Well, there are two ways you can go. You can get a Mophie juice Pack,
which is a case that has a built in back up battery. When placing the
phone in the case, the connector on the bottom of the phone plugs nicely
into a plug in the case. There is a micro USB connector on the bottom of
the case that is used to charge the phone and the pack. When your
battery level on the phone is low, there is a switch on the back of the
case that you push down to turn on the back up battery. It will charge
the phone, and you can also use the phone while this is going on. I
have the Mophie Juice Pack Helium, which is the smallest of the Juice
packs. It feels allot like the Otter Box impact. It does add some weight
to the phone, and some thickness, but doesn't really take much away from
the form factor of the phone.
The Juice Pack is a case, so you would not use it with a phone that is
already in a case.
The other choice would be to use one of the many external charging
batteries that are on the market from brands like Mophie, Mycharge,
Incredicharge, Limeaid, etc. These are basically bricks that have 2 or
more ports that allow you to charge one or more devices at the same
time, like your phone, Bluetooth headset or keyboard, etc. They are
great for folks who travel often, and may be in places where they do not
have access to AC. But if you are not traveling overnight, and just need
a boost to get your phone through the day, something like the mophie
Juice Pack may be all that you need.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] Otter box with a battery pack?
Hi,
I use an otter box case on my iPhone. I'm considering getting a longer
lasting battery pack to help out with GPS. If I do, can I still use the
Otter box or would I have to use a different case?
Thanks!
