When You Need A Charge: The Targus Backup Battery for the iPad or Smartphone

My iPhone comes everywhere with me. From errands, to work, and anywhere in between, I always think of a reason to pull out my phone. Unfortunately, my constant Googling and emailing mean I see the 10% battery warning more often than I would expect.

With the Targus Backup Battery for iPad, I can recharge my iPad on the go. The Targus battery charges more than just iPads, too. The portable battery charges iPhones, Blackberries, and Androids. No bigger than my iPhone, it fits right in my purse or dashboard. With one charge, it can fully recharge my iPhone 3-5 times. In addition, a 4-level LED light indicates when I need to recharge the battery so I never feel disconnected.

Other features include:

• Additional 5-10 hours of battery life on an iPad
• 4800 mAh lithium-polymer battery
• Standard USB port for universal compatibility
• 6 hour charging from any standard USB port
• One year limited warranty

The Targus Backup Battery not only charges my phone, it gives me peace of mind. I feel safer and more comfortable knowing I can always call home or look up directions when I need to the most.
