One of many charging stand I have purchased for my consoles over the years. But by far the best. $29.99 gets you two high quality rechargeable batteries that work specifically with this stand, 2 special back coverings that fit the controllers and the stand itself.
One of the many pros this stand has is, it has its own ac adapter. So no need to take a USB port on your console. The actual portion that holds both controllers. Can be raised and lowered with a downward push. So charge the controller when needed. Raise the holding seat and preserver electricity and optimize battery life when not in use.
Green and red lcds let you know when charging has completed and a very attractive paint job make this stand a great addition to any gamer and media stand.
Only con I can think of, and this is pushing it, is the stand itself could use a bit more weight as to not move around so much. By no means a deal breaker.

Solid dual charging station

I got this for free, as part of a sale when you purchase the Halo wireless controller. The dual charging stand works perfectly. You need to push the controller down onto the stand to click and start charging. Light changes from red to green when charging is complete.
Since you need to push down to click and charge, you're able to place the controller back onto the stand and not charge. IF you want to prevent having to constantly charge the battery, simply because you put it on the charger.
It matches the Halo controller perfectly with the coloring and theming. I would definitely recommend this to go with the Halo controllers or simply just to get a rechargeable battery system for your wireless controllers.

BEST CONTROLLER I OWN

I took advantage of the deal of the day from best buy and took a chance with this controller that included the charging station with the special offer. What a great buy! The most comfortable controller I ever owned and it also looks very classy. Liked it so much, I went out and bought a second (also due to the 2 slot charger that was included) which only charges this controller, not other XBOX 1 controllers..... Rating this product I love this purchase and still give it 5 stars, although the charging station will not charge other controllers.

This charging station is nice! You can use it to hold your controllers on your desk next to your console. Matches the HALO 5 guardians controllers and the XBox one console. Best buy keeps having a good deal on this w purchase of a Halo 5 controller. We have purchased several of these. comes with 2 rechargeable batteries. you swap out the backs of the controller and place them in. Battery Saver! when you want to charge them you just press down. Lights on the base show you Green once charged and Red when charging. Good purchase!

Superior to others I've used!

It looks good and charges controllers, that's about all that it needs to do. What makes it so nice is the feature of being able to hold your controller without charging it as well. It's never good to have electricity constantly flowing to your battery after it's fully charged, I've had problems of that in the past on other consoles. But this can be a controller stand and a charger both. It works very well. The plastic it's made out of is sort of cheap, but that's basically the only potential issue.

As a fan of the Halo game franchise I'm blown away by the scale of this one. Huge maps and great cooperative game play! Awesome multiplayer that brings something new and different to the table. The story is a my only complaint about it. It had a different way of telling of the story, not necessarily bad, just different. But all in all I would buy it and I still continue to play it. Try it and make up your own mind about it.

I really like this charger. I have had ones from Energizer and Nyko and although those work well, this one seems more user friendly when it comes time to just place the controller on the charger. Sometimes the others have to be fiddled with before contact is made. This one just works great as soon as you put the controller down. The plus side is that this one also matches the Halo 5 console and controllers.

Great addition to the Halo 5 console

This is a great addition to my Halo 5 console. When I'm done using the controller I just set it on the charging station and push down on the controller (till I hear it "click"). A quick check at the base verifies that it's charging when I see the red lit band at the bottom. Later, when my wife or I check on it, the bar, if it's turned green you know the controller has fully charged; very nice.

So I just got an Xbox One a couple of months ago and have been playing a fair share of time. I have noticed however that the batteries from AA do not last as long as I feel they should. I got this because I don't want to be spending all of my money on batteries for the controllers. So far I have been very pleased with these and the halo theme just adds to the fun.

Reliable charging

It has worked perfectly for me, fully charges a controller in about 4-6 hours, but the batteries will last 40+ hours. The packs and plates on the back of the controller fit tight so no chance of falling out and feels virtually the same. The detail on the charger itself is like a vinyl wrap so it might peel eventually but as far as function it is perfect.

I got this thing for free with a deal best buy did with the 2 limited halo 5 controllers, and I must say these things are awesome. Its easy they come with a different battery pack to put in your controller,when its low you just set it down on the charger press down and it locks in and when the light turns green your controller is charged and ready to go!

It was so annoying looking for batteries all the time, that is, until this baby came along! We love the Power A charging station. We got it for free with the purchase of the Halo 5 controller. It looks very nice and appealing with both controllers charging on the stand. The charging time is very quick. I would love to purchase another one.

it was slightly confusing at first just cause i wasn't used to pushing a controller down to charge it... but its really neat... plus once its fully charges it pushes up slightly to avoid an overcharge and you have a place to rest your controllers when not in use...

Cool concept

We have the Halo controllers so this charging station allows for the controller to be specific to the side of the charger. I also like the idea of the station itself raising up to keep the batteries from developing a memory. The batteries are also lasting for a long time as we are going on day 2 of playing without having to recharge.

This charger has the battery packs, battery covers, and a cool charging base. It fits the two special edition controllers well, and looks good on a shelf. Good for collectors, halo fans, or folks who like a clean aesthetic in their entertainment area.

Neat charger

This was actually a gift with purchase, and it's neat. It's different then the Energizer one we currently use. The only thing is my son has to remove his stereo headset adapter before putting it on the charger. Other than that it is a good charger so far. Neat looking, both color schemes like the Halo controllers.

And purchased the Master Chief controller, I would recommend buying this if you are also looking for rechargeable batteries for your controllers. The package includes two batteries that I have been satisfied with performance of, and the charging base just goes along with the theme of the two controllers together.

Great Kit For Xbox One

This far exceeded my expectations. This is ideal for charging controllers. It has two different color lights for charging and completed. It has a push down method to charge and then when not charging you can push agin to just cradle the controller. Very good product if you are a Halo fan.

Halo design is cheap looking.

The charger itself functions great. Its easy to use and since it uses a wall plug it doesn't tie up my usb slots also it will charge when my Xbox One is off. As far as the appearance goes (the Halo design not the charger itself) it looks very cheap and not well done at all. I would recommend this charger on its functionality but not its appearance. I would go with basic black version of this charger it looks far better.

I received this item as a free gift with the purchase of our new XBox. I really didn't pay much attention to what it was before I placed the order since it was free but it is definitely useful. As much as my kids play video games, they are always needing to recharge the controllers.
