Win a $2000 Sponsorship to BlogHer 2010!

It started out like any other day. I was following the #BlogHer10 Twitter stream and wishing I could attend. However, I just couldn’t see paying all that money to spend just as much time in the air as I would be on the ground. Oh, well . . . maybe next year.

Then I opened my email and my Fairy Godmother appeared. Energizer, the world leader in battery technology, wanted to know if I was interested in a paid sponsorship to BlogHer 2010. I had to read the email several times before it actually set in . . . I was going to NYC! And better yet, I was finally going to meet all my wonderful blogging friends in person!

For those who have been following An Island Life, you know that I recently had the opportunity to review an Energizer Smart Charger and found it to be veryÂ invaluable. We all know know how many batteries our kids toys and baby equipment go through and with everyone going green these days, just throwing them out is not very smart . . . or economical.

The Energizer_Â® Recharge Smart^â„¢ Charger was developed in response to consumer interest in understanding more about the charging status of their batteries, so theyâ€™ll know if they will last for as long as needed. Energizer developed a charger that delivers on consumer demand by communicating information about rechargeable batteries and the charging process in three ways:

A countdown clock with large LCD numbers displays how much charging time remains
A fuel gauge communicates the current level of power in the batteries
A bad-battery detector alerts users if the batteries are no longer useful or if theyâ€™ve inserted a disposable battery by mistake

The ENERGY STARÂ®-certified EnergizerÂ® Recharge Smartâ„¢ Charger also features a slow charge rate, which extends the number of battery life cycles, and a bad battery alert that automatically indicates if the batteries are no longer useful or if a disposable battery has been inserted by mistake, also a feature that will help make consumers lives easier. Sixty-one percent of the parents surveyed believe an ideal battery charger would indicate when your battery is no longer worth charging.

No wonder it’s called a Smart Charger!

Personally, I love the Energizer Smart Charger. There were times when the batteries would run low on the kids electronic toys and making a run to the store just wasn’t possible . . . especially with a baby in the family. The Smart Charger has made my life easier and the kids’ life happier! It’s the only battery brand our family uses now and found that it really does outlast the competition.

WIN IT!
