Like most of you at first, I was thrilled to get a charging station for such a good price. Unfortunately, now I know why. I charged the batteries fully for over 12 hours (as required) out of the box, and initially I got about a week's worth of play from each remote. However since then, the battery life has been awful. More often than not, when I pick up a remote to play I find it's dead... even after fully charging it a few days prior. When there IS enough power to play, it only lasts for a few hours.

I would strongly recommend spending the extra money and getting a quality, name-band charger. I most certainly will as soon as I get around to replacing this P.O.S.

I am very pleased with my purchase of this product. I bought it before we even bought our Wii as we heard that the batteries get drained pretty quickly in the Wii remotes. This product comes with (two) rechargeable battery packs that fit into the Wii remotes. You just set your remote into the cradle (with the rubber skin removed) and the light below it will turn red indicating that it is charging..then once fully charged, the light will turn a bright blue. And I do mean BRIGHT! We no longer require the use of a nightlight in our living room due to the glow from the charger!
The cord actually plugs into the USB port located in the back of the Wii console to charge instead of a AC plug.
All in all, this product is great! A LOT cheaper than the Energizer ones that run about $35. A MUST HAVE for any Wii owner!

I purchased this product and at first loved it since I didn't have to keep buying batteries for my remotes. But after about 2 months the charger stopped charging the remotes and now it is a useless peace of crap. I suggest you spend a bit more to get something that will last longer then a month or two. I plan on getting a new charger after Christmas! Do yourself a favor and do not buy this product!!!
