Xbox 360 Play & Charge Kit Reviews
It's a little more expensive, but well worth it. In less than 6 months. Not to mention it charges the batteries much more quickly. Little did I know, it was actually draining them. I thought it was just continuing to charge the controller. neither of the batteries I got with the play and charge kits held a charge at all. A lot of times, after I turned off my console, the fans on the console would keep running if I had one of the play and charge kits plugged in.
I have been using this since then and have had no problems with it at all. When I first got my 360 in 2006, I picked up 2 of these, and used them often. The Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit is a much better investment. These are bad news and a waste of money. When I had the controllers plugged into the system with them, I noticed something.
Unfortunately, when I plugged it in, it did not work. I thought that just by plugging it in, I could use it like a regular remote control. I still have to get the wireless adapter to be able to use it on my computer.
The only negative hit on it is that I bought it with the understanding that when I plug it in, I can turn my controller from wireless to wired. This product works GREAT. Oh well.
The wire is only used to charge the remote. At least it recharges when it's attached to my computer. It recharges and lets me play without giving me lag or trouble.
Using this thought, I thought maybe I might be able to use my wireless remote to play my games on my computer too.
You already know what it is and how it works, so just buy it if you want it. Great product, works fine.
This package *includes a rechargeable battery*. Just keep that in mind when you're buying this. I ended up buying one too many rechargeable batteries from Amazon and had to return one because I didn't know this. Rather than get into the back and forth between the various reviewers on here, I wanted to add my quick note about something that was not clear at all to me when I was buying this from Amazon.
I have purchased two play and charge kits.
It was actually cheaper to buy a play and charge kit than just a battery alone.
When my nephew got his Xbox 360, I gave him a battery and the USB charge cable for his wireless controller, so that left me short a battery.
That way you'll always have a battery hot and ready to go when the gaming jones hits.
If you play a lot (like me) and have the money, go with the Quick Charge kit.
The play and charge kit works pretty well, it takes awhile to recharge a battery.
Later I decided to go with the Quick Charge kit.
So if your just looking for a rechargeable battery, buy this instead, save a few bucks, and get the charge cable for free.
The first I bought along with my Xbox 360 Pro.
