Review: XBOX 360 Play And Charge Kit

Need some more time for your batteries so you can play your XBOX all night? Do you hate using AA batteries? Wouldn't you want a rechargeable battery instead? Take a look at what I havve to say for the XBOX 360 Play And Charge Kit. In this video I went over the specs, the charger and the battery pack, discussing past experiences with this charging solution, demonstrating the charger, and concluded whether you should purchase this product or not.

Note: To turn off your Xbox 360 console but continue charging the battery, you must shut down your console through the Dashboard i.e don't turn off via power button on console.

You can use the cable without using a battery as a wired one.

Guys, the best way to charge the xbox controller is:
Buy an energizer rechargeable battery with charger.(it is costly but its worth buying).
Charge the battery for 1 full day.
remove the battery from the controller and put this new battery.
When the charge finishes, remove the battery and charge it again.
You can buy extra energizer rechargeable battery so that u can keep this charged when the other one is finished.
Trust me this is the best idea for charging xbox controller. I charge it in this way.

Whoa whoa hold on a minute. Don't get pissed off. When I said that, the battery will last for years. I didn't mean it like it'll only last for months. Either way, this is still a good battery.

Great review! Thank you for the information. Helped me decide on what charging option to go with.

I *HATE* this product. I've gone through 2 now and both of them were defective. I could leave the console on with the controller plugged in for 1-2 days, it doesn't matter. As soon as I unplug it, I know I have about 10 seconds before the controller dies.

this video was extremely helpful and I got the answer I was looking for. I'm going to go with a charging/docking station for my controllers instead of the play and charge kit. Just because the xbox has to be running to charge the battery pack, which is no good because heat can be an issue with the xbox 360. Great video!! Subscribed!

Hey your review is awesome, but I have two questions
1. Since its USB can i get it charge using my PC USB or Converted Wall socket USB?
2. There is Duracell Play And Charge Kit too whats your idea about that when comparing with Microsoft Play And Charge Kit?

My wont charge (no red light) when its plugged in. Does that mean the charger is faulty?

Thanks for this video, I was gifted an old 360 elite edition with this rechargeable battery pack and since I haven't used Xbox much I wasnt sure how to charge it.

hi i have a question, if you play games with the controller while it's charging will this harm the battery's life? is it like the phone when you are charging it and you use it at the same time the battery's life damages and then it drains fast?

Iconic intro song! Great video!! Thanks!!!

[nosocialmedia]

Will it work if it’s plugged in with no batteries

[regianeduarte]
