Life Saving power where I need it
This is a very lightweight battery which I now carry everywhere with me.
This has given me the freedom to charge my iPhone while moving around in my bag.
It clips on to the iPhone with ease even when I have my cover on my iPhone.
It also came with a plastic cover for the top which also acts as a stand for to charge on your desktp. …- Written by shelia M

Nearly a five star jobby... !
This is undoubtedly a life-saving bit of kit for iPhone 3G users ! I would rather have an iPhone that is much better on its batte ry usage but, as I don't, this battery extender/charger is a welcome boon. If you are serious about using your 3G to its full potential you will definitely need this, easy to use, excellent little gismo (or its bigger brother !). It would have been five stars but for the price I personally think it should come with a mains charger too ! …

Design Plonkers
This is another one of those thoughtless designs that takes the technology consuming public for idiots. As additional battery powe r to keep you entertained with whatever your iPod has to offer, did any of those idiots from Kensington care to consider that you need headphones while on the go, and if it is the iPod Touch that you have this is next to useless. The headphone jack is blocked by this idiotic design. Ah, you might say, "but other iPods don't have the jack at the bottom by the dock connector." In which case why advertise it connected to the iPod Touch? It is about time we the consuming public held these money guzzling companies to account by helping others to avoid the trap of buying their trash until they put some thought into their products and stop treating us like idiots! …

Does not charge iphone 3GS after iOS4 update
This is a lightweight battery back that you can always carry with you and does not need cables. Used it frequently but it will not charge my iPhone 3GS after the iOS 4.0 update.
I get a message that 'this accessory is not optimized for this iPhone'. Any ideas? …- Written by Theologos S from San Ramon

Very useful
A nice compact, lightweight little accessory that's not too much hassle to carry around, and unlike other battery pack products, c an actually re-charge your iPod / iPhone's internal battery. The battery pack itself recharges pretty fast, and holds it's charge for a surprising amount of time.
One small caveat is the fact that the dock connector isn't very long, so if you have a Contour protective case (or similar) the connector can't make it all the way in to the dock port on your phone (due to the shape of the contour case at the bottom) so you have to take the phone out of it's case to use the battery pack. A minor niggle that prevents me from giving this 5 stars. Other than that, this has been a god-send to me a couple of times when I've been out on the road. …- Written by Graham G from Liverpool

Doesn't work
It might just be mine, but after about 2 weeks, using it about 3 times, the connector that connects it to the iPhone stopped worki ng unless you hold it at an awkward angle. Unfortunate waste of £30 …

I found the Travel battery from Kensington for the iPod Touch a better battery fit as it will allow easy access to the headphone jack and allow hands free use.
This works great with my iPhone however. …- Answered by Mick M
