    5:37 The instructions show that the kit includes the 4 battery doors, 2 labeled A for Xbox One and 2 labeled B for Xbox Series X. That would probably explain why you couldn't fit them on properly. They have slightly different shapes and/or cutouts I believe. Thanks for your review. I'm picking up a kit myself. Cheers!

      Yes, the one covers have a curve at the back where s/x are flat.
      They fit my xbox one s controllers with no problems besides trying to figure out what to do with all the extra battery covers I can't use. Lol

    I got these just over a year ago and they deteriorated so fast. About three months ago the batteries became so weak that they couldn't turn on the controller when fully charged. If your looking for something long term I would not get these. I'd recommend rechargeable AA batteries as they aren't super weak after a year and last you way more playtime.

  • @bryanobrien2726
    @bryanobrien2726 Před 2 lety +20

    Just so you know . A good set of rechargeable AAs (like say Amazon Basics) will give you 4800mAh . The ones in this kit are 1100mAh . That's why people still use AAs . They'll last 4x longer .

      @@BudgeTechReviews To each their own , but this kit doesn't even use USB C . The micro USB they used on these is notoriously easy to break and the other alternative is to buy the optional charge dock for another $20 . They make rechargeable AAs , they sell them at literally every major store in the US and they're tough as hell . There's no reason to waste money on alkalines . A set of 4 will set you back less than $10 and they'll work in other things too like remotes and stuff . The best rechargeable AA kit batteries with charger , Panasonic Eneloop , is less than $20 if you don't own a charger .
      There's no cheaper , easier to find , better batteries pound for pound than rechargeable AAs . Not sure why all the hate .

    Does the xbox dashboard show the battery level so you get a low battery notification when the battery is low? Cos I bought a battery pack from amazon which actually charges from the controller usb-c port itself but the battery indicator in the dashboard doesn't work and when the battery is low it just straight up turns off the controller which is annoying when you don't know you have a low battery cos there's no notification

      Yeah but the thing about playstation controllers is that battery can't be changed inside as easily and does lose charge after maybe a year or so, depending on use. These batteries will wear out too but they can be changed out easily. The controller has to be bought used or new to get a new charge.

  • @Collin905
    @Collin905 Před rokem

    Personally I think these batteries are decent if u charge them every night. But I opened these packs up and each battery is 1100mah, which makes it a 2200mah battery pack. Also the battery’s aren’t even AA or AAA it’s a custom kind or something. But if u want some good battery’s that can last 2 day intense gameing sessions, I’d go to your local dollar general and pick up a pack of Energizer recharge battery’s, that come with 4 batteries and 1 charger for 11$ . And each Energizer battery is 2300 mah so both batteries together would be 4600mah. So my conclusion to the PowerA battery pack is that it is kinda a ripoff that was made for looks because it comes with a nice charging stand, well some do. But the battery packs are kinda shit.

      I also have these exact batteries. They have lasted for 2 years and are still good. I have 2 controllers and usually charge them via a dock station but sometimes with a micro plug. I think there great batteries at a very good price. I charge them after every play session whether it’s 2 hours or 8 hours. I think draining them to the “dead” point is what makes these batteries fail early.
      I will most likely try the C plug connection the next time I replace batteries as my dock station is starting to have issues and C plug is far superior to a micro port.
