Well i been wanting to get this product for awhile now to see how it is since i liked there Nyko Charge Station and this product is just like the charge station but you can dock your whole controller on it while it charges so no needing to take the battery out to charge it.
The Design of the Charge Base 360 is really cool and sleek. Its got the indicator Lights Red=Charging Green Equals Fully Charged. Yet though on mine at first the Green light never lighted up when it was fully charged but what it looks like it does it will light up after it is charged then turn off after a little bit i found this out after i took the controller off and put it back on and then i seen the red light then after a couple of seconds it went to green and stayed there for about a minute then it turned off so if you want to see if it is fully charged thats atleast how i did. I have played on it for a little over 20 hours straight yes and the battery still going strong. No weakness in the controls when i am playing a game.
I myself recommend this to anyone else this is a sweet product sleek in the design and awesome for how quick the batteries last and how quick they charge. The Nyko Charge Base 360 allows you to charge up two controllers on its Charge Base because it comes with two custom NiMH rechargeable batteries that have the special contact points allowing you to just set your whole controller down on the station. With the battery lasting up to 25 hours and only taking 2 hours to charge is really great so your never without it for very long. Another great thing is you dont need to plug the station into the xbox 360 its got its own Ac power adaptor and plugs into any standard outlets.
I would give this thing a 9/10 the reason why i did not give this product a 10/10 is that if they were really thinking about the hardcore or average gamer then they would have a couple extra slots on the side were you could charge the batterys seperate. Reason i say this is what if you only had 1 controller and u would want that other battery charged fully when the other one got low. Now if Nyko would of did this and had the full docking station now as it is with this little addon it would make this product a 10/10 but still i dont think this effects the average gamer but what can you say we always want more .
Price Range for this product is $29.99-$39.99
Gamestop had it for $29.99:)
Here is some pics below for you all.
