Microsoft Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack

...built into the controller. So microsoft came up with the idea of... NUCLEAR POWER CONTROLLERS. But then they probably realised this would be to dangerous and powerful so they just settled for double "A" batterys. : ) The batterys will last for around 12 - 20 continuous hours depending on the type you use, but changing batterys almost every day gets very annoying, and expensive. If you have rechargable batterys you will save money instead of always ...
...Microsoft then came up with the idea of the battery pack. On a full charge it will last around 24 hours of gaming and can be on charge while in use! It will add a small amound of extra weight to the controller but not so that you would notice. This is all good! you can now have a charging pack so you no longer need to buy batterys or wait for them to charge! But wait... £20? EACH? if you have 4 controllers that amounts to £80!!! They are worth having ...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack

Here it is, the solution to the hassle of constantly swapping out batteries from the xbox 360 controller's battery pack. This product will definitely save you money as you'll be spending much less on AA batteries especially if you play your 360 a lot. This battery pack however is absolutely useless without the recharging chord or recharging dock. The rechargeable battery pack is very convenient but if you're playing with the controller while it's ...
...hours which is not necessarily a bad thing. Also I feel the price for this product is a little steep but I guess it does save you money in the long run. The batteries do last for a long time and I rarely recharge my batteries. This product is a must buy for hardcore 360 owners but for the casual gamer who only plays every once in a while could spend his/her money on something else ...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack

For XBox 360 owners who already own a PLAY AND CHARGE kit for their system (rechargeable battery and USB charger), then this battery is perfect for charging an additional wireless controller. As opposed to using rechargeable batteries and having the expense of replacing these every so often, one of these can be acquired for about £10. When charged using the aforementioned USB charger, you will get around 25 hours of gameplay before it requires another ...
...be functional if you do not own or have not before purchased the play and charge kit. If you currently use wireless controllers and charge them using standard batteries, you will first need to buy the play and charge kit which contains one battery, then one of these batteries for each additional controller requiring it! The batteries are small, very durable and slot into the back of the controller with ease. ...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack

i agree completely with the review above as it is an essential piece of equipment for the xbox gamer. Personally i used to find it annoying when i had to search around the house stealing baterries out of anything i could find but now with this battery pack i only need to charge it around every 25-30 hours of using it. It is cheap so i am saving money on normal batteries. The batteries are a high-performance NiMH rechargeable battery cell. i would ...
...even if they use it at infrequent times as it means you can play whenever you want. it is easy to charge although if you have not bought the additional charger it can be annoying as you have to charge it through the usb on the xbox so i advise you to get 2 of these so you can use one and charge the other. This is the best option. ...
