I recommend you to spend $50 on a good AA / AAA recharger instead. You will be able to charge and recondition all AA and AAA batteries in your home. A good charger will keep your batteries healthier and they will hold more power. In the long run you will be saving money.

Seconded.... I am trying to use recharchables for my stuff now, I still have some standard batteries on hold if I forget to charge the ones I use in the Wii remote... and I still use standard for my tv remote (only because I sellotaped them in and they haven't run out yet)

 

 

I actually already have a charger and recharable batteries. 

The reason I was looking at this is because it provides a clean place to store the Wii-Motes and gaurantees that every time I use the Wii it will have a fresh charge (thats the advantage of Li-Ion batteries).  Call me lazy but I get annoyed when I'm in the middle of a game and the "dead batteries" screen pops up and I have to take out the dead batteries...go to the charger...swap batteries...go put the batteries back in...sync up the remote...and then start playing again.  It just disrupts the whole flow (again I know I'm picky).

@supermario128,

So you think I should pay more than double for the same thing?  Uhm../pass  This is the charger AND 2 Li-Ion batteries, and it recharges two Wii-Motes at once. Actually I think it might actually be the Nyko recharger since it comes up in their search with just "Nyko Wii".

@eneloop suggestions,

Is there an advantage beyond the reduced self-discharge?  If not I don't really see the point in replacing my existing batteries with these, my problem isn't a self-discharge problem.

@everyone,

So nobody thinks this is a good deal?
