 Great rechargeable batter (if you already have the base station) October 7, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This Nyko Wii Battery Kit is great if you already have the Wii Charge Station base. The base (sold separately) comes with two of these battery kits plus the base. Since the Wii can use FOUR Wiimotes, you'll need two additional batteries, and this Battery Kit fits the bill very well.
The batteries hold their charge quite well and for a long time. They also don't take TOO long to charge up.
Unfortunately, you can't set the batteries in the charger by themselves: They have to be attached to a Wiimote. Also, as Nintendo now ships the Wiimotes with a plastic cover, or "glove", you have to peel the "glove" at least halfway off of the Wiimote to place on the base. It can also be a little tricky to get the Wiimote to sit on the base because the Wrist strap gets in the way. It's not difficult, but it could have been a better design.
All in all I love this Battery Kit and the sold separately Nyko Charge Station. It does exactly what it's supposed to do: Give you a decent rechargeable battery for the Wiimote. My only concern is that the base could have been designed a bit better.
The Battery Kit itself, for which this review is for, is perfect!

Nice accessory ! September 29, 2008

I already had a Nyko charge station before buying an extra battery kit and it is a great accessor. It was the end of old batteries at home !
A wiimote can work up to 8 hours with the power of this accessory. For sure the batteries duration diminush with the time but I can still use my old 1 year and a half batteries for 4-5 hours. (and I used them a lot : Maybe 250 recharges ! LOL)
It won't last for 5 years I think ... but I only had to open my wiimote 2 times after buying my wii ; 1 time for the batteries coming the wii remote (for 3 days) and the second time when I bought the nyko kit !
 Batery Works For At Least A Year Or SO September 29, 2008

The batery works great, except that the batery can only be rechargable for at least a year or so. Until then, everything works fine, so don't think this batery can be infinitely be recharged.
Same goes for the Wii chargers.

An awesome product! Really beats buying AA batteries as you go through them very quickly. Also, they come in different colors, mine was green (looks cool). And I can just drop it in the recharge station that I already own. I will be buying one more to complete my 4 wii remotes.

These are rechargable batteries for the rectangle wireless remote controllers for the Wii console. If you already own the charger that charges these batteries, this battery kit will pay for itself once in a matter of months, and then over and over again if your Wii game is used daily. You MUST have the charger base to re-charge these batteries and they do recharge within about 30 minutes. We have four controllers and that we have purchased rechargable batteries for and the colors we have randomly received are: three gray and one turquoise. The "color" is only referring to the battery cover on the back as this comes with a replacement cover and the new one is rubberized.
