'''Energizer''' is the [[Monkey Sub (BTD6)|Monkey Sub]]'s path 1 tier 5 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. This upgrade allows Monkey Sub to grant a buff to all towers on screen which reduces their [[Ability Cooldown|ability cooldowns]] by 20%. For water-based towers within its range, this buff reduces ability cooldowns by 40% instead of 20%. Heroes within its range gain +50% [[Hero#Experience|XP]] from the ends of rounds and sacrifices (not from purchasing levels).

In other game modes, Energizer's main use is allowing slower-leveling [[Hero]]es reach higher levels before Round 100. The Heroes that benefit the most are {{BTD6|Admiral Brickell}}, {{BTD6|Psi}}, {{BTD6|Captain Churchill}}, and {{BTD6|Sauda}}. In particular, Admiral Brickell's powerful Naval Tactics and Mega Mines abilities have their cooldowns nearly halved, making her synergize really well with Energizer. The ability cooldown reduction to towers is a good bonus, but it is not sufficient on its own to justify using Energizer outside of Freeplay and Boss Bloon battles. 5-0-1 is the preferred crosspath, as the extra pierce and Lead popping power and bonus from 5-2-0 is not favorable and 5-0-1's attack speed allows for better cleanup of {{BTD6|Super Ceramic Bloon}}s.
