Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Griffin TuneJuice 2 Battery Backup for iPod (Black)Customer Review: Not as good as expected. Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased the TuneJuice 2 because a review I read said it would work with the iPhone. I needed it because I was flying cross country - twice. I wanted to watch movies on the plane and while waiting at the airport, and I know that the iPhone battery wouldn't last 10 hours.
When plugging in the TuneJuice 2 the iPhone states that the device was not made for the iPhone - and that I should turn in Airplane mode. Not a problem on the plane, but not desired in the airport waiting to board.
The TuneJuice 2 does not charge the iPhone - which I knew, but it was supposed to maintain the iPhone's battery level. What I found was that the device slowed the battery drain while watching movies. Also - because of the short cord, the TuneJuice made it uncomfortable to hold the iPhone during the flight. I either had to place both the phone and battery on my lap and look down - or hold both up in an unnatural position.
Finally - there was no indication anywhere of when the batteries in the case died - so halfway through the flights, the iPhone discharge quickly.
Pros - The TuneJuice 2 did help me watch movies on my iPhone during cross country flights.
Cons - No battery level indicator / Doesn't charge phone or boost the battery at all - only slows iPhone discharge rate / Uncomfortable to use.
