Christmas is coming – are you all stocked up on batteries yet?  Now is as good a time as any to avoid those sad pouty faces on Christmas morning when you realize the plethora of toys revealed in a sea of festive wrapping paper won’t do what they’re supposed to do until they’re loaded up and powered up.

This holiday season, Duracell will be giving back by making a donation of up to 1 million batteries to Toys for Tots for every eligible pack of batteries purchased. How do you plan to give back this holiday season?

About the Party:

From powering flashlights in thunderstorms and smoke detectors in our ceilings, to making sure our children stay entertained on long car rides, longer-life batteries acts as unsung heroes in our daily lives. Duracell has recently introduced a breakthrough battery to help our electronics keep pace with our busy lifestyles.

Duracell Quantum, the world’s most advanced alkaline battery and recognizable by its distinct red color, features longer lasting power than any other battery on the market. With a Hi-Density Core that allows for more power storage, the Duracell Quantum also features PowerCheck technology that allows us to see on the battery itself the amount of life remaining. With DURALOCK Power Preserve technology that can lock in power in storage for up to 10 years, Duracell Quantum batteries can efficiently deliver power to both high-drain and low-drain devices.

This holiday season, Duracell will be giving back by making a donation of up to 1 million batteries to Toys for Tots for every eligible pack of batteries purchased. How do you plan to give back this holiday season? Join the conversation this Tuesday, December 3, 2013 from 1 – 2 PM ET to chat more!
