There’s no denying the iPhone is an ingenious product. Most us either have one or know someone who does. The only problem is trying to use it while it’s charging.

 

Let’s face it, no one wants to put down his phone and wait for it to finish charging. Trying to text or play Angry Birds with it plugged in is a hassle and often ends up with a tangled or busted cord that needs to be replaced.

 

The Bobine Travel Charger is the perfect solution. This flexible, sturdy charger serves as a cord and dock rolled into one. The long, snake-like contraption is wrapped in military-grade, nickel-plated steel designed to prevent it from breaking or succumbing to liquid like spilled soda.

 

It contains a plug and a USB connector so you can plug it in just about anywhere. The cord is strong enough to hold your iPhone upright while you use it. No more lying it on the table beside you or next to your computer and no more wondering where you put it because it’ll be right in the air in your line of sight.

 

They make Bobine chargers for all the recent iPhone versions, including the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. The charger retails for $35, which is quite a steal considering how long it’ll last you. We think that’s better than paying $20 a few times a year to replace your frayed Apple charger.

 

Learn more about the Bobine on their Kickstarter page, as well as their website.

These Cities Have the Most Top-Rated Bars

As a result, it uncovered what it feels are the U.S. destinations with the most highest-rated bars — and when you think cocktail culture, you probably don’t think about the city that came out on top.
