Xbox 360 Power Pak - Black Reviews
| 39 of 40 people found the following review helpful  Great Value, By 8bitPunk (Riverside, Ca USA) - See all my reviews = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Xbox 360 Power Pak - Black (Accessory) Comparable to the rechargeable batteries sold by Microsoft.Fits fine in both the controller and the charging station I have. The battery play time is just about the same as the official Microsoft Rechargeable batteries. EDIT: APRIL 2011 (1 yr after using product) This battery still holds a charge as well as my official "Microsoft" rechargeable batteries. When I bought this battery, I bought a brand new "Microsoft" battery as well and have been switching back and forth using each one until they die as a test against this unit's capacity. I will never buy another Microsoft battery again when presented with choosing this battery or an "official" one. In retrospect, the only con about this battery is that it doesn't sit "flush" with the back of the controller. I figure that since the majority of my time spent using this battery involves me looking at a screen, and not the controller, this is so minor as to not affect my future purchasing...

But then the battery started to resist a charge, until eventually the light would just turn green and I'd have to play with it plugged in.But recently I found out that all these kinds of batteries (including Microsoft's) will not want to charge at some point. When this happens you need to plug the play and charge kit in until the light turns green after a few seconds, unplug it, and plug it back in. If you repeat this process usually after a few tries, although it varies and might take more, it will start to charge again. You're forcing the battery to charge a bit at a time, until it builds up enough of a charge to finish charging completely. So to sum it all up, this battery works very well, you just need to know the trick. 12 of 13 people found the following review helpful Works perfectly fine., By = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Xbox 360 Power Pak - Black (Accessory) I use this in my Microsoft 360 Quick Charge Kit and it charges fine and holds a full charge. Used Microsoft xbox 360 batteries at Gamestop are $9.99 - I would rather buy a brand new one and know that most of its charging life hasn't been expended. I use this with a white controller, but honestly, who stares at the bottom of their controller? :) |
