Many of you might be familiar with PopSockets, a company that creates accessories for smartphones. For those unfamiliar, it’s a little handle of sorts that users attach to the back of their iPhone that allows them to grip the phone more comfortably, while also doubling up as a kickstand.

Now the company has unveiled a new iPhone accessory called the JumpStart which at its core is still a concept familiar to most, but it actually doubles up as a power bank for your iPhone. It isn’t a wireless power bank so what it actually does is that it comes with a hidden charging cable that users can unwind and charge their phone while on the go.

The built-in battery is rated at 2,200mAh so it should be enough to give your iPhone enough juice to last you for the remainder of the day. According to the company, “Easily swap out any PopGrip with Jumpstart, and unwrap the hidden charging cord to start juicing the battery back up within seconds. Jumpstart provides a convenient all-in-one phone grip and portable charging solution and contains a 2200 mAh internal battery with pass-through charging.”

The PopSockets JumpStart grip is priced at $35 and can be ordered via the company’s website. There is also a USB-C version that will work for Android devices.
