I can't say enough about how handy this iTorch is and how completely it lives up to it's claims. I just used it repeatedly while traveling but here at home use it often as well. It doesn't take long to charge, charges my iPhone5 quickly and repeatedly before I have to recharge the iTorch itself and is small enough to fit in my pocket along with the iPhone so can charge as I am on my way to an event or while busy around the house. I have found it invaluable and will be giving these as Christmas gifts this year.
