REVIEW: Lenmar’s Battery Case BC5W and Retractable Cable CARET3L #MorePower | @LiveLenmar #Giveaway #BatteryCase

As you know, I’m a Mom On-the-Go. You might have seen I’m reviewing batteries lately. Why? Because after I take pictures and blast them in social media, I’m usually in the red by the end of a 2-3 hour event. My last battery was great for travel and all day conventions, but there are times I need to pack light. I found Lenmar’s Battery Case BC5W and have been testing it all week.

Here’s what I like:

  • It’s lightweight. Weighs 0.2 lbs.
  • It doubles my talk, text, and surf time = more juice for social media.
  • I can still use my phone when it’s charging.
  • I can charge both the case and my iPhone at the same time with the included micro USB cable.
  • Power indicator changes color: green (high), blue (good), then red (low).
  • You can test your battery level with one click.
  • There’s a power button if I want to save juice for later.
  • It looks clean and has a glossy finish.
  • It matches my phone. (Also comes in black and red).

SPECS:

  • Lithium-Polymer
  • 2300mAh
  • Includes: Micro-USB to USB charging cable, Headphone Extension Cable
  • Input/Output: 5V

HEADPHONE EXTENSION CABLE (included):

After using it a few days, I wanted to listen to music with headphones, but the headphone plug didn’t fit. I found the extension cable in the box. I forgot all about it! DOH

YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW:

It makes my phone look slightly longer, but for what I need, that part doesn’t bother me. The battery may run very warm toward the end of the charge while in heavy use, however, when I was listening to music and the screen was off, I didn’t have that problem. You’ll want to be aware of this and let it ventilate. It retails for about $89.99. You can learn more about Lenmar’s Battery Case BC5W here.

Lenmar’s Retractable Cable
Model: CARET3L

I don’t know about your cables, but my iPhone 5 cables get thrashed when I throw it around in my bag. I have to replace them so when I saw that Lenmar makes retractable cables, I needed to have one. The CARET3L is 2 ft long, compact, and is made for iPhone 5, iPad Mini, iPad 4th Generation, iPod Touch 5th Generation, and iPod Nano 7th Generation.

I have been using it all week and I love it! It’s perfect for what I need. It retails for about $29.99. You can learn more about Lenmar’s Retractable Charge & Sync Cable with Lightning Connector CARET3L Cable here.
