That's what I've had to do, but as a person who pays attention to utility bills, the 3 hour standby mode just irks me.

In other words, I prefer to turn things OFF-off, not sort-of-off, lol...  I turned off all other rest mode functions to minimize the power draw so that it's basically ONLY for charging the controller, but plugging in the controller after every play session is a bit excessive if you think about it.  It's not a big deal nor time consuming, but again, compared to the other two... >.> hahaha!

I see. 

You're talking to someone who leaves their PC on 24/7 with every possible electronic in stand-by or on chargers. So, quite a different mindset when it comes to all that.

I agree with you.  I will openly admit that the ps4 is my least favorite (but still beloved) console right now but it seems like he's grasping for reasons, now.  I mean my WiiU and Xbox One are NEVER off.  They're always downloading updates, games, etc. Suddenly standby mode on PS4 is the problem?!?

And I still don't get the AA vs long USB cable debate we just had.  XB1 is my favorite console but i wish ithad a rechargeable built in battery. To each his own, I guess.
