed dial I really don’t know anyones number anymore. A portable charger would sure come in handy 🙂
I would love one when I am camping. Like to have my phone available just in case but no outlets. As for the design I would have to go with either a fleur dis lys or a welsh corgi
Wow … it can be charged by the sun … so smart! It would come in so handy while camping! I can see why you are lovin’ it 🙂
P.S. Thank you for hosting another great party!
I absolutely hate it when my battery dies – I would love to be able to charge when on the go! I am in meetings and conferences a lot for work, so I would put our Cressy & Everett Real Estate logo on the charger..hoping that it would strike conversation at conferences, getting the word out about my company & the local real estate marketing in our area is the goal! 🙂
This would come in handy for one of my two kids (or they can share it) who are both students at The Ohio State University so I wouldn’t put a picture on it but instead have it say Go Bucks in scarlet red color.
Its awesome that its solar powered too
I’d love to win this for my husband. The previous owner of his car had taken out the cigaret lighter from his car, so he has no way of charging his phone while he’s out. If he had this neither of us would have to worry about his phone dieing when he’s on long drives (which is anywhere where we live!)
I love your blog and the emails that remind me to read them. I would love to be able to recharge my phone while camping. And I would put a picture of my son when he just got his master’s degree.
I have medical problems and it’s very important that I always have my phone charged…if something were to happen to me Isms my phone were to be dead, which it’s happened allot being in town. Cuz I’m no where close to a plug 🙁 I don’t drive so I depend in public transpiration…if my phone us dead I have to wait somewhere to try to see if I can find a plug. This would be a life saver for me. Thank you!!
I would love to win this because I am often away from home for 6+ hours and no access to recharge my phone so I always loose power. I would put a picture of my sons and our Dachshunds on it!
My kiddos usually unplug my phone and have it somewhere when I think it’s been charging. Then, it’s time to leave and my battery is low 🙁 This would be awesome!!
I would love having one of these because my phone always seems to die when I’m in the car! I’d put a picture of my son, my cats, or the beach on it. Actually…. probably the beach. Sorry kitties and baby!
I swear my iPhone is always in the 10-20% battery range. I would love this! And I would probably put a picture of a travel destination or a cupcake (since I bake!)
