Common Sense Reviews

Let me paint you a scene that up until very recently was very common in my home.  It’s the start of a family event and I pull out the digital camera to snap some pictures of the family.  Only to have the camera die after 2 minutes because the batteries are dead.  Unfortunately, by the time the batteries are recharged the party will be over and I have no pictures to show for it.

Well, thanks to my friend Colleen, this is not the case anymore.  Thanks to Colleen, or Classy Mommy as you may now her, and Energizer I was able to check out Energizer’s 15 Minute battery charger.  Words cannot describe my appreciation.  This 15 minute charger WILL charge your rechargeable batteries in 15 minutes.  And when you have little ones and are ready to capture their silly moments, 15 minutes is about all the time you can spare waiting for batteries to recharge.

The best part perhaps is that this charger comes with a car plug in adapter.  This has been so helpful as well because there have been times that we are headed out the door, grab the camera and find out that the batteries are dead.  An average car trip (15-20 mins) and by the time we get to our destination the batteries are ready to be used.  If you have little children like I do and take car trips often you know how much of a godsend it is to be able to recharge batteries in the car quickly.  No more whines about the electronic toy dying and no replacement batteries available.

Just a word of caution that due to the speed at which this charger works, your batteries will be hot at the time the charge is complete.  Follow the manufacturer instructions and allow for cooling time before handling them.  Thanks Colleen and Energizer for the opportunity to review this lifesaver!
