iPhone battery cases are not an uncommon product category, but when you add in a Bluetooth headset and smart battery management you end up with a truly unique product. The On3 PowerCliq is just such a product. Featuring a 2,700 mAh battery built-in to a protective case for the iPhone, this case is a great start, but there's more.

Adding a Bluetooth 4.0 headset that holsters directly into the case makes this double trouble. Protecting a Bluetooth headset, or even just carrying it, can be a real pain, so having somewhere attached to the phone makes it convenient. When you combine it with the connected app, the case can actually determine when is the best time to charge the battery to protect its longevity.

The PowerCliq was available on Kickstarter for $88 and will be available soon.
