Hi Sieghard,
Actually, I do already have this model, as it is only the last
one in the list that I have just ordered but don't have yet.
Looks like this gives a 2500mah capacity according to:
www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00P7JEUCI?d=f&pd=1&qid=1425225782&sr=8-1
The charger really is just about the size of a credit card, as I
just got mine out and put the two on top of each other. Also,
when taking my iPhone 6 plus out of its case and checking, the
charger is just a little thicker. As for the lightning cable
with its connector that goes into the iPhone, it kind of gets
tucked away in a little slot on the top of the unit. But, when
one pulls it out, one sees that it runs just about the length of
the side of the charger, with maybe only a quarter of an inch
less than that.

Hi Vicky,
Thanks for these links and reviews. I'd be curious to hear what
you think about the middle item in your second list of 3
chargers, this one:
[Apple MFi Certified] EagleTec OnTop Ultra-Slim Portable External
Battery Charger Pack with Lightning Connector for iPhone 5, 5C,
6, 6 Plus, iPod, and
iPad with Brainy Technology (Black)
When I looked it up on Amazon.com it mentions it has a capacity
of 22,500 MAH and is business card size with a thickness of 0.3
inches which converts to 7.62 mm, the diameter of a 30 Caliber
bullet for those who are gun savvy or compared to the iPhone 5S
and 6, it is basically the thickness of a 5S which is 7.6mm thick
and it would be a bit thicker than an iPhone 6 which is only
6.9mm. Anyhow, this sounds interesting, but I'd be interested in
how long the integrated Lightning cable is. Is it basically the
length of the unit which is about 3 inches or is it somehow
coiled around the charger and is a bit longer. If you do end up
ordering this maybe you could measure the cable length or ask
somebody to do so and post it here.
Best regards,
Sieghard

I'd never done anything with a battery charger before, but I
recently got curious, and I wanted one with a lightning connector
or cable. My buying place of choice is Amazon here in the United
States, and I recently purchased a few of these to try, and will
likely give whatever I don't want to a family member or two.
Best of all, all the packages so far were small enough that they
could be put directly in my mailbox by the USPS mail carrier, and
the orders were fulfilled by Amazon. They ranged in price from
just over $21 to almost $56, including shipping.
I misunderstood the first unit I bought, but kind of like it,
anyway, so will likely keep the product. It doesn't have a
built-in Apple cable, but comes with a cable one may use:
[Apple Certified] UNU Superpak 10000mAh 3.1A Portable Charger
External Battery Pack with 2-in-1 Lightning Cable 8Pin and
MicroUSB Cable for iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 5S 5, Galaxy S6 S5 and other
Android Smartphone - Matte Black
www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LXL6L9E/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1425155691&s
r=8-1&pi=SL75&keywords=unu+10000+battery
The next charger I purchased, and the site did warn about this
possibility, but the small lightning cable, due to its design in
being hidden away in the battery pack, just doesn't work with the
case I have on my iPhone, and I'll not likely be taking it off
every time I want to charge the unit:
[Apple Certified] Brightech - PocketEnergy2T - Portable Battery
Charger with Integrated Lightning and Micro-USB Cables - 2600 mAh
Battery Cell - Perfect For Travel and Road Warriors - The Most
Convenient and Smart Way to Charge Your Phone On The Go - Apple
Certified
www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00IMKACHG/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1425156115&s
r=8-4&pi=SL75&keywords=usb+%26+apple+connector+battery+charger
I'll likely keep the last three chargers I bought. The first
two, I have tried them, and they do work with my phone in its
case, and I might even carry the smaller one, which will be the
middle one in this next list, with me. As for the last one that
will be listed below, I just saw and purchased it today, doing so
because it claims to have both an Apple connector, as well as a
connector to be plugged into the wall for charging, and the
product reviews were very positive. Now for those last three
links:

None of them that I have looked into buying come with a lightning
cable. You
have to use your own, which is what I do with the Anker Astro
that I was
given for Christmas.

Subject: External Battery & Lightening Cable
Hi Everyone,
I purchased an external battery pack for my 5s. The
advertisement indicated
it works with all Iphones. They did not send a lightening cable.
Can I use
my lightening cable without worrying about damaging my phone?
Thank you in advance,
Lynda
