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!!

Looks like a great help while traveling! Thanks for your helpful website!
This would be awesome, I am an on the go mom to 4 and foster mom to 2, my phone is my life line!! I have to be available all the time for social workers, lawyers, teachers, etc. I would put a pic of my kiddos to personalize!
I spend so many hours out of the house. This will be a must have device to have in those desperate moments when the battery is dying.
Would use for trips and long car rides to see family. Would place a monogram on it!
Thank you for hosting this great party. Please stop by and join us on our Tuesday Brag About It Party.
~~Thanks, Sharon & Denise
Ooooh, I need one of those!!!
My son deployed recently and he uses iMessage to stay in touch.
My phone MUST be charged and ready!!!

I would use the PowerTrip Portable Charger for my daughters Iphone and tablet, the tablet always dies in the car. I would put a picture of them on it also.
Would love to have phone charger since I recently had a tornado come thru my subdivision and the power went out, of course my phone battery died right before that. A charger would have been so nice with the solar panel.
We need one of these chargers! When my daughter went on a band trip to Disney, they drove overnight then went straight to the parks when they got in town. The kids were expected to have their phones on them so that they can be reached by the chaperones, and for them to check in with the chaperones. I was so worried that my daughter’s phone would be out of juice after the overnight drive and then she wouldn’t have a way to recharge the phone. She’s going on another band trip this year, and I really need to get one of these chargers for her.
I’d put a photo of our doggie on the charger.
I would gift it to my son. So he can send me pictures of my granddaughter!
I would like to have this so I would always have power. I would put my grandson’s pic on it.
I’m always running low on battery. My biggest fear is that my phone will die when I need it most! I think I would just like a monogram on it. Thank you!!
thank you for posting this chance to win something very useful! I would save a pix of my newly adopted rescue dog Gracey, with her new siblings ( also rescued) Prince, Baby & Emily Noodle and JC and Me for a family pix complete..
Thanks for the awesome giveaway! I don’t care how long I charge my phone..it ALWAYS dies on me before I can get home.
I would love a portable charger b/c my phone/ipod seems to go dead at the most inopportune times! I would probably add a monogram.
I could so use this for both my iPhone and iPad. I use these devices a lot and it is hard to keep them charged. I would probably put a picture of my dogs. Thanks for chance to win.
I would love to win one. I would give it to my son. He has a smartphone.
that is sooo cool, I would love to win it!
My phone seems like it’s always dying! I would put a picture of my cat on it. 🙂
I didn’t know about these chargers and they sure would come in handy! I’m going to be spending a lot of time at the hospital and medical offices, so it would be great to make sure that my phone or e-reader don’t stop functioning! I would like to have a rabbit silhouette logo if I win.
so cool!
would love one of these! my iphone is forever needing to be charged
I would love to give this to my hubby for our anniversary, so I’d have to put a wedding picture 🙂
I’d love this charger to make sure my phone never died when I’m out and about! I’d put a picture of my kids or a D for my last initial.
I would love to have it my son is diabetic and you can never be without the phone!
Because none of us ever wants to be out of touch due to a dead battery, this is the coolest new tech toy ever. As a tech trainer, I need my phone and iPad to be constantly connected. Awesome idea!
Just went camping, my new car won’t charge my phone unless its running which I didn’t want to do, an extra charge for those trips would be great! Nothing worse then waking up in the middle of the night and not knowing what time it is. I don’t think my kids would like their picture on it, so I would have to say I would go with a cute picture of our bunny!
I would love to win this wonderful tool for my daughter. I believe she would love to have a picture of her nephew, my grandson, on the cover. <3
It never fails…. I’m always the one with the DEAD phone exactly when I need it. This portable charger looks like the answer! I’d personalize it with a picture of my hunny… my adorable husband.
I would use the charger when we travel out of town for doctor and business trips. I would use it for my phone and iPad…how wonderful. I would put a picture of my toy poodle on it! : )
Wow, these are awesome! I sure could use this to stay in touch with my husband, and our two sons! I would put a family picture on it. Thanks for the opportunity to win one!
I could sure use one of those!!
This would be such a great tool to have. I am an on the go mom with teen-age children. It is important for my phone to be charged because my kids need to check in with me when they are out and about. But it seems my phone is always on the brink of dying, I try to keep chargers everywhere, but finding an outlet isn’t always easy. I would love a portable charger! 🙂
I forgot to add that I would use a picture of my family. Looking at a favorite picture of them would bring me joy throughout the day. 🙂
I would love not to have to worry my phone is limited… I can use it freely when i am out and about. And of course, I’d personalize it with a picture of my sweetie!!! 🙂
I would love to have a portable charger because my son is on the iPad constantly! This would be so handy when we travel. I think for the photo, I might try some sort of graphic that has my first name and phone number in case I ever accidentally left it behind somewhere.
I’d love to have this portable charger because I’m always on the go and never seem to have the time to recharge my devices. It would have come in handy today when I realized my phone was nearly dead as I was leaving the house.
I’d get it branded with my blog’s logo.

I think this is a great giveaway! I would love to get one just for the convenience and the peace of mind of having such a great little device in my purse! SO many times I find my phone almost out of battery life so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for the win! Thank you
My children are constantly on the Ipad/Iphone/Ipod and this would be great to keep them entertained while on the go. I would personalize it with my companies logo. Thank you for the giveaway.
I would love to have one. I use my phone all the time and i’m always charging it.
I’m always on the go-go-go, so the PowerTrip would be great for me! For the picture, I’m currently stuck between either a picture of a sunset at the house I grew up in or something having to do with music.
Thanks for such a great giveaway!
So I have that same anxiety (what if ‘m driving and I get into an accident and my phone is dead and now i’ll starve to death because my phone died), so I carry an extra charger everywhere. I used to have a car charger but I lost it. The worst is when your phone is dying and you have a charger but there is nowhere to plug it in!
As for the picture, I think a picture of my cat would probably be what I’d choose.
Home, kids, job, volunteer work…I’m running a million different ways and this would be a lifesaver!
I would use this on my trip to the beach this October. I could also make use of it at my job. OR if worse comes to worse I could give it to my father who uses his phone for work ALL the time and often runs out of battery.
I would put a beach sunset picture on it, preferably one that I have made in the past.
This would be so handy to have for long car rides. Love this technology.
This would be perfect….my battery seems to always run out while I’m out!
This would come in handy as I never think to charge my phone until we are walking out of the house for the day and it starts to beep at me. As for a picture, I’m thinking a beach scene.
This would be just wonderful!
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a PowerStick. I use my iPhone at craft shows to accept credit cards. I alway worry that I won’t have the power to make it through the day. (I have had 1 too many close calls).
Thanks Tidy Mom for the giveaway!
