More power is in the cards

If you'd like a way to charge your phone with something far smaller than the Hoover Dam – or even those power cords that somehow always get tangled up – think small. Very small. That's the idea behind Tarot, a portable power bank from Powerocks. As the name suggests, the card-sized Tarot can fit in a wallet, pocket or purse. A bit thicker than a credit card, the power bank contains a rechargeable 1500mAh lithium ion battery that can provide emergency power to phones, tablets and other portable gadgets. Available in black, silver or pink, the Tarot ships with a Micro USB to USB cable and a water-resistant pouch. It costs about $35.
