Any recommendation for pocketable battery pack?

lanwarrior · Feb 11, 2014

I am looking for a credit card size battery pack that I can put inside my wallet. There was one called the Jumper Card from Indiegogo (Linky). Unfortunately, the project was cancelled and no longer available.

Any other recommendation?

I don't want a large battery pack since it's too big to put in pocket, not to mention too heavy. I just need a small charger that can provide emergency top-up for 10-20% of the battery life.

Thanks for the info guys. These have more power than the jumper card, so it's bigger to and won't fit my wallet. :'( .

PS: when I had my S4, I carry a spare battery in my wallet because it's small enough.

Thigh I like the keychain one from Mophie.

How's this working out for you? The Amazon reviews are horrible..1.5 stars.

It work fine. You just have to make sure it's charged up though, as there are time that the indicator show that the battery is charged but it was really only partially charged. Just make sure to plug it in maybe once a week to keep it topped off.

I have this one and I like it: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Ultra-Slim-Built-In-Cable-ThunderBolt-Blackberry/dp/B00CEZJT2E

There are a ton of other ones though; for me, the importance is that it comes with built-in charging cable.

I used to do this with my s2. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything in the years since that will do this.

Did you try Qcell external battery? or Zerolemon?

kklang · Feb 15, 2014

Just got myself this with this battery charged my empty nexus 5 at 6% battery to full in about an hour. maybe a bit less or a bit more I did not really track it. However works for me well. the other reason I got this is the battery fits my ST Cycler jetbeam flashlight. Just haring in case it might work for someone as well. The solution is not very ergonomic though, maybe.

Zerolemon batter case is HUGEEE nexus is already a sizable device
how would you rate its performance against standard batterypack from leading competitors?

shilton.charles · Feb 25, 2014

i have used both qcell and 5star america battery packs..
both are great products i would go with either of these 2

x111 · Feb 25, 2014

much better solution:
RAVPower Wireless Charging Pad with Built-in 4800mAh External Battery with magnetic tape 3M on it. Or perhaps another magnets. Or VELCRO Brand Sticky Back Fasteners

Will post the pictures when will get it.

I posted this in the other thread, but I'll post it here too. I found this on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GU589GG/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I ordered it and should be coming in on Thursday. For anyone interested I will make a separate thread reviewing it. I really like the low price but we'll see how it actually performs. It apparently has 2,000 mAh.

That looks nice, small and good for mini top ups in an emergency - but the compatability doesn't say nexus 5 - how come?

PsychDrummer · Feb 28, 2014

I just got the battery I ordered, and I wrote an initial review. Check it out if you're interested http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2664684 there are some pictures as well.
