I was probably thinking of the X5:

Then there might just possibly be the same circuitry in the X3 as well. I know there is a switch on the headphone jack to pause or start playback if you plug or unplug the headphones.

My 370Z stock stereo (POS Bose) can't handle the line out from the X5 which is slightly weaker than the line out from the X3 I believe. Some car stereos can't handle the Vrms of these devices line out and are designed to use the weaker headphone out from most smartphones.

Just a caution, if it sounds terrible then try the headphone out.

Theres others better than that if you just want an external battery for on the go. I use: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NGLTZQ/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=ianker-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399373&creativeASIN=B005NGLTZQ

If you're trying to boost your X3's life with something you might also keep in your pocket, maybe something like this?

Good call, I didn't even think about having to keep it in your pocket.

I might actually but one myself. I have a 9k lepow I like, but it's certainly not fitting in a pocket with a phone/dap

How long are you using your X3 without access to charging it? I used to work a job that had a five+ hour commute and would just charge it each or every other night and that was fine. 

 

[Saoshyant]

If anything I'd probably use it with my phone. I've never really had charge issues with the X3, but I use 3 different daps if you count the phone. Any kind of reasonable use of my phone kills it before the end of the day, though.

I just got a new HTC M8 on which I get a good full work day of heavy use. But I have the Anker for emergency on the metro or weekend vacation type scenarios.

The Moto X certainly doesn't get that kind of life, just moderate use guarantees I don't last the day. At least I don't often use it for music, quite thankful for my Fiios

Moto X, oufff marone isn't that quite old now? Time for an upgrade?

Nope, option restricted by my service. $40 unlimited everything using Sprint's network, but it's the only phone option.
