Review – Mophie Juice Pack Air

Sadly, San Diego Comic Con International comes but once a year. And with it officially behind us, it’s time to remember the fun. Or remember why we had so much fun, being that my iPhone had enough battery power to make it through. Since having a kid last year, it’s been a while since I’ve
