I bought this product to run my electronic cigarette (e-cig) powered with a USB plug and it is fantastic! Puts out 1amp of power and runs it like a charm. Lastst DAYS as compared to the battery that is usually used to run my e-cig which lasts mere hours. It is great and for the price is WELL worth it!

I have been using this with my 901 usb passthrough. It has already served me well through many hours at a coffeeshop and 3 power outages. I am extremely pleased with it.

Love this little thing.....I use it for my e-cig 5V pass thru. Lasts all day with fast charge time. It has many uses, but for me it makes vaping more enjoyable and portable.

If you are like me and just purchased a new ipod touch, you are outraged that all of your other charges and battery back ups no longer work. This one does. It's light and charges quickly and saved my life on a recent flight to paris where I wanted to watch movies on my ipod. The charger for it also charges a black berry so it has a double benefit.

The power capacity if this battery is 7watthrs / 5volts = 1.4 amp hrs = 1400 mah. mah is generally used as the battery capacity standard. Compare to other models easily now. There are many other rechargeable 5v output batteries with more than 1400 mah capacity for less $$.

I have one of these and I use it to charge my MP3 player (a Creative Zen, not an iPod, so I don't know about how well it would charge those if it can at all) and my cell phone (Samsung). All you have to do is just use the little USB cord to plug it in and your devices will start charging! I've had one of these for 2 years now and it still works great. I'm able to charge my MP3 player (once the battery on it is drained) about 2.5 times with a fully-charged Portable power Pack. To charge your Power Pack, you just have to attach it to the included wall adapter. It takes about 2 hours to fully charge the Power Pack, I think?

I bought one of these and loved it. I could charge my iPod Touch, iPod, or Blackberry Storm from the device making it great to add for international flights to keep the items charged.

After roughly six months it stopped working. I loved the product so much, I ordered another one. The 2nd one doesn't work at all. Trying to return it now, but the customer support is slow so still have a worthless piece of junk for my next flight.

I'm starting to question the durability of a product where one lasted 6 months, and the other was defective upon arrival. When it works - its great. The question is, will yours work?

This product is great. It charged my iPod Touch from dead to full and still had two of the five bars remaining. At first I didn't know how great it would be because a lot of other reviews said it was bad but it truly is a very good product.

Took this on a 2-week trip to China and it worked flawlessly. If you've got the 2nd gen touch (maybe iPhone 3g, too), be careful with your rechargeable battery choice. I bought a different one at Staples first and it ALMOST charged. The Kensington was perfect. Can recharge from the battery or the a/c adapter, and it comes with outlet adapters that fit both the standard types in China. Battery is small, lightweight, and recharges my iPod quickly.

I purchased the Portable Power Pack for when I travel and found it specially useful on long flights when I wanted to watch lots of video or plays games on my iPhone.

The charge indicator lights are convenient and charging the pack is reasonably fast. At 1800mah (milliamp hours) it holds enough charge to fully revive a spent iPhone.

I would give it 5 stars had it come a couple of adapter plugs for iPods and other devices.
