 Excellant value December 23, 2008
R. Yocum
I was looking for an easier way to charge my 360 controlers, but I got so much more than I paid for. Just the fact that the base come with 2 batteries makes it worth it. Also, each chargeing station glows with a bright red LED when the battery is charging and a bright green LED when its done. You have to leave the battery in the 360 during the charge, or the contacts wont hold down, but its not a big deal.
Best charger out there December 9, 2008
D. Hernandez
I bought this charger from Amazon, when I opened I was surprised with the quality that I saw from the begging.
I am a casual gamer and don't use my controller to the limit, and I was getting good times with AA batteries. But I wanted rechargeable batteries. And this was the best option out there.
The base have a great design (your controller always finish in the right position when you drop it), the batteries fit like normal ones in the controller, the charge time is good and it keeps your controller in a good place.
PROs
Price - Maybe the best value of the market
2 Batteries included
Your controllers charge when you are not using them
25 hours of battery life (I am getting 30+)
Led indicators of the charge
Negative
The led are too bright, is like a flashlight. They will turn off when the charge is finished, but if you have the charger in your room, like me, it will bother you.
I recommend this charger to everyone
TIP: I normally play for 3 or 4 hours, and put the controller back in the charger. If you are like me, once a month, disconnect the charge base and play until the batteries are fully discharged. this will be helpful for your batteries life.
Always charged and easy to find! November 30, 2008
Michael J. Pope (IRAQ)
This thing is awesome just as expected. I just wish I could buy more battery packs for it. My controllers batteries never die and are always right where I left them no more lost controllers.
Much nicer than rechargeable AA's November 3, 2008
J. Williamson (Indiana, USA)
I have used this charge base for over a month now and I am extremely pleased. Fast charging time, just as it states in the product description. They last longer than my longest gaming sessions go, which can be between 6 and 7 hours. Great value for the price. Also makes your gaming area look more sophisticated as the controllers are docked with the charging lights on.
 Not compatible with other batteries October 10, 2008
L. Nguyen (CA USA)
7 out of 10 found this review helpful
It's a total let-down when I received this charger. It is not compatible with other Xbox 360 batteries that we have because this charger is custom made for their batteries with 3 exposed pads on the back to charge. Without their custom made batteries, this charger is useless. Microsoft Quick Charge or Tekno InCharge ($4 more) can charge Nyko batteries but Nyko charger cannot charge Microsoft or other compatible batteries. Why no one ever raise this issue at the 1st place is beyond me.
