The device pack a 800mAh battery into a compact form factor that weighs less than two AA batteries, giving you 3 hours and 50 minutes of additional talk-time for those situation where you’re nowhere near a power supply. AutoCharge, the intelligent circuitry technology built into device detects when the battery inside your smartphone is full, and automatically redirects the power to charge the batteries inside JUMP.
