<33 Wii Charge Station

[The Plague]

So, last week I went on gamestop's site to check out the Wii accessories..I saw the charge station, which charges 2 remotes at the same time, or you can play with one while charging the other..

It cost $30 and I was willing to pay that much for endless use of the Wiimote without ever replacing its batteries again..

Basically, it comes with

- The main component, the charge station with LED lights to alert you when the Wiimotes are done charging
- 2 battery packs designed to fit in the Wiimote perfectly
- 2 battery covers with rubberized exterior for improved grip

Ah, both Wiimotes had 1 bar of battery life on them, so I left them charging..Green light = charing, blue light = done...However, this was at my bedtime..Woke up the next morning, both charged..

Ahh, full battery = Lots of play time ^^

I really do recommend this to anybody that doesn't want to spend the $5 they're required to spend for 2 batteries...Battery prices are ridiculous these days.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll be picking up a charge station soon, hopefully.

 

[My god the Wii owns...]

Very...helpful?

I might buy the charger. Sounds like it's worth it.

the power goes through your wii's USB port doesnt it?

You can't get rechargable batteries for the Wii, it uses alcholi batteries which u cant get in rechargable format, so your only option is a charge station, there great, 3 hours and my wii remote was full.

Ummm WTF?

I cannot believe you actually just said that, like, even if you were misinformed you still wouldn't be stupid enough to believe that.

Simple logic would tell you otherwise.

I mean. I cannot believe it.

My god. Are your parents brother and sister?

To answer all your questions

- I'm not a female, but i dunno how else to express my strong feelings for my charge station.. LOL

- No, it doesn't go through the USB thingie..Its one of the outlet thingies that you plug in the wall...Charge time for 2 remotes is like 3-4 hours and for one remote it took me like 1 hour, hour and a half..

- I'm glad im not the only one suffering from battery prices! lol

Huh, I didn't know that. I guess that means that I've not been playing my Wii for the past 4 months with rechargable batteries I bought from Walmart. I guess that means I haven't been taking those drained batteries and putting them in my 8 cell recharger so I can use them again and again.

BTW: I use NiMH 2500mAH batteries. For anyone who couldn't see through my sarcasm, they work fine.
