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!!

This would be perfect when we are traveling or just running errands around town. If I won, I would put our family picture on it. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!
This would be such a lifesaver especially when you run a small business
Ooh, ooh! Please pick me!! 🙂
It would be wonderful to win it and used quite often seeing as we visit the in-laws in Missouri at least 4 times a year. I think it would come in very handy.
I am always on the go with my 3 kids and this would be sooooo fabulous! Great giveaway!
I am always needing to charge my phone. When we take trips on our motorcycle it may be a long time before I can plug in to charge. This would make a big difference for me. Wish I had it now since we’re leaving on a week-long trip over the weekend. I would certainly appreciate winning this!! Thanks!
I would love one of the chargers because my phone is always low in the charged department. I would have a pic of a beach on it.
Hi! I would love to win the charger, my phone seems to always be going dead:) I would use a blog storybook template to create an image with several photos of my family and my blog logo!
I would love to win because my husband steals my chargers! I would put my name on the charger so everyone in the family will know it is mine!
Oh this would be such a sweet treat…especially with teenagers in the family! Was looking at the photo design options they have on their website and out of those I would go with the flower one, but if you could design your own, it would be truly spectacular to get one with the kiddos photo on it :0)
What a resourceful gadget!
I so need one of these when I’m on campus!
I needed a POWERTRIP today and my phone died while I was on the beach-solar charging would be perfect! I’d put photo of my sweet hubby holding our spoiled & sweet dog on my charger! Great giveaway Cheryl—would be wonderful to win!
What a marvelous device! I had always though there should be such a thing; I sort of invented in my mind, ha!
As a part time single mom (dad is ALWAYS working), I am always running around from dance class to baseball, etc, this charger would be a big help!! I would probably put my favorite photo of my 3 kiddos on it! 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
I’d place a photo of my 5 month old 🙂 It would be great for our long driving trips to see grandma and grandpa.
The power strip would work great out here in Alaska, we go hiking and boating… That’s when my battery always dies
This would be a great time saver! I have 6 boys and we all keep in touch with our cell phones so it would be handy to charge anywhere I happen to be! I would put a picture of my sons on my phone since they are the reason I have one!
I love that this can charge from solar power. Great for camping!
What an awesome device. With how prevalent smart phones are, and how lost we’d all be without it, love how you can recharge it with solar power. Don’t know what photo I’d have on it…yet.
This would be perfect for my family since everyone always asks me do you have an extra charger?!?! I would have to put my super mom stamp on it!
Would love to win the power strip. My old 78 year old brain keeps forgetting to charge my IPhone. The portable power strip would keep me out of trouble.
Great product. Will be great to use to help keep our little ones busy while traveling to see our eldest daughter graduate. It would be great for the whole family! I’d love to have a picture I took of all our of my children (nicely) exploring the shoreline of the beach together last year on the charger.
I would love to win. Thanks for the chance!
this would be great for the beach trips I’ll be taking this summer!
This would be awesome to have when traveling for when I don’t have an outlet available. I would put a picture on it of my husband and I from when he came home from deployment.
I’d love one for when I’m at all day baseball tournaments and my iphone is running low. I’d put a picture of my family on it.
Look like it’s really useful!
I would love this and I would have my Grandson’s pic on it!..
This would be awesome to win! Thank you for the opportunity
I need this for my long, long work days, and I would use my grandson’s picture
The powertrip would be a wonderful addition to my family. We are trying to live “off the grid”, but have found that charging a smart phone requires electricity! If given the opportunity, I’d put a picture of either my late in-laws or my church on the power trip.
I would LOVE to win this and I would put a photo of my shorties on it!
I would love to win this so while I’m enjoying the outings with my family I can still have a charged phone. I would like A family picture on it 🙂
I would love to win this set to give to my daughter! She is due today with my first grandchild and I think it would come in very handy when juggling life and a newborn! 😀
I would love one of the chargers the phone.
I would put a picture of my three kids on it! It would be awesome to have the solar charging for our mission trips that we take as a family! There are lots of time that I can’t charge my phone until we get to somewhere that has electricity. How cool would it be to allow the sun to charge it for me while I put it outside of my backpack! 🙂
This would be so helpful on vacation & day trips!
i live on a farm…so am away from electrical plug ins most days. This would be great to have to keep my phone charged all day:)
WOW!!! I am a tournament softball mom and we travel A LOT! This would come in handy since we keep stats on the ipad and a long day of playing means we have to stop and charge for at least one game. I would put the team photo on it or just my lovely little base stealer.
I only carry a cell phone for emergencies so I forget to check it before I leave. Usually it is not charged if I do need it! This would be the answer for me! I would put a baby picture of my son (who’s 30 now) on it. They always make me smile.
=^..^=
Oh my! This would definitely come in handy for our road trips this summer. All of our family live at least 4hrs from us and when we visit we like to take in the sights. I would definitely have a picture of my girls and hubby on this first, but then of course pictures of all the sights. 🙂
I would love to have these to make sure I get all the phone calls from my kids when they are with their dad and am able to talk to them when they are away. Thanks for the chance.
I’d love this portable charger when I’m out and about with my 2 and half year old. He loves to watch front end loader and digger movies on my phone and it kills the battery everytime.
I’d love to put a picture of my little red headed boy and his best pal Rupert the giraffe on it. 🙂
I have a daughter who is serving in Lesotho, Africa for the Peace Corps. She would love to have this to charge her phone. And of course I would put a picture of her in South Africa on the front 🙂
I travel a ton for work. I often find myself running through the airport looking for an open charger spot. I would have a picture if my son so I could see that handsome face whenever I use it.
I just got a smart phone last week and I LOVE it! We spend a lot of our leisure time in remote areas and the PowerTrip charger would be perfect, especially with the solar charging feature! I’m definitely getting one and will put a photo of our favorite peaceful wilderness spot on it! Thanks SO much for sharing, Cheryl!!
I NEED this! 🙂 It’s so cool!
I would love to be able to only take one charger when we travel for all of our devices (digital camera, different cell phones, etc). That would make packing so much easier.
Wow! It would be so great to win this. My phone is actually in the red right now. 🙂 It would be a lifesaver when runnng straight from work to pick up 2 kids and then on to ballgames and etc. I would put a picture of my kiddos on it (and our sweet doggie, of course).
