i have a huge charger that can charge 8 batteries at a time plus 12 batteries, i paid £10 for them about 2 years ago, it was well worth it.


I'll pay you $10.01 for it

At the moment Nyko Charge Station for two of my remotes and normal old batteries for the other one.

Now, why I despise the Nyko Charge Station:

  1. It doesn't work worth a damn.  It says my remotes are fully powered but they aren't.
  2. The rubber backing I have to put on the back of the WiiMotes makes them not fit into the Wii Zapper and the Wii Wheel.
  3. They're a pain to get set into the charge station.  Even after you get the hang of it it's still not exactly easy.

Luckily I already have the Wii Energizer 2x Induction Charge Station preordered and should be here next week. 

Now I can power my two main remotes with energizer batteries and also have rechargeable batteries in my other remote and balance board as well and not have to worry about batteries anymore.^^

Energizer Rechargeable batteries. We have 6 batteries so we always have 4 to use in either our 2 wiimotes or 360 controllers and 2 in the charger. Pretty damn good investment if you ask me.

Exactly the same.

Would you post again in this thread or PM me after you get your new Charge Station?

It looks pretty good but I'd really like a firsthand review.

The Nyko works well. You can remove the backing to put the remote in the Zapper or the Wii Wheel. It's really that easy. Also, I don't see how it would be hard to place a remote in it.
