Picture it: You’re in Disney World or Disneyland, having the time of your life! You’re hitting all the rides you want using Disney Genie+ and by checking wait times on My Disney Experience or the Disneyland app. You’re eating everything on your Dining Bucket List with a little help from Mobile Order and all the Advance Dining Reservations you’ve made. Then suddenly it’s the perfect moment to snap that precious picture of your little one with the one and only MICKEY MOUSE! And THAT’S when it happens…

You’ve received the dreaded “Low Battery” message on your phone. We’ve all been there… and frankly, we’ve been there more often these days with all of the trip planning tools available on our phones, which also happen to be our cameras. You’ve got to recharge your phone STAT. 

The DFB team is in Disney World LITERALLY EVERY DAY, so we can relate! Our reporters are spending several hours in the parks on the daily, snapping all sort of pics, using Disney Genie+ and the My Disney Experience app, and constantly communicating using various apps so we can keep you in the know about all-things-Disney. So believe me when I say that we rely heavily on portable chargers so we don’t miss a minute of the Disney doings!

Here we’ve compiled a list of recommendations featuring some of our favorite portable chargers so if YOU get caught with that dreaded “Low Battery” message during your trip, you can be prepared with one of your own!

FuelRod 2-Pack — Compatible with Disney kiosks!

FuelRods come as part of a full kit which also includes charging cables for various iPhone or micro USB Android devices and a USB C Adapter (needed for some Android devices). But the best thing to know about FuelRods when it comes to your Disney trip is that there are FuelRod kiosks ALL OVER DISNEY WORLD and — if your FuelRod dies — you can swap it out for a charged one at any FuelRod station, so you’ll never be left high and dry if your charger needs a charge of its own. Though you can also purchase FuelRods in the parks, we recommend purchasing a FuelRod 2-pack in advance. Why? Because you’ll receive TWO for right around $35, whereas you would pay $38 for JUST ONE at Disney.
