Nyko Charge Base 2

Posted by: Dan | Posted in: PlayStation 3

image So I just purchased the Nyko Charge Base 2.  This allows you to charge your PS3 remotes without having to use a USB port on the PS3 and the main reason I got it is because it charges using an AC adapter.  This is nice because then you do not have to leave your PS3 on to charge your controllers.

The unit is well designed and comes with little dongles that you see in the bottom right of the picture.  You plug that dongle into the USB port on the remote and then you can just place the remote up-side-down into the charger.  The LED’s indicate if its charging are done, Red means charging Green means done.  It takes 2 hours to fully charge the remotes.  This will be a nice add-on to my PS3 so that I can make sure my remotes are fully charged, nothing worse then running out of power when you are playing.  Especially since I only have one DualShock Controller while the other two are not.

I bought mine at Microcenter because by the time shipping and handling was done from the Internet it was the same price.  Plus nothing like instant gratification!
