Best iPhone 3G emergency backup power source?

[hassiman]

Hi,

I am looking for suggestions as to the best emergency iPhone 3G power backup source for those long trips. I have seen the 3G Juice and a company called " "More-Thing" both offer rechargable battery packs that are ment to recharge the 3G in the field. ( when a outlet or car charger are not available.)

Has anyone tried one of these... or is there something better I should be looking at?:confused:

Thanks

I purchased a rechargable battery pack for my wife when we were passing through the airport in Hong Kong. I don't remember the brand, but it does work pretty well, I believe it was rated at 1000mAH.

I'll take a look when I get home so I can post more info about it.

I have the Richard Solo battery that I keep in my laptop bag, it works fine with the 3G and is great in a pinch.

I had a question about the battery and I got a reply from Richard himself.... Now that's customer service.:D

Just ordered the Richard Solo 1800:D
