Guest says Useful, but should've left room for the straps!

The Wii 4x Quad Charge Station is perhaps the most useful and stylish charging station for anyone with 4 Wiimotes. It comes in a nice round base, has indicators for charge levels and even has a Wii-style, blue LED-based light ring. It may seem cheesy but beyond being a bit of an unnecessary waste of energy, it looks quite slick. My only complaint about the charge station is that the slots for the Wiimotes don't really support you having a strap attached to each Wiimote; with some wiggling effort you may be able to get them to charge without taking the strap off, but whichever route you take, it's more hassle than it should be.

OK, so I have a wii with 2 controllers with rechargeable batteries - when one of my batteries died I searched for a replacement online and found this great product with 4 rechargeable batteries for the price of one at the store plus a charger - great! I should have read more carefully - it says Wii REMOTE Charge Station not Wii Battery Charge Station. I didn't realize is that you cannot use the charger unless it is in a wii remote. I thought I could just charge the extra batteries and have them ready at my disposal - but I can't do that unless I buy two more remotes - or use my current charger and charge 2 batteries - and then switch them out. Anyway you put it - it's a great value!

comes with all four batteries, the battery covers have a nice grip to them an let the kids know which one is which. We don't use the skin covers for the remotes since we have the wrist strap and the grips on these covers. they will charge with the wrist straps on. The unit has blue lights when charging and they turn green when they are full charged. Just pick up and go. Great, and the price is right.
