Hi there I can't remember what the brand is; maybe I should. However, I do remember that the instructions on it say that the battery life of the device can be extended by not waiting until the charge is all gone before plugging it back in. This is the because the number of charges in my battery pack is listed at 500 full charges, and topping up the battery (the instructions say) does not count against the 500 times. I am so used to the ones that you had to run down or it ruined the battery that it has taken me some convincing to realize I don't need to do that any more.
I have not run out of power while talking on my iPhone since I got it, partly because of having the battery pack but also because of the ability to find out how much power I have from the iPhone.
