Iphone 5 Battery Case Recommendations?

[kate-brownhill]

Every now and then, I could desperately do with some extra juice on my trusty IPhone 5. I have decided to buy one of those Battery Cases. Now, I can see a few on eBay/Amazon for around the £10 - £15 mark but reading some of the negs on there, it seems many have some problems due to cheap manufacturing. I don't really want to spend more than £50 for this so looking for some recommendations from anyone here that might be using one.

Or maybe, on second thought a key-ring external charge maybe is a better idea? Saves on increasing the size of the phone permanently.

edit - Never mind. bought this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00HH7MAUW/?tag=acorn06-21 so will see how I get on with it.

This seems to have some decent reviews although looks quite large.

I really like it!

Got it last week and charged it.

Was out at the North West 200 and was making some videos which killed the battery, went for dinner and charged it for 30 mins and my battery (Iphone 5S) was at about 80%.

Downside is that it doesn't show you how much juice it has left, apart from that really good for a few quid.
