Today Duracell, The Trusted Battery Power of the NFL, kicks off its new campaign giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at the criticality of reliable power on game day through interactive stadium tours and new commercials.

“Even we were surprised to learn how many battery operated devices are used by the NFL,” said Jeff Jarrett, marketing director for Duracell. “We are proud that the NFL trusts Duracell Quantum to power those critical devices, so their teams can focus on the play at hand.”

More than 650 Duracell Quantum batteries are used in every game to power critical devices including the Bose® sideline headset for the NFL, as well as on-field helmet communications and wireless/radio belt packs. Whether it’s coach-to-coach or coach-to-player communication, Duracell Quantum lasts up to 35% longer vs. next leading competitive brand* and is trusted by the NFL when the game is on the line.

EXCLUSIVE METLIFE AND LEVI’S STADIUM TOURS

Duracell will give media an insider’s look at how Duracell Quantum batteries power game day: from the national anthem to the game-winning play during exclusive tours of MetLife Stadium on August 27th and Levi’s Stadium on September 22nd. In partnership with All-Pro middle linebackers, Jon Beason of the New York Giants and Patrick Willis of the San Francisco 49ers, attendees will experience an interactive behind-the-scenes tour of the stadium highlighting touch points where Duracell Quantum affects the game. Consumers can see info graphic, photos, and videos from the day on Duracell’s Facebook page (http://www.Facebook.com/Duracell) or Twitter page (http://www.Twitter.com/Duracell).

POWER BEHIND THE GAME SPOTS

Duracell released two commercials for the 2014 NFL season featuring Seattle Seahawks Russell Wilson and San Francisco 49ers Patrick Willis. The :30 spots showcase a hypothetical game-determining play powered by Duracell between the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers. A change in play call through the coach-to-player communication device sets a critical play into motion. One commercial is shot from the offensive and the other from the defensive perspective, allowing viewers to experience the decisive moment from both the players’ point of view. Consumers can see the commercials on Duracell’s YouTube page (http://www.Youtube.com/Duracell).
