Remember dictionaries? Never mind--they’re all inside your phone now, but in an homage to the dictionary stands of the past, we present this little black aluminum stand for your phone or tablet to sit on while you look stuff up, or do anything else. Measures 4" tall x 4-1/2" x 3" with a ledge with silicone pads and keyed holes to organize the cords through when the battery runs low. Bottom also has pads to keep it from sliding around. Will work with most phones and tablets up to a 9” screen.

We suggest you take this one. Made as a promotional device, it never got its promo logo and the light only shines for about 30 seconds, we think to highlight the absent logo. But it kept its ability to make your tablet stand up and be seen. The stand measures approx 5" long, and the light measures about 1.5" x 1". Comes with a 3.5" stylus nestled inside to give your finger a break, and a gray velvet pouch to store it in. Runs on (3) AG-13 button cell batteries, included, and you're welcome.

Wouldn't you rather hear that than "Is that a cell phone in your pocket...?" Yes, you would, and you will if you strap on this olive green w/ woodland camo highlights phone holster. Made to strap (we like saying that) to your leg above your knee, like Wyatt Earp's Colt (or any number of the army surplus gas masks we sell), but you can also attach it to your arm or some other handy body part because the two straps extend from 15" to 27" and 10" to 13". The weather resistant holster is 7" x 6" with a 5" zipper, and the phone is operable in situ, as it were, through the transparent protective covering. Manufacturer calls it a "Hunter's Phone Holster," but don't let that stop you from wearing it around the neighborhood. Also adaptable, we think, to small dogs.

Ear buds, period. These are your standard, everyday versions—except the cords on these are green, which works well on March 17, even if bars aren’t back to full capacity. They fit standard headphone jacks, and have a mic and a clip to hold it. Cables are approx 40”. No case, but at this price we recommend getting a pair for every desk, end table, glove compartment, purse and pocket you have. And a pair each for all your St. Paddy’s Day-reveling friends, too. Green wires and black buds.

Made to work with any wireless charging-enabled device, this inductive charging pad measures 7-1/2" x 4” in flexible non-slip silicone for gripping any surface, including dashboards. Designed with a tray-like depression, so phones won’t take a hike, it’s also a phone stand so you can see the directions on the GPS maps. Though wireless, it also includes a USB charging cable, which we think is a nice touch.

Ditch the wires and start picking up good vibrations with this excellent wireless Qi charger from Philips. This 3-1/2" round disc with an anti-slip bottom is like a coaster for your phone with the ability to quickly recharge your phone. Works with most smartphones with an inductive charging feature and has protection against overheating and overcharging. The LED charging indicator turns off for your sleeping convenience. Comes with a 6-foot micro-USB cord, but you supply the power supply—most 9v or 5v rated for 2A outputs should do it. Yes, your phone must have an inductive charging feature.

Actually, it's a high-speed phone/device charger for the accessory plug in any car—we just said Dodge Charger for a joke, which people expect. This 2.1A rapid charger fits in a cigarette lighter plug, and has a built-in USB port. Comes with a retractable, 3-foot cord attachment with a USB plug at one and a micro-USB at the other. You pick the purple, green, orange or blue pair to match your car, hair or eyes.

It's the Hollywood Selfie Pole Monopod, and the name alone is making us go all soft in the middle. Starts out 8-1/2” long and extends to a very sturdy 39” with a camera thread at the end to hold the cell-phone holder. And like many people in Hollywoodland, it probably won't work as intended. The handle was meant to recharge with the included USB cord and connect to your phone with Bluetooth, however we've found that the non-replaceable batteries are mostly non-working or only hold a charge for a few minutes, like a faded actor's career. Sold for the robust stick itself because your arms aren't long enough. And you can always repurpose it for long distant tasks.

This 7-foot length of standard 4-wire gray telephone cord has a modular plug on each end and an in-line 1-1/2" x 1" dia interference blocking RF filter at one end. 'Nuff said.

This 6” long micro-USB to USB charge and data cable is fabric-covered and has rubber flanges and collars at both ends to protect it from fraying or breaking. Sound like a cable you already have? Probably not. But even if it does, you can never have too many: in the car, office and sock drawer, and on the bike, boat, kayak and scooter. You need charger cables. We all do.
