Take a moment and think about everything in your home that requires a battery and/or a charger.
You can probably list 10 items in as many seconds… right!
And since you all know how much I hate clutter {especially cord clutter} I’m always on the look out for space-saving, cord-organizing products that serve more than one purpose.
I recently came across Energizer’s new Universal USB chargers and knew I had to offer them as a giveaway because they are everything I just mentioned above… and more!
Not only are they super compact and portable, they have a flexible “pouch” that stores the cord, they are compatible with multiple devices, and they offer the ability to charge those devices from a wall, a car, and even a computer!
Take your pick.
I love that there is one set of chargers with a micro USB cable (see left image below) and one set of chargers with an Apple certified dock connector (see right image below).
The wall chargers offers a light that turns off when the item is fully charge, and the plug folds up for even easier storage.
The car chargers offer a FindMe light so you can easily see where to plug your device in… even in a dark car. Yes, they truly have thought of everything!
Dave and I each have a car charger in our car, and even though we each already have a wall charger for our phones, Dave uses the Energizer wall charger at school… so we never have to worry about being without a charger. Ever!
When we travel, we only take the Energizer USB Car Charger because it works with both of our phones and we can use it in the car or plug the USB end directly into our computer.
Talk about simple and organized 🙂

Today, two lucky readers will win an Energizer Universal USB wall charger OR USB car charger with either the micro USB end of the Apple dock end.

Love this solution for cords! Like you on FB. Thanks for the giveaway. Count me in!
Eve says
I recently took a long bus trip and bought a battery/charger solely for the purpose of charging most of the electronics I took with me. What a disappointment it was! My phone wouldn’t charge on it (no idea why, it just wouldn’t) and I wound up borrowing my son’s charger instead. The whole idea was to prevent carrying multiple charging cables, decreasing space needed in my luggage. Something like this (and how cool that it also works in a car!) would have been so much better!
Margo says
My husband is my biggest frustration. He takes all the cords and zip ties them together. It works for a while until you need to get one out. It is impossible to find the one you want without taking the whole thing apart.

I can’t stand that you have to fish though everything to find the one you want.
LorieR says
Traveling with chargers is crazy. One charger for every electronic device x 4 people = an extra bag to pack!
Darlene says
I hate cord clutter too, and it doesn’t help when cat decides to get tangled up in them.

Amy Schaffer says
I hate when there are several cords and one accidentally gets pulled out. Them you have to systematically figure out what goes where. HELP, please!!! ๐
Leonard says
Cords automatically light to tie the knot.

Dana says
I really dislike when a cord gets a knot it in. How does that happen?!
Emily S. says
My biggest frustration is with how unattractive cord clutter is!
Tracey says
Everything has its own cord and it would be nice to have fewer cords. I would love to have this!
Alicia says
Of course I like you on Facebook already.
Alicia says
I can’t stand that with each phone upgrade the size of the charger port on the phone is different than the last phone. So you have tons of cords and they don’t fit anything that currently works.
kathy w says
My biggest problem is have a ton of cords and no idea what they go to.
Stacy says
My cord clutter, is that my husband bunches them all up and shoves them in a basket, never cleans them out and then the kids leave the empty chargers plugged in after their stuff charges!!! Drives me batty.
Kathi says
I “lilked” you on FB.
Kathi says
Our biggest cord challenge is on the desk in our kitchen – not only does it have all the computer cord, it has the home phone cord as well as the chargers for our phones and blue tooth.
Sometimes I charge my iPad there as well.
Rebecca says
I have a hard time keeping up with which cord goes with what. Then they get tangled.
Thanks
Rebecca

MaryBeth says
I hate the unsightly tangle of wires and get frustrated when trying to follow the cord to reach the plug-in part. ARGH!
