What is Master Distributor?

Just in case you aren't sure what exactly we do here at Batteries, Incorporated, let us explain what a Master Distributor is so ultimately we can help you better.
There are four Master Distributors for Duracell Industrial products in the United States. Batteries, Inc. is the Master Distributor for the east coast. A Master Distributor has to have the capabilities to service all types of customers. Typically the Master Distributor sells Duracell products to smaller distributors. The reason for this is that the master distributor can ship and deliver the products sooner than the Duracell warehouse. Over the years, Duracell has raised their minimum annual purchase qualification to $500K. Basically, the bottom line is that Duracell would rather have master distributors to handle smaller customers.
Batteries, Inc. as the master distributor for Duracell in the east, stocks the full line of Duracell batteries, flashlights, and portable power products. We are also able to ship orders minutes after they are received. Batteries, Inc. has a 98% fill rate and ships all orders the same day they are received. We are also able to handle technical questions, pricing inquires, and other special requests on the fly.
There are many Duracell distributors on the internet, and many buy from us. Why not come directly to the source for lower pricing, on-time delivery, and friendly customer service? We will be waiting for your call.

Batteries, Inc. Gives Back

Times are still tough in today's economy, and we all know a little help goes a long way. Since 1983, the Marlboro Food Bank, located at Trinity Episcopal Church, has been a joint ministry of a group in Upper Marlboro churches. Once a month they choose one weekend where they distribute pre-dominantly food to their clients in need. With the help and support of other local businesses, they have been able to donate other items.
Batteries, Inc. has donated over 7,000 AA and AAA batteries this year alone. Especially with the holidays coming up, batteries to power up your childrens toys or other electronics in the house, will be an added holiday gift.
Any item that can be donated makes a big difference. People in our local community will appreciate any help given. It may be early but get in that 'holiday-giving' spirit and help our neighbors out.

Duracell Power Charger

We all have made the mistake of leaving our cell phone charger behind plugged into a wall. Whether it was at a hotel, work, or you just can't find it, a dead cell phone is useless. On top of that finding time to go to the store and spending the unnecesessary extra $30 is not convenient for anybody these days. Then there is the scenrio when your iPod is dead and you stuck without good music on the ride home or the motivating music to get you through that evening workout.

Duracell has come out with a new product that is a reliable solution where you do not have to worry about forgetting your charger or your device dying on you. The new Powerhouse Charger can charger up to two devices at once. This small device is the most powerful of the three portable chargers and is easy to carry around.

The device can charge the iPhone, iPod Nano, iPod Classic, Blackberry phones, Motorola phones, and devices with a mini USB port (certain cameras).

Things you might want to know about the charger:

*Has 2000 mAh
*Has a USB port and a swinging mini-USB arm
*Up to 60 hours of backup power

So if you are looking for a good birthday present, Christmas present, this is it. Hurry and put your order in because they are clearing shelves fast!

Batteries Inc price for the Duracell Power Charger: $36.99
