An External Battery for Your iPhone is a Great Backup

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

If you're on an Ingress Mission, you might need backup power. It's important to pay attention to your devices. Like every so often you have to pick up your keyboard and pound the dead skin and bread crumbs out of it. It's amazing what kind of crap falls out of your keyboard, and what's even more astonishing is how it got there in the first place, mixed in with the cat hair that floats around our house. And there are only so many times that one can drop a wireless mouse on a ceramic floor before the connection will float in and out and necessitate buying a new wireless mouse. But there is no replacement for a Mophie juice pack powerstation external battery.

I finally ordered one of those gizmos yesterday because after you're downtown Sacramento all afternoon playing an Ingress Mission, your cellphone can use up all of its juice. If you're not close to your car to recharge your iPhone, a juice pack that fits into your pocket is the answer. Just saying for all you guys who go on Ingress Missions. Comes in handy for my Sacramento real estate business, too. You can read more in my personal blog today about The Ingress Mission Ends at Oshima Sushi Sports Bar.

Elizabeth Weintraub Sacramento Real Estate Agent, Top 1% of Lyon Agents I agree and am a fan of the Mophie products.  I used the Mophie Juice Pack on my old iPhone 5S and have a Powerstation for my iPad and wireless devices that utilize a USB such as my digital camera.  The powerstation is AWSOME for when you are traveling and it works great on airplanes as well.

I have heard you mention this Ingress Mission and I have had no clue what you are talking about.  When it comes to external batteries and rescue chargers, I am definitely carrying one.

I have heard of the Juice Pack but never got stuck at 0% power, I am always watching it.....  the new iPhone 6 plus has a bigger battery but I don't like the size for a phone.

I have heard of a Juice paack, also, but have never seen one.    I would love to get one, as that would be handy as I run out of battery often.

I'm not as busy as you are apparently.  I take a fully charged phone in the morning and it will last me all day long.

Well, I never would have guessed you had time for this game, Elizabeth.  It does sound addictive and I probably shouldn't start.
