Mobile phones are incredibly convenient -- until the moment they run out of juice. They routinely have to be tethered to the wall for hours at a time and often require you to carry a USB connector or a charger around with you. The PowerCurl Mini is a combination adapter and adjustable sleeve that compactly facilitate refueling and a place to tidily arrange those fussy wires.
The Quirky product was inspired by the Apple MacBook PowerCurl, but this one was launched specifically for the release of the iPhone 5. It's got a hollow center for the insertion of the necessary electrical hookup and flexible silicone skirting that enables you to wrap your charger cable or your earbuds around the PowerCurl Mini.
