Rating: - THIS IS WII ESSENTIAL
I wasn't sure with the some of the other comments if this would be worth trying, but have given it five stars, because it is so simple to use, built well, and I just gently place the Wii Mote in the slot and it contacts each and every time perfectly and charges perfectly. I am playing about three hours a day, for fitness training, and this charging station is AN ESSENTIAL!!!!
Rating: - AWESOME
It is sooo nice not to have to keep recharging my doulbe a batteries individually anymore! This charger works great and saves the hassle of having to wait when you want to play!
Rating: - A Must Have!
This is a MUST HAVE, although it does have a couple flaws that I'll discuss later. I'd actually give this a 4.5 but that option wasn't available.
When we first got our Wii, we used rechargable batteries but they died pretty fast and sometimes at critical stages of the game. The day that Mario ran straight off the moving pads and plunged to his virtual death in the swirling black vortex of Super Mario Galaxy because the batteries died was the day I got on Amazon and purchased this item!
PROS: the cradle is nice and compact (about 6"x3") and fits unobtrusively just about anywhere; it feels solid - like it's high quality; the batteries and new battery cover are very easy to install; your Wii-mote stays fully charged all the time; a light turns from blue to green to let you know the Wii-motes are fully charged.
CONS: you can't use the new rubber skins that come with the Wii-motes while it's on the charging cradle (you can put it on afterwards, however, because it fits over the new battery cover); you have to make sure the wrist strap is pulled to the side so that the battery can get a good connection with the charger when you place it in the cradle - you will know this has happened when you hear a little click and the blue light comes on.
So, the cons do NOT by any means outweigh the pros on this one. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to not worry about the batteries or get that annoying bleep and pop-up when one of the Wii-motes is running low. Or worse yet have it die mid-game. To sum it up, Wii love it!!!!!!
Rating: - DO NOT BUY IT it will break your remote and void warranty
do not buy this or any other kind of wii remote charger where u have a different pack.
This product voids your warranty and may break your wii remote. I know from experience. I called nintendo staff and they told me that it was products like this that broke my remote. It also voided the warranty so if i wanted to get it fixed, instead of getting a free repair i had to [ay to get it repaired. If you already have it STOP USING IT
The only type of rechargeable batteries u should buy are the kind were they can only be recharged wehn taken out and put into a spereate charger like DURACELL DIV. OF P & G 18035 RECHARGEABLE PRECHARGED BATTERIES - AAA 4PK

Wii Charge Station
It works very well. I am pleased to have the ability to keep the remotes charged without having to constantly buy new batteries.
