wireless 360 charge kit

If I get the XBox360 Quick Charge Kit,

The fastest way to recharge one or more rechargeable battery packs.
A cleaner charging solution-no wires to plug into your console.
Always ready and easily accessible-no need to stow it after each use.
Charge one battery pack in less than two hours, or two packs in less than four hours.
Battery offers up to 25 hours of play per charge.
Includes charging stand for two batteries, one Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack, and an AC adapter.

Does that mean it dosent need no more batterys as it uses the Rechargeable Battery Pack and you can chrage it up?

Correct. It comes with a battery for one pack that you can use over and over. Definite recommendation from me, as it recharges my batteries from flat in under 2 hours.

2 what? You need 2 battery packs for 2 pads, not 2 quick charge docks.

Also I think it comes with an AC adaptor, its just the Play and Charge lead that needs to be plugged into the 360.

Yeah another pack. Where could I get another battery pack for it though?

Thinking of buying one in a min

Probably the same place as you get the Quick Charge dock, or anywhere else that sells 360 accessories :confused:

You'd need to buy a separate battery for a second controller. The dock needs to be plugged into the mains but it does not link to the 360 in any way.

I bought the play and charge kit as well as its only a couple of pounds more expensive than the battery on its own, so that I use the quick charge kit when I'm not playing, and the play and charge in emergencies.

I found the docking station for £14.99 and a plug and play kit for £12.99 at same place.

I was thinking of getting 1 of each as it will give me 2 battery packs and the option to charge either way, the battery packs them self i've seen go for £8.99.

I think i'll just stick with my AA rechargable batteries i have for now as they do the job fine and i can charge 4 of them in around 8 or so hours so not to worried.

I got a quick charge kit and it just sits on a bench in the kitchen plugged in when i need to charge a pack

didnt see the pint in getting a play and charge kit as I couldnt sit on the sofa and play..seems daft having to plug in a wireless controller

better for me to pay a bit extra and have a ready charged pack always on the go..keeps the wife happy as she didnt want cables all over the place from my new console
