    Very good battery life. Except I bought a 2 pack and only one holds a charge after 2 uses and cannot return item. Skeptical about any rechargeable battery or gaming device

      We’re glad to hear that one of the batteries performs well, but we’re sorry to learn that the second one is no longer holding a charge. Even though the item is no longer returnable through the store, we’d be happy to help review this under our warranty process.

      Please reach out to us with your proof of purchase and the serial number from the battery pack so we can further assist. powera-alpine

    The games that you have access to with game pass ultimate so too many to even count. In my opinion the price is worth it, feels like the xbox live gold.

    The batteries don’t last long. I can kill them in about a day where standard AA will last about 3 straight days or so. Overall they’re fine if they live on a charger during down time.

      Battery performance can vary based on usage habits, charging frequency, and controller settings such as vibration or lighting. As you mentioned, keeping the batteries on charge during downtime is a good practice to ensure consistent performance.

      If you continue to experience noticeably short battery life, please let us know so we can assist with additional troubleshooting or explore warranty options. powera-alpine

    They are good. Come with correct battery covers which is great. Only negative is says they last 40 hours and I maybe get 20 hours of play before they are dead.

      The Play & Charge Kit includes two 1100 mAh rechargeable batteries designed to provide up to 20 hours of gameplay per battery (up to 40 hours combined), though actual battery life can vary depending on usage and settings. powera-alpine

    Great product. It’s nice they give you two of them. And the ability to change while playing, plus docking availability is super cool. Battery life is good, but not nearly as good as they claim.

    These are designed to trigger people with anger issues. They are near impossible it install into the controller. I got it in finally and will likely never take it out and put it in again.
