Energizer announces new Rechargeable range of batteries

Recharge your batteries and power up your pocket!

Just when you get to grips with the functions and settings of your new camera, you realise you need to replace the batteries. Energizer’s innovative new Rechargeable range is the economical energy solution to satisfy any budding or professional photographer’s needs.

With Energizer’s new range, charge time takes as little as two hours and the batteries have been proven to last up to four times longer in digital cameras than standard alkaline batteries. With so much power they are the ideal accessory to have fully charged in your photographer’s kit bag – allowing you to capture those spontaneous moments!

Set to revolutionise the rechargeable market, these compact, stylish and light-weight chargers are the perfect portable solution for photographers who need their power on the go.

Aside from cameras alone, the UK is fast becoming a nation of gadget lovers with each household owning an average of 29 battery powered devices. Whether it’s MP3 players, remote controls, toys, or computer games, people have come to expect reliable and instant power with them where ever they go and the cost of continuously replacing batteries soon adds up.

So taking into account the number of batteries required to keep us fully charged, Energizer think it’s time for people to recharge their batteries and power up their pockets.

The table below shows how much money could be saved over time by investing in rechargeable batteries.
