Advice on good Portable Chargers.

[Zentra]

I'm looking into buying a portable charger to take to the park with us to charge our two Samsung Galaxy SIII's. I'd like to hear from people who have them what they think about them, and for the people who love theirs maybe makes and models? I'm looking into buying one from Amazon probably as I have free shipping and a gift card to use there.

I have the Anker Astro Mini and it's perfect. I actually purchased mine from Amazon. It was like $20 and I usually get at least 2 good charges out of it before I have to plug it in again. You can just use your USB from your regular charger and plug it in to your phone that way. But I actually purchased one of those 3-1 plugs as well.

I have a mophie that I bought specifically for that reason and used it my last two trips. It worked great!

Thanks I appreciate your suggestions. I'm looking at version of Anker on amazon that seems to have some good reviews and can charge both phones at once if we need it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009USAJCC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A294P4X9EWVXLJ

I have two Anker chargers and I like them both.

I have one I bought 2 years ago for a Disney trip. It can charge 2 devices at the same time (one at .6A, the other at 2A) and did well for us on that trip, but we still had a phone or two that died (5 of us, each with phones - but we didn't use the phones extensively).

We are going to WDW in 2 weeks and for this trip, we expect to use our devices more. Still have 5 phones (4 iPhones and 1 Blackberry) and may add an iPad into the mix.

So we went big this time - http://www.amazon.com/20000mAh-Alum.../ref=sr_1_6?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1402846593

I've had it for about a month and have used it a few times, but haven't really given it a good workout yet.

Thanks for all the great info!! We had a TYLT pack that worked fine until the cable came loose internally. I just ordered 2 different sized from Amazon.

Here is the link to Anker web site for their entire product line.
