Wii charge & dock station with rechargeable batteries
This product is a must have. seriously. you will save so much on batteries. my son was going thru about 8 AA's a week just on Wiimotes. I definitely recommend this product :-)
Not practical.
This does not fit the Wii controllers if you have motion control. Sent it back. I do love the Wii itself, however.
Cleans Up Clutter
This is a nice item to help keep your Wii items neatly stored. The only problem is that it won't hold the controllers if the skins are on them so it's pointless if you have the skins. It is also nice to have the ability to slide the batteries (by themselves) into the controller slots for charging.
Saves Space, Looks and Works Great
This does a great job of keeping our Wii console and two remotes/nunchucks together in one spot, looking neat and tidy, and comes with the bonus of being a rechargeable dock for the remote batteries.
The remotes won't fit in the slots if you keep the clear skins on them that they came with, so we purchased two thinner skins and they fit perfectly in the dock. However, even though the remotes do fit in their slots with the thinner skins and also their wrist straps on, the batteries still can't charge with any skins or wrist straps on. So when the remote batteries go dead, we just use the option of charging the batteries alone in the dock slots. When they are fully charged we turn the charging button off and return the remotes to their dock slots (skins, wrist straps and all). It is very handy to have a place to store them in between chargings.
Also the nunchucks fit into their slots great, even with a skin on (there is an extra space for the cord to run through).
I also like how the Wii console cord plugs into the back of the stand, which plugs into the console, thereby eliminating something else to plug in. Overall, four stars!
Go ahead and buy it. A good dock station for your Wii.
I have had this installed and running for a couple months now. We have several of our friends with different models and I researched their chargers before buying this one. This does not have the neon light effects and all the other glitter, but it also is half the cost of what they paid. It was easy to install and charges remotes with batteries installed or just the batteries. Note that not all batteries will fit and charge in this. That was my first mistake. I only can use it to charge the batteries it came with as the other batteries I have wouldn't fit. I ended up buying a separate charging station to charge these batteries. Make sure your batteries are the same brand as the charger. The real good reason to buy this online from Amazon is they have internet returns down to a science. I buy 98% of all my online merchandise on Amazon.com.
