Looking for the perfect way to charge your lightening devices on the go? Charging with NOMAD is the perfect solution.
Our house is a highly connected house with a number of devices that need to be charged. No matter how many cables we have around it seems like we never have one when we needed it. For me, as a blogger, I am often working with my laptop and phone for long hours during the day. I love being able to charge my phone with my computer but find the long cords really frustrating. I’ve found the answer!
Some of the things that are cool about NOMAD:
Their products, ChargeKey & ChargeCard:
- World’s smallest, most portable USB cables
- Shaped like a house-key and credit card, respectively
- Allows for charging from any USB port (works just like your standard iPhone 5 cable) and full data transfer when connected to a computer
- Easy to use, easy to carry and flexible
- Not easily damaged so can be taken anywhere and withstand the rough treatment of keys.
- ChargeCard fits in your wallet
- Great low price!
My husband and I tried both products for two weeks. I took the ChargeCard in my purse and he clipped the ChargeKey to his car keys. The result – neither of us had any problem charging my iPhone or his iPad. The ChargeKey and ChargeCard worked without fail and plugged into a variety of different computers and the USB connector in our car. The flexibility of the devices is fantastic when you have a small space to work and charge. The ChargeKey and ChargeCard are perfect for travel, for work or any situation where you need to charge your phone and don’t have access to a plug or lightening cable. Charging with NOMAD is so easy, I can’t wait to show this off at my next blogging conference!
One lucky Family Food and Travel reader will win a choice of a NOMAD ChargeKey or ChargeCard – open to Canada and US – ends May 30, 2014
Disclosure: I received product to facilitate this review. As always, all opinions are 100% my own.
I was just camping and the rain made it impossible to charge things as I forgot my outdoor extension cord so i had no electricity running to my tent. This would have been perfect . Thanks for chance.
Our phones are constantly running out of battery and it would awesome to be able to keep this little device on my keychain, so that I can charge my phone while I’m out somewhere!
This looks incredibly convenient, and I constantly have a dying iPad.
My husband dropped me off at the train station to board the train to southern Ontario. The train ended up being five hours late. I had to sit in the isolated train station with a cell phone and iPad that was dwindling in power and no way to charge them.
I could really make good use of one.
We totally just bought these! They are pretty awesome :)

when i wasnt watching my power on my phone and it died unexpectedly
I would like to have this as I find when I am out for the day and if I use my iPhone a lot the battery dies so this would be amazing to have on my key chain and never having to worry about my phone dying.
on our last vacation our iPhone battery died in the airport while we were trying to contact family
Our hydro went out during a winter storm and our cells ran out of juice.
My iPhone battery is always dying. I could have really used this when I was driving out of town last week.
We recently travelled to PA and no cord to charge my phone. This would have been great.
I could have used this during #darknl when Newfoundland had the frequent power outages and rotating blackouts this past winter. My phone was nearly dead when the power went out on a few occasions.
My phone is always running down and this would be perfect for me. As well. I walk every day with my Ipod and am constantly needing to recharge it. I could certainlu use this@
love the tiny compact size- always will come in super-handy!
when i was traveling
convenient
this would be great for when the power goes out. it seem when that happens our cellphone are almost dead
This would be incredibly handy for me.
I always use so much power on my phone while at work, and don’t have the chance to stop somewhere and plug in a regular charger, so this would be great!
I was on call for the hospital when my cell died. I definitely could hav
sorry…I definitely could have used this!
I’d wished I’d had it while camping.
when my phone dies…regularly
I always wish I had something like this when I am travelling!
handy!
I’m always forgetting to recharge my phone at night so this would be so convenient.
I really could have used this when my phoned died… when we were camping and I was giving my husband directions how to get to the campground :0
Having a Charge Card to take with me to the office would be so convenient!
When travelling and packing in rush and forgetting charger
My iPhone battery was down to 12% the other day when I was out running errands. I’d love to have a charger for when it’s running low like that.
Im always in this situation. I drive a truck and my cell is always with me.
WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD
Just running errands. My phone is always dying on me when I am out and about :)
My mom’s smart phone is constantly running out of batteries. She is building a house that does not have electricity yet, so she could use this to charge her phone in the car.
My phone regularly runs out of juice late in the afternoon. I can almost never call when I’m on the bus heading home…
to have it with me when travelling
Went camping and forgot my charging cord for my phone at home so this would of came in handy.
When I take the wrong charger for the wrong device.
C’ est une sécurité quand on part en auto on ne vérifie pas toujours le niveau de charge de la batterie du cellulaire, mais on apporte toujours les clés. C’ est une très bonne idée de placer le rechargeur dans notre porte-clés.
Anytime I’m on the go because my stupid android always runs out of life so fast and dies!!
My husband always forgets to charge his phone, so this would be great for him
i could use this for my ipad while travelling
I pretty much am out and about everywhere, there are times that I dont’ like to carry much with me, this would be ideal for those situations. Looks really great.

