I'm very happy with my Anker battery. I'm certain it's the same one you have Kevin. The button on the side near the top is the only control on the batttery. I would need to use a light detector app to tell if the led flashlight was on or off. There isn't any way to tell how much charge is in the battery. I plug it in every month or so to keep it full and ready. I also have a smaller lipstick sized Anker battery for those times when you don't need a whole bag of accessories and just want your phone.
