The Amtrak trains I've been on in the NorthEast Corridor route (NYC > DC), have had outlets, although I think it may vary by car. The Acela definitely does, and I believe Business Class on the regular train does. The coach car might, this one I'm not as sure of.Being that I'm going to have a long travel for my vacation this summer, I'm probably going to need an external battery. Unless Amtrak has wall sockets by the passenger seats?
I'd like it to be these guys.

I've been meaning to write them to learn their plans, just too busy lately.
I do wonder, with the speaker at the bottom and the kickstand in the middle, how much they could do with the space available though. :hmmmm:
I use the Motorola Universal Dual-Charging Portable Power Pack (Black, Retail Packaging) for my OG Evo from time to time....

I'd be willing to lose temporary use of the kickstand for a battery case. I'd only be using it for all-day events like conventions or concert festivals and the like, where the need for the kickstand will be nil.
I'm sending an email to them now asking if they're planning on making one for the LTEvo.
I just ordered this one. Dude does a pretty good video review in comments/review section.

Got this in the mail on Thursday and played around with it for a bit. I'm digging it so far. Nice, compact, solidly built. Comes with a good array of connectors too. I'll try to do a full charge on the LTEVO and post how long it takes...but so far, thumbs up!
It's a good charger. I think the Anker is just a name brand that uses the same package as other packs on Amazon like the Powergen (just a guess). Anyway, I have used the older version Powergen 4400mah and Anker 8400mah dual usb packs and both are great. Usually on Amazon, the retailer of the Anker has a sale where if you buy 2 models, they give a discount.
The Anker 8400 is a dual usb charger, 600mah and 2ah output. The 5600 Anker I think uses a 1ah output so it mostly works for phones. I think some tablets require at least 2ah.
The Anker's chargers will charge your phone as fast the wall charger which came with the phone ... if you use that cable which comes with the Anker's
I use the Anker 5600 with my One X.
5600 and 8400 are mAh, the capacity of the Anker charger's battery.
So, the 8400 will charging your phone more times as the 5600
Should do it about three times fom 20% to 100%

i mentioned earlier in this thread i also picked up the incredicharge 1100mah unit. it has charged everything ive plugged into it. BT phones, lte evo, ps vita. charges the phone using AC charging and not USB charging (included charge cable) swiftly. recommended for sure.
