Advantages: Good value for money Disadvantages: Takes a long time to charge batteries
.
This charger was on offer. The normal RRP being £17.99. The charger came with four AA size Energizer 2500mAH batteries. These were the same size of battery that I required for my camera. My camera however only requires two batteries so I thought that this would be ideal as I could always have a spare set of fully chargedbatteries with me when I was out and about with my camera.

Advantages: Play for hours on end and just plug in and charge - good price Disadvantages: none

This not only meant I had to go and find some new batteries - and in some instances even meant going to the shop to buy some new ones, but it also messed up whatever I was playing particularly in online play as I would just lose and not be able to play. Normal batteries were beginning to rely annoy me so I decided to purchase a play and charge kit!
The xbox controller - being wireless eats up batteries like nothing and this kit is intended to be a simple solution to all those AA batteries.
What is it:
In this play and charge kit you get a battery pack and a USB charger wire. The battery pack is designed to fit perfectly into ...
