Is it cheaper to get a Mophi juicepack or an external battery for your iPhone?

So, it should not matter if you have a micro USB charger on the case, an old doc connector, or a lightning connector. Plug in the USB charging cable into the port on the battery and start recharging as if you were plugged into a computer or your wall brick. Conversely, recharging the battery is most often done by micro USB cable. You’ll need to plug it into a computer or your iPhone brick. You can easily find a cheap battery at Walmart or amazon, but lithium ion batteries are very fickle and quality matters. I suggest you look at Anker brand batteries, and pick a model that fits your charging needs. The Astro slim 6000ma may be worth a look. I personally own a 12,000ma battery from Anker that is equivalent to the Astro 3. Just be certain to by your battery from a trusted source. Amazon does sell the Anker brands, and is where I got mine. Best, —k Faith doesn’t give you the answers, it merely stops you from asking the questions. On May 8, 2014, at 9:00 PM, Paul and Paula Jordan <pau...@roadrunner.com> wrote: Hi, all. I have a friend who has an IPhone 5 with an otterbox case. She’s interested in purchasing a back up battery or case with battery. What would be best for her to get? She doesn’t want to remove her phone from the otterbox. Thanks. God bless! Paula and Babe -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
