5. ChargeTech 18,000mAh White Portable Battery Pack ($115)

The worst part about working in coffee shops or your public library has to be when you finally settle in, only to notice your laptop is dying and there isn't an available outlet in sight. This portable battery comes in three different sizes, and offers USB ports as well as an AC outlet so you can charge up your computer, tablet, and phone all at once. Buy it on Amazon.

6. Bose QuietComfort 20 ($299)

Have noisy neighbors, neighborhood construction, or just a rattling air conditioner that you've been dying to drown out? These Bose headphones have earned top-notch reviews.
