It’d be fair to say that my mobile phone is with me pretty much all the time. It’d be also fair to say that one of my biggest pet peeves is when my kids have been playing with my phone, then hand it back to me completely out of battery… especially when I’m headed out the door and hoped to use it to take pictures while I was out.
As a freelancer who works on assignment as well as from home and as a mom with small children, being connected during the day or being able to be reached in case of an emergency is pretty important. Having a charge on my phone makes that possible. The IOGEAR Portable Battery Mobile Phone Charger helps to keep my phone charged so I can be connected with the world when I want to be. I have become pretty dependent on this powerful little device.
This is what I love about my IOGEAR charger:
- It’s very small and lightweight. It’s not much bigger than the size of a normal business card. Fits right in a pocket!
- It charges my devices quickly
- I can use it for various phone types as well as devices besides my phone – bundled with interchangeable connectors, it can charge virtually any Motorola, BlackBerry, Samsung, Windows, Apple, or Android mobile device
- When my IOGEAR is fully charged, I can fully charge my mobile phone with it up to two times before having to recharge the IOGEAR device
- It’s saved me so many times when I needed my phone and it was out of battery… it’s reliable, functional and perfect for my on the go lifestyle!
For a full list of features and other mobile charging devices, please visit the IOGEAR website.

Important because: It keeps me in touch when unexpected emergencies arise; it keeps me entertained on long runs or walking the dogs; it tells me where to go when I’m driving in a new place; and it lets me take photos anywhere (on a run or bike ride) when I haven’t been able to lug my “real” camera along.
Thanks for the giveaway!

Having a fully charged phone is important to me because…I take a million pictures of my kid every day! And because when I’m up in the middle of the night nursing a baby, it helps pass the time if I can play on my phone. Half the time it’s dead.
Because I need to post effery to Facebook ASAP. This includes random thoughts, food pics and bad pictures of celebrities. Oh, and I guess I should have a charger on hand after all of that so I can call 911 if the subject of one of my posts decides to chase me. I am a wimp, and I don’t enjoy fighting or having my makeup messed up.
What a cool thing to have!! I hate to say it, but I am totally reliant on my phone these days. Having it fully charged is important for so many reasons – most importantly since we have no home phone, but also for access to email when I need it, and to help calm crazy toddlers when we are out and about. (love being able to have books and games that the kids can play!!)

It’s the primary way I stay in touch with my older children who are on their own and makes me accessible for the younger one’s needs as well. It’s also my primary camera since it is always with me. I really missed it last night when the battery ran out before the Sporting KC/Seattle Sounders Open Cup Championship game!
