Venom Xbox One Twin Docking Station with 2 x Rechargeable Battery Packs (Xbox One)

Review for helping new gamers or people not to sure what they're doing.Turned up next day. It actually works, unlike another product I tried. Xbox one X compatible. Cant atest to it on the new Series X/S. But works on the Xbox one and Xbox one X perfectly!Pack slots into the back of the control pad itself. Recharges by "docking" the control pad back onto the main unit which itself is plugged into the Xbox's USB or you can have it charge straight from the mains, via the docking station.The battery lasts for a solid 6-8 hrs with a headset If you have two people playing on a long session and you want to stay wireless the whole day, would need 2 spare controllers and another 2 spare battery packs, so you can have those on the charger whilst you use the battery up gaming.What my friend and I do, he owns one, I own one, quick swap off one of the packs and away you go, no need for expensive batteries or annoying leadsAs stated already, plugs into the USB of your Xbox and charges in stand by mode when you are not playing as well as the obvious.Great bit of kit, especially for the asking price. Only downside, takes almost as much time to charge as the length of time it takes to use the battery up in the first place. My only slight criticism, why I advise spare packs .Very happy customer aside from that minor negative and it is a minor one.Enjoy if you get one.I am a flesh and blood person, not a bot and no one has paid me for this review, genuine grateful and happy, customer was costing me a packet in batteries.

Have only been using this for about a week so this is a fairly short term review. First impressions are that the materials are cheap (thin plastic) and that the connections for the charging points are quite flimsy (thin metal wires), however this is to be expected for the price. Despite those initial worries the charging dock works perfectly and actually looks significantly better once Xbox controllers are resting on it. The usb plugged into the back of my Xbox very easily and then it was ready to charge (even without the Xbox being turned on, so long as there was power going to it). The replacement battery packs fit into the controller very easily and from my experience seems to offer around 20 hours of gameplay off a full charge. A red light appears when the controller is charging and this usefully changes to green once fully charged. The ability to charge 2 controllers at once is very useful. Summary:Pros:Easy charging (rest controllers on dock)Useful coloured lights to show chargingCheap!Charge 2 controllers at onceCons:Some cheap materials (thin plastic)Difficult to charge the battery packs alone (not in controllers)

I first used a Venom Docking Station, when I got a XBOX 360 as birthday present over 5 years ago. I had to replace that one after about 3-4 years, with another Venom Docking Station, and that one is still working. Top Quality!So, when I bought an XBOX ONE, there was only one option for me when it came to wanting a docking station and rechargeable batteries for my XBOX ONE controllers, VENOM!This docking station is USB powered which means you can plug it into either the XBOX ONE, a USB mains charger, or any other USB device. In the box, you get the docking station, 2 rechargeable batteries, and a USB cable (of very generous length) used to power it, and an instruction manual.The docking station is designed to charge the battery while inside the controller, so if you only have one controller, this product may not be for you. When charging, a LED light on the front (the left one for the front controller, the right one for the back controller) will glow red, and when charged, it will glow green (a VERY bright light) The batteries give an excellent amount of charge (I don't know exactly how long, but it is very generous).Overall, if you own 2 XBOX ONE Controllers, and you want to be able to use one, while charging the other (or, of course charge both at the same time), then this is THE perfect choice. I cannot recommend it high enough, it truly is fantastic.
