Dont plug them in after 20-30 minutes of use.wait until they are dead and you will get a very long life.I do recommend buying a charging station so you can always have a couple of spare batteries charging.this will avoid the frustration of having a dead battery when you really need to GAME.Great price and shipping at AMAZON.cant complain. I have taught the kids to wait for the battery to completely die out before recharging it.that is what makes the difference. Why bother buying batteries on a regular basis when you can re-charge this one and use it for a LONG time. Regular batteries hurt the environment.and in all will cost you a LOT more then this re-chargeable battery over time.We have had these in all of our XBox controllers forever and they dont seem to be losing charge at all.
This work best with recharge station. A must have for xbox 360 owner. Enough to play couple hours a date, quick recharge.
ha ha. Not much I can say other than, these batteries are long lasting. The reason why I bought these black ones is because every one of my neighbors have white controllers with white batteries, they would come home and play with my kids, next think I know, my batteries are gone, at least now I can tell who took them.
I have recently upgraded to an Elite console (for the reasons mentioned in a separate review of that system) and sold the last of my 20G models. If you have children and they use your console, I definitely suggest having a spare battery charged at all times. I suggest that you purchase two. I decided to go ahead and purchase this system because I wanted to have a battery system dedicated just for the Xbox. Not as much as a pair of regular alkaline AAs. I sold the two white rechargeable batteries with the white console to make the package more attractive to the buyer.
The last thing you want is for your child to pester you to drive to the store for some fresh, disposable batteries. This rechargeable battery is a nice item to have for your console, but it is not a necessity. This is my third rechargeable battery for an XBox 360 system. How much charge will this battery pack hold.
And then end up with no batteries for my controller when I really want to play a game. I have taken batteries from my console's controller in the past and move them to a portable audio player, for example. If you factor in the cost of the Quick Charger (which is still white, by the way), along with the price of this pack, you can see that it is more than the price of a pair of rechargeable AAs and a charger. You see, such events rarely happen at a time that is convenient for you.
This product will only work for your Xbox, so you are assured of always having a fresh pack available. Like most people, I have a lot of electronic items that use size AA batteries. Basically, with this product, you are paying for convenience. The first two were white, to match my 20G premium console.
But more than a pair of rechargeable NiMH AAs. I have been known to take a set of batteries from one device and use it in another device just to avoid having to run to the store. My original intention was to simply buy a pair of regular AA rechargeable batteries and a charger. And they almost always use up their batteries at the most inconvenient of times.
I bought the Xbox 360 Quick Charge Kit which comes with a rechargeable battery and an extra rechargeable battery because i was tired of buying batteries :P.Its a must for every xbox 360 owner, also remember to get the quick charge kit.
