Mophie Juice Pack Wireless Charge Force Review
Let's just get it out of the way, the Mophie Juice Pack Wireless is the best implementation of the Qi Wireless standard and battery pack together all-in-one that I've ever tested. It solves several issues for me:
- Extended battery life.
- Charges with sufficient power to handle GPS and charging battery at same time.
- Qi and Powermat Charging compatible.
To my knowledge, its currently the only product on the market capable of doing the three things above, for that alone its worth a 'recommended' from me.
However, its not perfect. One annoying thing is that in a quiet room, with the phone next to you charging from the battery or Qi or both I hear an electric pulsing sound. It is annoying enough that I don't want it charging next to me in my home office. I think this will go away with age (of the user) and the ability to hear higher frequencies. I really don't know if its a defect with mine or if they are all like that as I don't hear anybody else complaining about this in any other review. I will write Mophie about this and see what they say.
Second thing I see a lot of reviewers have issue with is the magnetic mount. You have to get their system in order to have it mount properly. That means either the desk mount, or the car mount (at the time of this review). The included base does not have enough magnetic properties to mount on the wall and that is by design. If the magnets in the base were as strong as those on the car/desk mount, you'd life the base right up ever time.
The above two mounts should work just fine. I bought the desk mount, and converted it to a car mount / desk mount hybrid by using it with an Ottie system so that mine attaches via suction cup and microsuction to surfaces and windshields. The case itself has some magnets, which then align with the magnets in the Mophie mounts to create a solid magnetic connection. Having used it the past 2-3 weeks now, it works as advertised.
One final thing is that the kit does not come with an AC Adapter to USB that works with it. You need to find and use your own, and the one from the iPhone will not cut it. Get an iPad capable one, that puts out 2 Amps and you will be fine.
is a very special iPhone dock, charging cable, synching cable, and stand all-in-one device. In fact, its the most flexible product of its kind I've ever tried. No wonder the 
retails for $99.99. I would typically say that Monster Cable products are overpriced for what they do, but seeing as most of the competition that makes iphone batteries are about that price they don't seem out of line.
