4 star reviews on amazon
I am so tempted! Would be perfect for my trips to NYC with a iPhone that’s battery likes to die quickly. The tiny pockets is the only thing holding me back right now…
if i had the cash, one of these would be headed my way, it would be great for one of my “car camping” trips where i am away from the grid and dont want to wear down my car’s battery.
Check out these comments back when it was sold in January over at tech.woot
Video from manufacturer on how they work.
So the red sling is all that is left already?
Will this charge a laptop? Or just tablets?
There seems to be an issue with the drop downs (at least using Chrome) when ordering. For instance if you choose ‘red’ then you can choose ‘sling’ then you get stuck with that being the only selection left.
EDIT: Oh, I see you have to change it back to ‘- SELECT -’ to reset the fields.
I think it would be MUCH more intuitive for users if you listed the ‘TYPE’ first, then the color, that way they could choose sling, hit the color box and if the color they want is greyed out they just change it to messenger and then can see the colors available, they wouldn’t choose a color that isn’t there so would never have to reset them back to -SELECT-.
I picked up their backpack on woot before Xmas. Took it on a multi city plane trip. Went through security 6 times and had absolutely no problems. The quality is really good. Adds a little weight to the bag but no more than carrying back up batteries. I would recommend with no reservations.
This sounds great for we city folk who spend a lot of time walking or biking without a convenient wall or car to plug into.
Very tempting…until I realized my phone is a 2100 mAh (s3) and my tablet is 4325mAh(nexus7). 3000mAh could not even charge my tablet once. 
Maybe if this was a 10,000 mAh battery I would go for it.
This seems like the dumbest idea for a product ever. Why would I not just want a bag and a charger instead of a bag with a charger built in? If I really like them together that much, I can sew the charger of my choice into the bag of my choice…
I would have expected a lot more than 3000mAh for this sort of product. I’d rather buy something like this and toss it in a bag/pocket/whatever I want instead of using a dedicated bag with only 3000mAh.

A decent bag and a 3400mAh charger with various ports for $39.99 is a pretty good deal. Buy them separate and you are most likely paying more.
Will the AC Adapter accept all voltages, or will it fry when traveling in high-powered lands?
Some of my low-power devices warm up quite a bit while charging. Will this bag, with its closed pockets, take the heat?

Came here to say the same thing. You can buy a 3600 mAh rechargeable battery on Amazon for $2.48.

Agree it’s not a product for me. But one thing you missed is that the bag has batteries in it; you charge the ‘bag’ and those batteries in turn charge the electronic stuff at a later time. If you only sewed chargers into your own bag, you’re not creating the same thing–you’re missing the batteries (plus all the different types of adapters).
Agree, saw 3000mAh, and if you want to charge more than a cellphone I cant believe this is only 3000! You need a 10000-11000 for decent tablet ‘boost’, otherwise, if half a charge is ok then go for it… nice product and idea though, just wish the power was sufficient for what it is advertising this to handle. Yes, the price is right, for what you get… but if you are a major power hog like me, you will need to spend about 50% more on a 3x larger battery. Otherwise, go for it, as it is a good buy and looks great!
