Should work. Rest mode is perfectly safe to use though, you can set it so it only supplies power to the USB ports for three hours which is more than enough time for the controller to charge. It won't actually be doing anything or using any significant amount of power unless there are files/updates to download.

Yes you can, that's what I do (with my DS4), I just plug the cable into the side USB port on the XB1.

I'm not worried about the electric usage, more so there is an outage which crashes the console or something.
And does the yellow bar on the DS4 light up and then go out at charge completion in the same way?

Just ordered a PS4 to go alongside my Xbox One, Yay 
I use my tv to charge the controller and the light bar charges up the same.

Anyone looking forward to Tropico 5, looks good fun. I think it got delayed last year for ps4 and will hopefully be released first quarter of 2015.

To be honest I had heard of the tropico series but did not realise it was coming to ps4 until I saw it mentioned on another website. Looking forward to this!

Won't do any harm, I've had a couple of power cuts while the console was in rest mode. It just moans at you the next time you turn it on.

There is one on eBay, but it's from the usa.
Wanted to try and avoid ordering from overseas.
Yeah thats the route I'm looking at now.
