One of the essentials for Disney World nowadays is your phone.
EPCOT
You need to use it for Genie+ (if you’ve chosen to buy it), the My Disney Experience App, and you can even use contactless payments to pay for your snacks in the park. And to keep your phone alive, you’ll likely need to bring in a portable charger. You can grab some in the parks, but you’re paying WAY too much for them.
All over the Disney World parks you’ll find Fuel Rod Stations. Fuel Rods are portable chargers that go for $30 each in Disney World. When yours runs out of battery, just replace it with another one at any Fuel Rod station for no additional cost.

$30 isn’t bad for a fuel rod that technically doesn’t run out, but you could be getting them for cheaper! Did you know you can get a pack of TWO Fuel Rods on Amazon for $34.99 — you’ll basically save $25!

These are the exact same brand, so they can be swapped out at the Fuel Rod locations within Disney World, and now you will have TWO, so someone else in your party can also re-charge!

So plan ahead, bring these with you, and you’ll save $25 you can use for other things on your vacation — personally we’re gonna use it to buy MORE SNACKS! As always, stay tuned to DFB for all the latest Disney news!

Better advice. Don’t buy these. They charge amazing slow. They don’t charge a phone even to full. Instead spend good money and get a battery from Anker or Baseus. I personally use Baseus and love it.
