Electronics Portable Battery Chargers

Looking for a REALLY good battery charger. The kind that you charge at home, and you bring with you to charge mobile devices like your tablet and/or phone. I've went through two of these things, and they all suck.

I bought the cheapest one there was at Wal-Mart and not surprisingly it was terrible. It gave me maybe 15% extra on my Samsung Note phone. Then I bought this thing http://www.nomorerack.com/daily_deal.../270390?n=1663
It gives me maybe about 40% extra on my phone. I'm looking for something that can give 4-5 ENTIRE charges to a mobile device.

I have a Microsoft Surface Pro and I love it, only problem is the battery only lasts about 4 hours. And unfortunately the Surface has a goofy plug of it's own so it would probably need a regular outlet on it. I need something that can charge it ENTIRELY at least 2 times. Has anybody had success with one of these battery packs, to charge your devices fully?

I picked up one of these last month when it was on sale for $35
12000 mah

I really really like it

The Cables that it comes with are okay but I use my own anyway.

the 2.1a charge port is a nice feature - so is the cable carry bag.

edit:

sorry i missed the part about a regular outlet - i dont know anything that would have that except perhaps a car inverter
