Works for Original or After Market Controllers

Works very well with both original and after market Wii and Wii U controllers. Getting the charging panel to hit just the right spot can be difficult though, especially when you have the safety cord in the way. Not a big deal though.

I bought this product as a Deal of the Day. I thought it was a great deal. I was always buyimg batteries for my kids' Wii remotes. This eliminated the need to replace them all the time saving time & money. I was a little disappointed that after a few charging sessions the charging dock started having trouble keeping contact with the battery pack and I would have to wiggle the Wii remote around to finally start charging the battery pack. This could have been a much bettery product. The customer support for the product was terrible.

Package includes 2 rechargeable batteries and the stand. The one drawback is that it does not have an AC adapter--rather, it is plugged into the back of the Wii unit.

This works great, but not designed to work with a plastic/rubber case. So you would have to take it off each time.

Really like the simplicity and it also seems to have a long lived battery. Slim and can handle two controlers at one time. Love it.

So far, it works great. I like the new system of charging, which uses a different electrical contact design on the battery. Much more reliable while charging. Great price when on sale as deal of the day!

No complaints, works great. One thing is that you do need to line the remotes on the pad just right in order for it to charge. That can be challenging for a 6 year old, but and adult can figure it out.

Good but needs a power cord

It doesn't come with a power cord and needs to be plugged into the Wii to charge the remotes. Therefore it only charges when the Wii is on.

My previous charger for the wii remotes stopped charging after two years. I saw this induction charger and it charges without having to remove the rubber covers for the wii remote. You do not have to remove the accuracy attachment or the numchuk attachment either! Just leave it all together and lay it on the induction pad, no fuss!
Also eliminates the annoying jiggle you have to do sometimes to get a charger to get a good connection and work properly.

I have two of these, and both are working great. However, sometimes the light turns green in just an hour's time, so I'll move the remote to the next position to continue charging.
My Best Buy associate recommended that I always play the remote until the battery is dead before charging, to extend the battery life as much as possible. So far, that's working,

This product works great. Only problem is that it doesn't plug into a wall to charge but in a USB port to charge your controllers.

They work BUT beware USB only.

Ok, maybe I didn't read it well enough, but I never did see the package specify that these are USB powered only. That's right, no wall wart power supply. If you don't have a ready USB port to power these, don't bother. Also, I bought them new via Best Buy's website yet both had been previously opened and returned. Not cool BB. If you want to sell me open box/returned items, please tell me in advance.

I have the Energizer charging system for two remotes and the game pad, so getting the Energizer charging system for the two extra remotes was a must and it works great.

I bought this as a replacement for my last set. I had that one for about 2 years and recently the WiMote would not sync properly with the Wii when using this rechargeable battery. It would work fine with AA batteries. I replaced it with this set and now all is good. Besides that, this seems to be the best of the rechargeable options.

But it's actually much better. It's just a flat stand that you set your batter on and it charges without needing to be connected. Really cool and works really well.

Having the rechargable bank is amazing. The only downside is that you have to take off the rubber grip to fit in charger.
