THE STORY BEHIND BATEROO

The inventor of Batteroo, Frankie Roohparvar and his brother Bob founded the company with a simple goal in mind- to create a line of products that make batteries last longer, enabling their consumers to save money and reduce their own hazardous waste.

The idea for Batteroo began several years ago when Frankie’s children were young and going through batteries at an alarmingly fast rate. He took a closer look and discovered that most of the batteries in his children’s toys were still full of juice even though the batteries no longer worked. A fresh disposable battery starts with approximately 1.5 volts but he discovered that after they stopped working, the “dead” batteries still had 1.1 to 1.3 volts left in them, a good chunk of the batteries’ energy going to waste. There must be a way to tap into all that unused energy! Frankie got together with his brother Bob, a power management industry veteran, and Batteroo was born!