We went to Washington and didn’t take the correct cord for the phone. This would have been perfect.
nearly every day. my device runs out of power and i’m scrambling for a cable to get it juiced back up.
Anytime I’m on the go or at a friend’s home and need to charge my device but I don’t have a cable.
I went to charge my mom’s iPad…no cable and the battery was down to 2%. OMG, I could have used this!
because my phone always dies!
When we go camping it’s important to keep my phone charged
When we are on vacation and with all the picture taking, GPS guidance and music listening…batteries are used up super fast and I always wish we had this to charge up our phone because we always forget to bring our cords.
we visit relatives in nb every year and ive forgotten my charger on multiple occasions. this would have been so handy!
This would be useful!
when I was in a middle of a game and the battery died!
I could of used one when I was at work without my charger and I needed to call for a ride home.
We are always traveling and my phone battery is on it’s last leg. I am always needing to charge it. All of my battery pack chargers are huge.

phones are always dying, seems like when we get separated at the mall and can’t call each other to find one another
I wish I had one of these when at blog conferences! My phone is always dying just when I need it most!

I have always wished to have a charger like this , certainly for when I go camping this summer
My sons grad :( started filming, ipad battery drained…super upset :(
I wish I had this when we went on our last trip.
This is the most incredible and innovative tool that everyone should own.
I could have used during this winters 3 day power outage
I wish I had it when we had gone camping.
this is so kool could really use :)
I was traveling to my daughter’s on a greyhound bus for 8 hours and forgot to charge the ipad the night before. What a long trip that was!
the battery on my phone is always running down and this would be perfect
During a layover, found that my plane was delayed repeatedly. Unfortunately my phone ran out of battery, but finding an open outlet to charge was practically impossible. One of these would have made the experience a bit less stressful.
While I was at school and forgot to charge my phone. It would have been good if I had this product.
This would have been great when I was travelling!
I love this and it would be so ideal on family road trips and camping when you just need your phone ipad to be recharged!
charging the cell while travelling or camping!
road trips. thanks
I wished I had one of these when I was traveling in Florida during Christmas. My phone was constantly dying.
Travelling with my cell phone would be so much better if I had a charger along.
When my phone is dying
All. The. Time!!!!! New iPhone 5 so all my chargers are the old connection. :(

We were traveling in Ecuador and I had such a hard time keeping my ipad charged. I could have used this to charge off the laptop!
When I am on vacation and there are not plugs when my phone is dying.
Have an ipad and iphone, use them constantly… so they are always in need of a power up.
We go camping on the week-end and don’t always have the chance plug in our phones. One time, my grandson hurt himself and my daughter was trying to reach me, but the phones were dead. This would have been great to keep the phone charged up in case of emergency.
when i am camping
we forgot the charger when we packed for the long weekend at the cottage. If it were attached to my keys I wouldn’t have to worry!
When we visited the Inlaws and spent the weekend
When we visited the Inlaws and spent the weekend. Thanks for the chance
My phone is always running out of battery because I’m always on it or my friends kids are playing games on my phone so there are multiple situations where I could have used one of these.
i go to a lot of concert and take tons of pictures there has been times when my phone has died and i wished that i had a charger with me so i could take more pictures i get so upset
My phone died and I was on my way to an appointment so I didn’t have the directions to the office because I was using the navigator app on my phone.
My phone died while stuck in traffic and late for an appoinment.
Travelling by car and need to recharge my iPad.
Using my iPod on vacation to take pictures when it ran out of charge.
This would be great for long road trips with my husband.
I could have used this when I was traveling out of town and my phone died. I needed to call work for something important and couldn’t. This key would have come in handy!
I’d like one for vacation.
Every time I go to a PR event for the day, I’m on my phone so much that I lose the charge! I would love an “on the go” charging cable that is handy like this so that I don’t have to remember to bring my cord. I do already have an extra battery pack :) Thanks for the giveaway!

I think it would perfect in any daily situations. Nothing is worse than dragging around a cable in your purse and few people are ever far from a computer to plug in a USB. Work, school, friend’s house etc. If you have your keys, there is no reason to leave home without it.
Almost everyday I forget to charge my phone before leaving the house because I am always so rushed. So, this would definitely come in handy.
this looks like a fantastic and helpful product. my phone is only lasting half a day now.
I could use this throughout the day. My phone is always losing battery life.
