Deal: Three smart car accessories to keep you charged and fresh

The invention of smartphones has changed road trips forever. Instead of sing-a-longs and “I Spy” we’re streaming music and playing Candy Crush until we get car sick. All of this technology has created a need for car accessories. We’ve got some great deals to keep your phone charged, mounted, and smelling fresh (you’ll see).

Phones have not only replaced paper maps, but also stand-alone GPS devices. With a car mount, you can display your phone to easily read the turn-by-turn directions. With so many different sizes of Android phones you’ll want a universal car mount. The ExoMount Touch can fit any phone up to 3.5-inches wide. It has a suction cup so you can put it anywhere in your car. [$19.99]

The Zus Smart Car Charger is great for charging phones. It charges devices up to 2 times to normal speeds of car chargers. But that’s not all it can do. By utilizing Bluetooth low-energy and a smartphone app, you can locate your car with your phone. The app shows you an arrow on a compass to direct you right to your car. It’s really nifty, and now we’re wondering why all car chargers don’t do this. [$29.99]

Car smelling a little funky? Rolling the windows down not making the smell any better? The Car Plug-in Air Purifier has a built-in ionizer to improve air quality, remove foul odors, and eliminate allergens. You might not think about the air quality in your car, but this little gadget can make a long trip much better. [$16.99]
