Charge Station U
SCORE: 80
Any kind of product that charges batteries
does not always get much love. Which is a shame because they can save
families hundreds of dollars on batteries. We have used plenty of Nyko
charging batteries and units for years now. Some of them we have used
for years until they eventually died out.
The Charge Station U is a unit where you can charge your Wii U Gamepad,
and two Wii Remotes. The Wii Remotes use battery packs that are included
in the Charge Station U package. The unit has a large light on the front
of it that lets you know if it is fully charged or not.
The colors used on the Charge Station U lights are the same that appear
on the Wii U Gamepad. Meaning Red is almost dead, Orange is charging,
and Blue is fully charged. The normal Wii U Gamepad power cord plugs
into the Charge Station U. The Charge Station U angles the Wii U Gamepad
in such a way that it can be easily played (as long as it does not
require the Wii U Gamepad to be moved around).
One thought parents may ask is why do they need the Charge Station U if
they can directly plug in the Wii U Gamepad to a power source. The
coolest thing I see in the Charge Station U is the two additional Wii
Remote rechargeable battery packs. Plus it looks really neat with all
three on it.
The only concern I have with the Charge Station U is its size. It
requires some room to put this somewhere. However if you are putting it
on a table it will be fine. Charge Station U can also be used to replace
a Wii Remote charging kit you may have in your home.
I really wish charging units like the Charge Station U would get more
attention and love. This is a neat unit that is being sold at a very
fair price. In the long run it can save your family quite a bit of
money.
