Hey question for you guys...I just bought a Nyko charger. It's an awsome product but my question is, when the green light comes on to let you know you wiimote is fully charged, can I let it sit there for a while...will the battery overcharge? will it leak? Would be nice when the green light comes on the charger would stop...catching my drift??

I have a question and I am asking for help from an electronics person. I know the Wii is based mostly off of USB style of controller. Couldn’t you cut the wire off a nunchuck keeping the part that plugs into the Wii remote. Then feed power through to the battery that way? Make it go to selective pegs in its connection to the Wii remote and use it recharge the battery that way? So it would be only used as a charger no longer as a nunchuck? I know the Wii remote is DC current and it feeds current to the nunchuck, and then the remote gets a message back. So couldn’t you just change that message into power, and use that to recharge the remotes, so you don’t need to change the backing of the remote in one of the new chargers coming out these days? I did a lot of this crap with the original Xbox, but I am unsure about how the Wii works exactly and would like someone’s help/opinion. Then you could simply buy a USB charger and trade the end of the USB charger for the nunchuck insert to the Wii remote and it would charge it?

My one fear is what I did to a few Xboxes in my time, was over load it and fry the poor thing. Cause at the moment this stuff is still expensive and some what hard to come by. Also for some things with the Xbox I would have to go in and connect two previously unconnected points with a wire to get the power to flow right. Any help or any suggestion would be great, just PM me or email me or simply respond. Thank you

Ya...I would just think it would be like normal batteries in chargers....they leak when you leave em in. I'll try, if they are leaking I'll be on your case Retman heheheh, and could you tell me if I have to drain my batteries before I charge?

thanks man
