Great deal! Maybe with all the money you saved, you can buy more drinks?

USB? Really? Hope you got an extra Apple USB->AC power adapter lying around. If the quality is as bad as the cheapo one I bought last year, the "high capacity" batteries will be useless after the first couple weeks. I thought my Wii was broken when I couldn't get either controller to work. Turns out it was just the incredibly crappy batteries.

My experience is identical to pyabo's. This charger kit is one of the absolute worst video game accessories I have ever purchased. Not only did the batteries go bad VERY shortly after purchase, but the charger itself started malfunctioning and wouldn't charge the batteries unless they were in the absolute perfect position, which is impossible to do for both batteries at the same time. All that, and the damn cable is, like, 4-6 inches long, making the whole process ridiculously more cumbersome.

I have one of these too and they're...okay. To charge, I've found they need to be sitting at a really specific angle, but all in all it's better than double A batteries. Honestly, I'd spring for a better one though. The first one I bought broke after a week and I had to get them to ship a replacement.

If you want a wiimote charger, go with Nyko. I bought the quad remote charger and it's an excellent product, although a bit more pricey.

Ditto to the above comments, batteries wouldn't hold a charge after only a few recharges. Whole unit is happily sitting in a landfill somewhere now.

Another ditto on the previous comments. Got one of these as a gift and it died very quickly. Get some nice rechargeable AA batteries and use them. They'll last longer, and you can use them in other stuff if you need to!

Ditto me too. After the batteries stopped charging after only a few weeks, I ditched it and got the Nyko kit from Costco. One hint if you get the Nyko and have a black controller. You need to cut a little circle out of the back so the sensor can see the controller is there, so it will charge.

Unfortunately, I agree with all of the negative comments. I got my rechargeable pack at Bed Bath and Beyond, and it never maintained a charge for more than two hours, even when new. Rechargeable AA batteries is the way to go.

id suggest being careful with anything with rechargeable wiimotes. Got a charging station similar to this one for my wiimotes and it burned out the wiimote itself.

if anything get rechargeable batteries that are charge outside of the wiimote...

CHEAP!! I bought one not that long ago and it half works...I have to play with the remotes on the charger in order for them to charge...but for the price, you cant complain too much. You get what you pay for!

I can totally identify with the comment about hurling the remote through the flatscreen playing Wii bowling. I am honest enough (& embarassed) to admit that I did exactly that. Better me than one of the kids. Needless to say, I now require wrist strap use even if you're on Wii shopping.

+1 to what a lot of people said (I have one):

-USB, so you need an adapter to plug it in
-USB Cord is 4" or less
-Need to have batteries plugged into the Wiimotes to charge
-Need to get Wiimotes sitting PERFECTLY to charge
-Charge dies after 2 hours or less
-Batteries don't stay in perfectly

and one which I didn't see mentioned:

-The charger is bloody loud!

All that said, I still use it, but you get what you pay for.

Wow, crazy amount of bad comments. I bought this kit when we got our Wii (around Christmas) and it has not given me one problem. It powers right off of the Wii usb ports and just sits there charging batteries. My batteries have been fine and seem to last just fine. I am not a power gamer, but a couple of hours of Mario and I still have plenty of juice left. My only issue is that you have to take the wrist strap off each time you charge it or it does not make good contact with the charge contacts.

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
