What's great about it: AC adapter, not USB!
What's not so great: not so much of a CON but would be nice to have 4 charging spots

"I've waited forever for an AC powered PS3 controller charger and this one overshot my wants. The included attachment is a superb idea and it works like a charm. No more fiddling with that tiny mishaped plug on the controller/USB charger! A+ product, go get one."

Awesome Charger!   07/16/2008
By BitsBits

What's great about it: solid cradle, AC outlet powered charger, feels and looks like a 1st party accessory
What's not so great: No usb ports for other accessories

"I almost didn't buy this charger... I looked at the packaging and couldn't tell that there were adapters that plugged into the usb ports on the controller. I asked the sales person at the store how the charger worked and he told me the charger had a usb port covered behind the packaging...Glad I didn't believe him.

This charger is Awesome!!

This is the way the the controllers should be charged. The cradle locks the controllers in place with a spring loaded clip that ensure that the controllers are getting charged. Could be tricky the first time putting the controller on the cradle. However, once you lock in it the first time you'll never have any problems doing it again.

I have many devices that charge using the mini usb plug. Over time the ports get loose and don't charge efficiently or at all. I had mixed feelings when Sony made the cables usb. However, with this charger I am not as worried. My only digg on the charger is that it didn't have any usb ports on it for charging other devices like a bluetooth headset..."

cool and lite ps3 charger   05/29/2008
By navymarkus from San Antonio, TX

What's great about it: small base unit, very light on weight, & charges two controllers @ the same time
What's not so great: very flimisy pins on charging unit

"Great charger unit, would have given this product 5 star rating but the pins on the charging unit are very flimisy. If you don't put the ps3 controller on it just right you will damage the pins. I think I should have explained the pins thing alot better first. When you buy this product it comes with an attachment you put on the charging port of the controller, that makes the controller have four flat pins for charging much like a walkie talkie radio when you drop the radio in the charging unit to charge. The attachment is very lite and you really don't notice it on the controller at all. It doesn't interfere with the grip of the controller or feel. Now on to the charging unit, it is very small and lite too. It can house two ps3 controllers very well. It looks very nice and compact too, unlike some charging units that look very goddy and big too. I bought this charging unit because I don't have alot of room on my entertainment center, but this product fits the bill. And it also plugs ONLY to the wall AC power. No USB port(s). Like I said before in the CONS: becareful when putting the ps3 controller on the charging unit, if you dont put it back on just right you will damage the pins on the unit. Overall I think it is a great product, would I buy this product again.........YES!!!"
