Review on Enhance Your Wii Gaming Experience with Nyko Charge Base IC for Wii by Lisa Chandler

Some of the reviews I read about this charger before buying it mentioned that it was difficult to charge Wii remotes with the shells still on. After receiving the charger, I was convinced that this was absolutely true. Remote controls sit very tightly in holders without protective covers. If you put them on and try to charge the remotes, it will be difficult for the magnet to make contact to hold the remote. I do find this a bit of an annoyance, however, as it's actually not very difficult to take the sleeves off and back on (at least unless you're using Wii Motion Plus, which I have no experience with). ). For those who, like I said, don't like to take their sleeves off; Charging remote controls with shells is difficult, but not impossible. One thing I didn't expect was the strength of the magnet. I was a little worried about how well the magnet would hold the remotes in place. That doubt is long gone. The magnet is VERY strong. He almost snatches the remote control out of your hand and puts it back in its place. In fact, there's no difficulty in getting the thing lined up correctly. The magnet pulls it in place. Overall I am very happy with this charger. your protective covers. Additionally, another review claimed that sleeve remotes take longer to charge. I decided to try this. I took both dead remotes and charged them at the same time; once with sleeves, once without. The one with the case actually charges much faster than the one without. The only downside I've noticed so far is that the battery life seems to be shorter than the regular rechargeable batteries I was using prior to purchasing this charger. However, the information provided with the charger states that it may take several charges before the batteries are fully charged. Let's see if it stays like this in the future. After further review I am changing my rating from 4 to 5 stars.
