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’m constantly “in motion” and often don’t have the time to charge my android. This would be a “life-saver”!
My car charger is broken and I usually charge my cell on the drive to work. This would be very helpful.
I’m a sign language interpreter and am constantly on-the-go. I get info on my assignments via text/email and so I need my cell to work! This would be a great “back-up”!
I’m an active Mom and in-between the kids activities, work, shopping………etc, I rarely sit down. Keeping in touch with everyone is important and this would ensure my cell was up to the task.
I have a very finicky cell, sometimes it takes a charge and sometimes not. I don’t want to get caught without being about to communicate and this would be an excellent back up.
I have a degree in archeology and enjoy going “out on digs”. These usually are far out of town where there is no electricity. I need to keep in touch with my husband, kids and grandkids……..so this would be GREAT!
Never herd of this product, looks interesting.
I go to free concerts that our City sponsors every Tues, Wed & Sunday. I take my tablet or e-reader along with my cellphone. I read my books while listening to the music and check ML Pgh Pirates baseball scores on my cell phone. I use Internet on the Go for my wi-fi tablet and something always runs low on the batteries. Would use it for that and put soemthing fun using my Silhouette Cameo on the charger! Thanks for the opportunity to win~
I’m commenting for the PowerTrip Portable Charger giveaway. Good review.
It would be wonderful to win the PowerTrip Portable Charger.
I’m glued to my iPhone and this would give me peace of mind that I would always be able to recharge my iPhone regardless of where I am. I think Hello Kitty would look cute on it.
I spend a lot of time in the hospital and at doctor offices and the power trip portable charger would come in handy.
My husband would love it if my phone were charged ALL the time. It gets frustrating when people can’t get a hold of you when your phone goes dead at the most inconvienent times.
My phone always runs out of charge and I am so famous for it that it is frustrating! I would put a keep calm and sip a coffee logo on it!
i just love everything about this website!!!!
My husband was recently hospitalized for 14 days. My phone was my lifeline. I used an extension cord all over that hospital. This would go a long way to check one anxiety off my list.
I would love to enter your giveaways. Great prizes and recipes that i use on a dailly basis.. Z
super awesome!
I travel 1.5 hours one way and pass the 1.5 hr return trip by speaking with the Grands. By the end of the day, my phone is like me — tired and ready to quit! I’d LOVE one of these!
Id love to win one of these! I didnt even know they existed thank you for sharing! If I win I wont have to ever worry about my devices dying ever again! I would love to get the picture of Jesus catching a falling man on it! Thanks again! Amanda
This would just be so practical. I know we are all a bit obsessed with our gadgets but this little device could remove some unnecessary stress from our lives 🙂 Of course I would put my children’s pic on it.
I would love to have this portable charger, I would keep it with me to use in case of emergency.
The logo I would put on it would be my initials. I think that would be awesome if I won!
I am always in town with a dead battery when I need it- this would help a ton. I would have a family pic!
This would be great for keeping the phone charged. I would put a family photo on it.
Since it could be charged about anywhere, it would clear up a space on my table. Probably put my initials on it.
I need this so bad. I can;t go anywhere without my charger…Would be so nice to nit have to be tied to a wall outlet! It would make my long hours at work tolerable being able to listen to music longer without worrying about my battery!
Amazing…It would be so nice to have solar charge in the summer while out farming with my husband. I have 3 boys that I love and would put on it.
I am always low on juice! Help me!
I have never seen anything like this before, so cool!
We are remodeling our home and the electricity is not always on during this process. Having the ability to charge three ways is awesome. I hope to be the winner.
to be able to charge anywhere using the SUN!!! woohoo, fantastic 🙂
I would put a picture of my son and I
I use a lot of apps on my phone when shopping and I hate having the battery die in the middle of the store. Then there are those days out at the barn and no place to plug in. I need the phone fully charged when out on a long trail ride so in case of an emergency. My pride and joy is my horse. I put his picture everywhere.
I would love to win one of these. No more dead phone!!!
Absolutely love this charger! I am always running out of power when I am out and about, so this would be perfect for me! I would put my blog logo on it! Thanks for a great giveaway!
I would love this for convenience! I would put a picture of my daughter on it
I would love to win this either for myself or my husband. Where we live the electric goes out often and this would be great to have during those times. I would place a picture of my daughters on it since they are my life. 🙂
this would be soooo handy i have a blackberry that i use all the time (listen to music, read kindle books) and the battery doesn’t last a day, i do work from home so i can typically charge it, but am either tethered to the wall or have to put it down for awhile (and it always seems to die in the evening when I’m wanting to carry it around while cleaning or relax and read on the couch where there are no close outlets.) this would also be great for charging it while camping this summer, last year with all the tech we charged (we sooo do not unplug camping, so much easier to have a dozen books on e device then in paper form!) we killed the huge van battery…..
This charger looks amazing and I want it! I just returned from a trip to NYC with four grade school friends but wasn’t able to take many pictures because my phone iPhone 4S wouldn’t keep a charge, I even went to the Genius Bar in grand central station for help…they didn’t help me. :(. I didn’t bring my camera, because I just moved and hadn’t been able to find it in the boxes. I learned that there are not enough outlets on tour buses, restaurants or tourists stops. This charger would have been a life saver and memory maker. If I win it, I would have a picture of the 5 of us in NYC. Please pick me! Waiting to be charged!!
I love it! Since I’m always on the run teaching, softball and baseball tournaments on the weekends, and visiting family back home it would be perfect. My car charger only works half the time, and traveling without the charger working and a phone half dead this would be great. On ball weekends this would be perfect for me and the kids to use to charge our phones, cameras, and video games that never fail to die by the end if an all day tournament! I would put a picture of the family we has taken on it!
I would love to win a power trip portable charger because my husband always forgets to charge his phone but I would put my initials on it cause it would be mine!
I think that is the most innovative portable charger that has ever been created. It really is made to really go anywhere and use in any environment. I would love to have it.!
this would be great for camping!i would put a pic of my kids.
Oh my goodness, this would come in super handy!!
I’m always on the go and don’t always gave access to an outlet to charge, it would be perfect for my bag. I’d put a pic of my pups on it.
I would LOVE to win this – when we went to Disneyland my phone would not stay charged for that LONG day and I missed out on some adorable pictures!
Ah! My husband needs this so much! His phone is always dead, and with a baby on the way, keeping it charged up is more important than ever!
Would love to have this when going camping. :O)
I would love this because iI would never have to worry about having a dead iphone or iPad again. I would have a picture of my cute pup on it. 🙂
i need one for my daughter she’s always loosing power and im sure she or i would put a hello kitty sticker or her name on it
I just entered to win the $ 250 home depot card.
