PS3 Power Station 

 

Anyone else out there having issues with charging their Move and Navigation controllers? Having to plug everything into the PS3 and keeping the unit on so they will fully charge? Snakebyte has a solution in the form of the PS3 Power Station. This will charge one Move controller, one Navigation controller, and one regular controller all at the same time.

The first thing I noticed about the PS3 Power Station is it's layout. This charger looks sort of like like a 'T'. Once the controllers are on it, I felt like I should grab ahold and use them like joysticks. But doing so would disconnect them from their charging ports. Which would not be a good thing when we are trying to charge it.

There are clear casings around where the Navigation and Move controllers plug into. These turn blue when we have the PS3 Power Station turned on. The controllers will blink on and off with their little red lights. The regular controllers will have all four red lights blink on and off. Once the controllers are charged their red lights stop blinking.

Thankfully the PS3 Power Station sits there and does not move much. The reason I bring this up is it does not feel very sturdy to me. In fact I could press on the bottom of the PS3 Power Station and feel the plastic bend. This is not something you will want to handle roughly. I see few problems as long as the PS3 Power Station is used as designed.

Having to charge the same three controllers on the PS3 would require three cords and eat up three USB ports on the machine. I see a definite use for PS3 Power Station, and like how easy it makes charging all three of these controllers at the same time. If you are looking for a charging unit for your PS3 controllers then I recommend the PS3 Power Station from Snakebyte USA.
