Hi Les,
I have a Peak 6000 and what it means is that if your iPhone is down to less than 20% where you get the first low battery warning, you should be able to charge it to 100% 3 times with the Peak 6,000. I find in reality that 3 times is scraping the bottom of the barrel, maybe if you plug it in right when it's at 20% and then don't use yor phone while it is charging then you will get 3 times out of it. You definitely get 2 full charges and a partial third charge out of it.

What does that mean? Does it mean you get three times the normal talk time? I saw something in the description that referred to 27 hours of talk time and wonder if that is what you referred to? I've ordered this device today from Amazon. I believe I ordered the one with the talking feature, as on Amazon's site, it was stated that this device has been available since August of 2012. Thanks.

Built-in Micro-USB and Apple connectors - plus the on-board USB port for use with your own cable - will charge a variety of portable phones, tablets, and digital devices.

You will know when your Peak is full via tone and voice notifications, in English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. 2. Take my advice, I don't use it anyway. 3.

I don't care if it talks or not. I can tell if it's charging by the battery meter on my iPhone. Anybody know of any good ones? Thanks! ------- Regards, Alan Go Chicago Bears in 2013!

I have bought the limeade 18000 and I got it the day before yesterday. I like the battery very much. You can use which cable you would like on the limeade 18000. An advantage is that you can charge with a USB charger or a computer. Best regards Annie. Den Aug 10, 2013 kl. 2:37 PM skrev Jesus Garcia <jesusga...@gmail.com>: > Morning list members after all the talk about external battery packs last week. I wonder if anyone out there has an opinion regarding the following. I am thinking of purchasing either a limeade 18000 or a peak 6000. the one advantage to the peak 6000 is that it has the ability to speak status. Does anyone on the list have a peak 6000? Also, come the end of the year I will be roling over my two year contract and will be getting a new iPhone which I assume will have the lightning connector so I don't want to be tied to a device which has only the 32 pin connectors. I assume both of these packs have the ability to use standard USB plugs with what ever connector at the other end.
