Hey guys,
I just got my extended battery which I love, but I want to charge my other battery without having to insert it into the phone. Have any good chargers that AREN'T the $59.99 Battery Dock from Motorola?

Got this with all the accessories that came from Costco. Wouldn't think this would run 59.99.. Checked out amazon and it is that much. Damn what a rip off
Yea that dock charges the extended battery too. Gotta love costco on release day what a nice bonus!

I think the only other option would be the battery dock. It is overpriced imo, but I got it free with a bunch of other extras from good ol' costco.
Or, if your daring, you can get another charging cable and split the end to make contact with the battery's contacts. If you look online you should be able to find resources, but that seems impractical.
I got the Costco accessory kit too, love it. I find that it takes a long time to charge the battery outside the phone though. Almost twice as long. Are you guys seeing the same behavior?

It doesn't have the best sound quality but it's something you can have on your desk or move around the house with you..
For 5 bucks its actually pretty cool. Doesn't come with an AC adapter but who doesn't have one laying around? It also works on 3 AA batteries.

Is there a wire that connects to the headphone jack that comes with it? I don't really see anything connected.
+1 for Meek Mill lol
Yes it has an audio cable in the battery compartment. I'll take a pic of it later

I had one of these from 5 below a while ago. I threw it out. The speaker sounded worse than my phone speaker.

Looks like a winner to me
It's the standard battery for the iphone. These guys can't even make a 10 minutes phone call without flat battery.
Seriously. I think it's ridiculous this kind of devices are needed at all. 5 - 7 days days of normal use should be the standard for EVERY mobile.
On top of that, wireless charging the standard for every new device in the market. And where are creative solutions? Why for example do notebooks not have a area where we place our phones for wireless charging? Answer: They want to sell us expensive gatchets.
I have one of these in 12000mah, great for festivals the 3 usb ports meant I could charge my T the wifes iPhone and my eCigs at the same time. With testing out I manage to get a weeks worth of charging my phone from one of these and it is really portable.
I have bought THIS for my Xperia T and it's fantastic!

Three charges and the Anker 3E (10000mAh version) battery is at half... very good!
Has anyone seen these or tried these? I know they aren't exactly the best quality, and they'll be pretty generic looking but they seem relatively decent?
What do you guys think? Worth a bite?

I saw them before, and they seem to be good.
Would like to buy one, but I cant buy anything from internet (currently).
I had a crappy one for my iPhone 4 back in the day. It wasn't very good, and some of the reviews of these say "don't charge phone inside case" - which makes it a little more impractical to me. I might get one...but I need to save for my Xperia Tablet Z first
I had one for my Z and it was amazing. I got a 4200mah one and it was decent quality but added a great bulk to the phone, but well worth it if you need the extra juice.
I got a 'powerbank' branded one, purely as in out the house 16 hours a day with no means to charge my phone.
Best thing to do is find a reasonably priced one and try it out.

There are two versions of the Incipio offGRID Power Pack Moto Mod. One with and one without wireless charging. I know the one without wireless charging must be charged attached to the phone. Can the wireless version be charged separately, or also only when on the phone?
From what little tests I did it needs to be on the phone. With the wireless charger I have it doesn't work if I just put it on the charger.
Been unable to recharge this mod on its own is its only really downside.

It recharges just fine wirelessly and by it self.

My bad, I just realised I have the mod without wireless charging (although I supposedly bought the one with it, I've got a store to go back to ^^').
Sorry for the misinformation!
This is a review of the Techdoty Fast Wireless Charging Stand. This was provided to me for review by Choetech.

The stats per the box are as bellow:
I tried this out with both my new Note 8 and my Galaxy S8. It works as advertised. Fast charging works as advertised and seems in my limited testing so far to charge just as fast as the OEM Samsung chargers, including the newest convertible stand charger that Samsung has. All that at only a fraction of the cost too!
The only drawback that I have found with this charging stand is that it does have the ability to rick forward a bit. This is especially noted with the larger Note 8 phone. It does not tip over, but rocks a bit. See pic bellow. This is very minimal though and just something to note.
This is strong enough to charge through cases and can also charge in upright/vertical position or horizontal/landscape position.
While it does not have a cooling fan built in, like the Samsung chargers do, it does not seem to overheat itself or the phone, which is very important.
It also looks good on the desk. Overall, this is a great charger and at 20$ on Amazon, it is a fantastic buy. I highly recommend this one.
