    Wii Controller Charge Station

    http://www.amazon.com/NYKO-TECHNOLOG...3338155&sr=1-1

    Seems like it comes with a dock for 2 controllers. Even though I have a set of 8 rechargable AA batteries already, I have to say I'm highly considering a couple of these just so I don't have to take the back cover off the Wiimotes every time I need to change the batteries. Yes, I guess I AM that lazy!

    Well ... I'm on the fence still ...

    One, this particular company isn't highly known for quality products to begin with.

    Two, I use skins on my Wii-motes. I'm betting skins are not possible when using these chargers. (I don't care about color and crap - I just like having that extra non-slip surface for guests that come over)

    I'm going to wait for the suckers to come out - let OTHER people guinea pig the things - then I'll look into it.

    Honestly, since I got my Wii (i.e. the DAY it came out) I've replaced ONE set of batteries in ONE Wiimote. A couple others are coming due shortly, but even having to pull back the skins like pulling the scalp off a skull before cracking it open like a walnut, I'm pleased at how long they last.

    There seems to be quite a few reviews of the product on EB's website that look favorable. Of course, who knows how reliable they are. I've only had to change the batteries twice myself in the 2 remotes that are used daily, so I suppose changing batteries isn't really a HUGE issue. As I said though, I'm chronicly lazy.
