DO NOT BUY cheap Chinese battery packs. DO NOT BUY Duracell cell phone accessories and battery packs - they are not made by Duracell but license to a low-end accessories company in New York that uses the cheapest crap from China.
Not sure where you think most of these products are made, including your phone. The top rated company in almost any review for portable chargers is Anker, started by an ex-Google engineer and based in China. Anker has outstanding products by almost any criterion. Also would like to know where you buy high quality battery chargers that are made completely in the US from US produced parts. I doubt if such a company exists. But please enlighten me.
