so i just got this charger and it works great but...
it makes a crazy clicking sound when it is charging.
it is louder than the frig,or my HTPC.
I hope i is just a bad unit because i cant live with this clatter in my living room.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for writing in. I saw your video and the clicking sound sounds strange indeed. Can you please email me as well (at [e-mail]) so that I can follow-through with your support request and ensure that you get a replacement asap.

Stay in touch.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great but..., June 30, 2011

This review is from: Vertical Induction Charger for 3 PS3 Controllers (Accessory)

I love this charger. It's so easy to use and it works great. Like others have said it does do a clicking sound, but either it's faded over time or I got so used to it that I don't even notice it anymore. I've had the device for about 2 months now, but now I have a problem with it that I need to figure out.

My third charging section had actually MELTED the controller clip and it stopped functioning. I'm a little worried about using it now (the other two sections that is) as I wonder if the thing is a fire hazard or not...

This charger burned and melted my controller. I immediately contacted the company and, weeks later, got a response asking me to send back the product. I sent it back a month ago and have heard nothing in response, nor received a replacement, refund, or any sort of compensation or communication since. I do NOT recommend this company or its products and warn any and all from purchasing anything from CTA.
