iPad Battery Backup

[CC268]

Just wondering if you guys have any good suggestions for a good iPad battery backup? It looks like the Lenmar Mutant is probably the best one out there - but they look to be all sold out (I might just wait for them to come back in stock anyways).

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I have been happy with my RAVPOWER backup. It has seen almost daily use and did very well for almost a year. While the indicator lights showed that it was fully charged it quit working 3 weeks before the one year warranty ran out. I sent the company an email telling them that it wasn't working and they replied requesting that I verify my address. After I did so they immediately sent me a replacement at no charge.

I have an external battery. It will not charge an iPad much while in use but it prevents the battery from going down any more. I have run my iPad for 3 hours at 30-32% using the battery's 2A port. And the price is pretty good. Any of them like this should work fine, just be sure to look at the milli-amp-hour rating.

I have several external batteries for the I pad,use them mostly when boating. Not sure I would count on them for the I pad while flying. The twelve volt plug does it for me.

This is the one I have:

They do have one with a 26800 mah rating. The 16750 is capable of taking my IPAD Air2 from less than 10% back to a full charge while it is being used.

I have the RavPower as well, but went with the bigger model. I've used it to recharge my iPad and iPhone at the same time with no issues. Love the brick and no issues with mine so far...

I really like the Anker brand. Easy to get off Amazon, attractive price and works great.

RAVPower. Inexpensive, always in stock, works as advertised.

+1 on Anker. This one has 4.8A output and holds 20,000mAh of juice. I use it for work and travel with it everywhere. I even power my MacBook with it. And it costs $40.

I have two of these

I put one on each side of the cockpit in the map pocket and hook one up to my iPad and the other to my iLevil. They will last all day. I highly recommend them. I used them going to, during and returning from Sun N Fun. They worked great. You need to keep them out of direct sun though so they won't overheat.

Another vote for RavPower. 26800 mAh monster, charges one device at 2.4A, another at 2.0, and one more at 1.0 simultaneously and has a 2.0A charging input. Works very well. On sale now for $50, got mine on sale for $40.

A USB 5V outlet on the panel is hard to beat. I use two:

• A charger in the cigarette lighter.
• A PMA 450 audio panel provides one as a bonus feature.
