    ZAGGsparq 2.0 Review (& Giveaway US/CAN Ends 6/17)

    By 643 Comments

    ABOUT:

    ZAGGsparq 2.0 is a portable power device that is a convenient size and perfect for gadget lovers!  It plugs into a standard outlet and provides two USB ports for charging mobile devices.  Then you unplug the ZAGGsparq 2.0 and it carries multiple charges for any personal device that can be powered by a USB cord – four complete recharges for power-hungry devices!  It works on everything from cell phones to hand-held gaming systems!  It actually has the power to charge most smart phones four times and has an indicator to display power level (25%-50%-75%-100%)  It also takes the iPad from 0% to 60% at the same rate the wall charger chargers the iPad.

    The small size makes it perfect for storing in bags and pockets, and it offers the convenience of carrying a universal USB device!

    MY THOUGHTS:

    Okay first off let me say my family and I could not live without our Apple devices, especially our iPod Touch, iPhones, and iPad.  It started out with my husband getting an iPhone then since the monthly service plan wasn’t in our budget for me, I got an iPod Touch, then we upgraded my husband’s iPhone so his old phone because an iPod Touch and then we got the iPad.  Not only do we rely on them for work, email, and entertainment, but they really are great to keep kids occupied in lets say the car, a restaurant, doctors office or as a potty training tool (yes I let my son play Angry Birds but only if he sits on the potty!)

    Now usually I can charge our apple devices overnight or whenever we are not using them, but I do forget and when the one I need is dead, it sucks!  For example, the other night we were taking the kids out to dinner. Usually I let them each play with an iPod at the restaurant when they have exhausted crayons and other small toys, but when I grabbed one it was completely dead.  So since I had just charged the ZAGGsparq, I grabbed that and the apple USB cord and plugged my iPod Touch into it and threw it into my purse.  By the time we arrived at the restaurant 15 minutes later my iPod Touch was up and running, with actually quite a lot of battery life (it didn’t die until the next day.)  My sons were each happy and therefore my husband and I were able to enjoy our meals!

    After seeing how awesome the ZAGGsparq is, my husband has decided he wants to keep it with him for work in case his iPhone or iPad die, both of which he uses for work purposes as well.  Now the way the ZAGGsparq works is you plug it in to an actual outlet and let it charge.  Then when all four lights are lite up its ready to grab and go.  Then when you need to charge a device (or two since there are two USB ports) you just plug them into the ZAGsparq and it charges the devices for you without needed to be by a computer or an outlet.  This would be great too for traveling, I know I have had trouble finding a plug in an airport!  The ZAGGsparq will tell you by the push of a button how much charge is left and it is small enough to store anywhere!  I have tried similar devices in the past like this, but the ZAGGsparq is definitely my new favorite.  Also, I should add the ZAGGsparq is not just for Apple products but anything you can charge with a USB cord – phones, MP3 players and more!

    BUY IT: The ZAGGsparq can be purchased directly from ZAGG for $99.99 or look for it where electronics are sold.

    WIN IT: (2) US/CAN winners will receive a ZAGGsparq 2.0 ($100 value)

      I recently tried https://cbdforlife.us/products/cbd-sleep-gummies for the first ever and I must assert, I’m impressed with the results. I felt more tranquil and at ease, and my anxiety was significantly reduced. The gummies tasted spacious and were unhurried to consume. I’ll definitely be using them again and would propose them to anyone looking for a simple retreat to alleviate grief and anxiety.

      I could have used this when my battry died and I got lost and had to drive around to find a pay phone (which is very very hard to find nowadays) but I found the pay phone after getting even more lost.

      I could have used it last weekend when three people (one being my husband and two being my kids!) were arguing over the charge device for the iTouch when we went out of town this last weekend.

      We’d use it to charge the hubby and kid’s iTouch devices (now to debate who’s worse with loving these things…husbands or children…oh wait, that’s another story). ;o)

      There are many times in the past where we’ve been out and about and the kids complain that their ipod touch or cell phone have died. While I’d prefer them to learn to be more responsible, this would help us out when mom and dad have those irresponsible days as well with their iphones…

      I would charge my iPhone with it. Believe it or not, I have an external power source for it already (Mophie) but with the games I play on it all day and the email I get, it uses both batteries. So this would help greatly.

      PS> Don’t get caught up with Words With Friends or Hanging with Friends without an external battery pack! 🙂

      I could REALLY have used a portable charging device when my husband was out at our farmland putting in crops and phone was dead. (no electricity) I was worried sick and if he had this, I would not have wanted to KILL him for making me worry! LOL.

      He’s such a techi wannabe and would LOVE this!

      thanks much!

      I could have used one the zaggsparq when my husband and I went flea market hunting a few weeks ago. It was so embarrassing cause my phone died and i thought no big deal but my mom who lives in another state for some reason just had to get ahold of me and so she ended calling my father in law who in turn called my hubby. geez. all because she hadn’t heard from me in about a week.

      We have two smart phones, some digital cameras, and miscellaneous other gadgets that we use. While most of the little things would likely be fine, we do use the cameras and phones quite a bit so having an adapter/charger would be useful for us, especially as some of our days run long and we’ve been using our phones quite a bit.

      Last week, I was going away on a business trip for three days.

      I forgot to charge my phone and it was almost out of battery life. I had to switch phones with our Son – something he was not very happy about. He begged me not to answer his friend’s text messages because he was worried I would embarrass him. Teenagers!

      This device would have been great to charge my phone.

      Thanks for the wonderful giveaway! – Pauline

      I remember when we drove to AK from LA we didn’t remember our charger…or just couldn’t find the darn thing and had to meet our SIL in MT to borrow hers for half way to AK. We still don’t have one and it’s annoying.

      I’d charge my phones and ipod with this.

      My biggest problem is forgetting to charge my cell phone. I get really nervous if I don’t hear from my kids when they get home from school every day and there have been a few times where I’ve had to have a family member contact them to ensure they are home. Honestly, I would really prefer that this never happens.
