Wii mote charger
Is there an embargo on these or something? I know a few companies are releasing docking station/chargers but they all seem to have elease dates of march. Does anyone know where i can pick one up? Have already been through one set of batteries and ive only had the thing a day. (arms ache like you wouldnt belive as well, boxing is pretty knackering)

one set in a day!?
Mine lasted a whole 2 weeks! make sure u leave it on a stable flat service when your not using it. Its possible that its not going to sleep either. But i know what u mean, i've got through about 12 cells so far (but that is with 2 wiimotes)

THey were pretty craptacular cheapy batteries to be honest, didnt notince the ones that came with it till after theyd gone and i was looking for the manual. HTought it was a bit cheap not to include any.

I have gone through one set so far.
Play a couple of hours a night on it. I really want the charger station. Im hoping nintendo are gonna make their own charger station as although third party are good I`d rather trust a proper nintendo one |

Definite ftw on re-chargeables.
And also by the way, leaving the Nunchuck plugged in drains the batteries pretty quick. I left mine plugged into the Wii-mote over a weekend (Friday-Monday) and by Monday afternoon they were dead. Otherwise I am still on my first set.  Stealth Geek - And Proud! |

nyko are releasing a 3rd party charge station and batteries soon, looks like a deal to me, as there is also now a rubber grip on the back of the 'mote
im still on my first set, and had it a few days before xmas, but not played too much because of work |
