Review on ๐Ÿ”‹ Energizer Power & Play Charging System for Playstation 3 by Eric Temple

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Eliminates the need to charge controllers

This game is very enjoyable and lots of fun. it's not a game at all. This is the real life. And in real life, you don't have time to fiddle with dead PS3 controllers. The Sony PS3 method of using USB to charge the controllers is a little silly and awkward, especially if you have one of the newer PS3s that only have two USBs. Key. Luckily I have a senior who is four. But I don't have to hold those slots with controllers anymore since I bought the Revain Playstation 3 Energizer Power & Play charging system. There's not much to say about it other than that it runs on AC power, freeing up the PS3's USB slots. Also, you don't have to turn on your PS3 while charging your controllers. It also comes with a handy power adapter for the Sony PS3 Bluetooth headset. This is very handy if you have that particular headset. But if you have another Bluetooth headset, you can still use one of the two USB ports on the side of the charger to charge that device. An added bonus (for me at least) is that my kids have finally started plugging in controllers when they stop playing (which is rare). Unfortunately (for me) the only reason they do this is because of the fancy lights that come on when the controller is plugged into the charger. It glows red when the controller is charging and green when the controller is charging. They think it's cool when the light is on, so turn it on when they're not playing. OK, whatever it takes. Again, nothing to say here except that it works. Buy one or two if you have four controllers today! Okay, you can buy one and be happy if you have four controllers, but there are only two bright lights and you need two USB cables to charge the other two controllers. I personally will buy another one if I buy two more controllers. The Playstation 3 Energizer Power & Play charging system is equipped with five out of five bright LEDs.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • A questionable purchase for the elderly
