Energizer Change Your Clock Change Your Battery + Giveaway

Don’t forget this Sunday, November 3rd at 2am is the official “Fall Back” Daylight Saving Time. So before heading to bed, remember to set your clocks back one hour. Yippee an extra hour of sleep, (maybe) unless your kids wake you up!

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimates that 28 million homes are at risk because they either don’t have smoke alarms or their smoke alarms do not work, mostly due to dead or missing batteries. Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) have worked for decades to change those numbers with the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery^® program, and this fall they are continuing that work with firefighters across the country bringing the total number of batteries donated to 5 million.

For 26 years, the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program has been dedicated to sharing the important reminder to replace the batteries in your home’s smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when you change your clocks for daylight saving time. Together, Energizer and the IAFC are working to combat some alarming statistics:

Thirty-eight percent of fatal fire injuries occur in homes without working smoke alarms.^*
Twenty-four percent occur in homes in which at least one smoke alarm is present but fails to operate, frequently due to dead or missing batteries.^*
