When I travel these days, I tend to look like a walking Radio Shack – cords bursting out of my pockets, bag overflowing with chargers and accessories. Partly, this is my own fault – as a tech writer, I carry around more gadgets than I strictly need. But most of the blame goes to the batteries in my iPhone and iPad, which run out so quickly that I'm forced to carry around not one, but two external battery packs to get me through a normal day of use.
