Do they still work? Also, if you have used other rechargeable batteries (such as energizer) what would you think of these compared to them? Are these significantly better?
No but if u want to use a android charger u can plug it in to ur xbox controller with out batteries n itll be useable u jus cant unplug it or its gonna turn off jus buy a 40 pack double A's at walmart for 12$
I just bought the cheaper set (only 4 AA batteries and the one without the LED). I really like it. I believe the one i have takes 7 hours for a full charge, whereas the one in the video takes 3.5 he said. However, they seem to work great. I've went through a few cycles and they seem perfectly fine. As for the time they last in the controller until needing charging, I'm going to take a wild guess at about 15 hours? i don't know if that accurate or if anyone else has specifics. By the way, the one i bought was about 18$ on amazon
I’ve used these Eneloop rechargeable batteries for more than 2 years and they still work problem free. A few of them have lowered charging capacity lately but I have certainly gotten my use out of them. They have gone through many charging cycles.
TheRenderQ oh thank you for the info also one question on amazon what like options do i order them whit i just want the 4 batteries and the wall charger practicly the same one you have and is there anything else i should include like a cable or sum
I've been using these batteries before i have seen this video but i just want to know how long the batteries last i have the same controller too so if you could help me it would be great.
I haven't exactly timed how long the batteries last but they do go for awhile. For me the great thing is that I have fresh batteries ready at all times and I don't have to worry about going out an buying new AA batteries anymore. Of course how long they last will be determined by how you play, vibration settings, volume settings, etc.
At about 3 years I just recently replaced the Eneloop batteries I used in the video. They got lots of use and I probably saved a lot of money on batteries. But after so much use they didn’t hold a charge very long so I bought a new set of Eneloop rechargeable batteries. Hope this helps!
In Microsoft Xbox website, they says we should only use LR6 battery type, which is lithium ion. This one is Nimh. How long have you been using this type if battery in your Xbox one S controller ? Not sure if Nimh batteries will kill the controller in long run.
I haven't had any problems with these batteries. I didn't even know Microsoft had specifications on the battery type to be used on the controllers before I bought these. But I've been using the Eneloop batteries since December 2016. So that's 10 months now and still working great! No damage to my controllers. Hope this helps!
I've been using eneloop since my Xbox 360. The same ones, the same unities. Which means, I changed video game genration and didn't change the batteries. My Xbox One controller is the same since I bought the Xbox, and I assure you: my controller has more than 1000 hours of gameplay. With the same batteries.
Vijay Giribabu hey I hope you read this comment. I have been using these for 2 years!!!! And they still last a ridiculous amount of time I HIGHLY recommend you get these. And I have been using them on an Xbox controller for 2 years and nothing has happened
What should my name be? Yeah. Nintendo had a similar comment with their gameboy advance line. Had no issues as well with nickel metal hydrates back then.
Hey dude i also have the Xbox One S, My controllers usb port got messed upp and it only works with batteries for how much you bought the eneloops batteries?
Alpha Male Dude same its a pain because I relied on my usb port as a power source for awhile and it doesnt work anymore, so i have to use batteries which i hate since xbox one controllers just eat them
Right now the price is $36 on Amazon for the battery package I bought which includes 8 AA and 4 AAA batteries plus charger. This is a great package because now I always have batteries fully charged and ready to use. You can see the battery kit here: amzn.to/2pWPzj7
Yes! If you plug the controller into a powered USB port then it will charge the batteries. I have an Xbox stand that charges controllers and it uses the USB port to do the charging. Hope this helps!
Yes! We have been using these exclusively on Xbox for almost a year and they still work great! I haven't really been paying attention to how long a set of batteries lasts in the controller before changing but it's super quick to swap out when they're dead. I have two Xbox consoles and two full sets of these batteries for each console so I have a lot of batteries. We always have a fresh set of AA batteries to use at any given time. The only thing that I've noticed is that sometimes the charger will start blinking red during a charge. I haven't narrowed it down to know if it's only specific batteries that are causing it or is it the charger. But it hasn't kept us from enjoying non-stop Xbox play. Hope this helps!
No, the batteries in the controller are not charged when it is connected with a USB cable. These batteries have to be charged with the included charger. Other types of batteries may require the controller to be docked to compatible charger. Hope this helps!
Thank you! It's not easy find the answer. So basically if you have a ps4 , sony includes a battery and you can recharge it through a micro usb cable connection, and if you are an xbox one owner you need the play and charge kit right ?
Why the Duck.. Xbox gotta do this... See the PS4 controller just plug it.. to console for a hr.. ur ready to Goo!!!.. this feels like Xbox is from 2005..
I believe you can plug the USB cable from the controller to a USB wall charger and charge the batteries in the controller. I have charging docks that charge the batteries through the USB port so I think you should be able to do it with a cable.
NiMH batteries tipicaly has a fully charged voltage between 1.5v to 1.45v and a minimun 1.0v discharged. A typical AA battery starts with 1.5v and goes down until 0.9v. So the voltage range of both are very similar. The main difference is AA battery voltage decrease rate is almost constant while NiMH stay at 1.2v 80% of the discharge time and then suddenly goes down to 1.0v, so the battery level check in Xbox is useless.
@@mikerm07 I Use NiMH Batterys In My Xbox series s controller, They Works Fantastic, I Playing About a Week With Headphone every day and steel Have About 70% Charge. I Will measure The Minimum Voltage Of Batterys That Works In Series S Controller, And Tell You Guys.
the thing about cheap batteries are its capacity and often not rated on the battery or package. could get it at dollar store for like unbrand 10pcs but in best cases it probably holds only 500mah.
My controllers still work even after a few years of using the Eneloop rechargeable batteries. However I do have one controller that is having problems being run by any battery. But I don’t exactly know what happened to it.
@@TheRenderQ a few people in my country having shortage problem, and they said the X button heated up beforehand and then the controller just doesn't work anymore, and they said as well that the problem was the differences type of battery NiMH or something made the shortage idk. the value of using rechargeable battery is nice but if things gone worse like that then.. 😬
Guys i bought a couple camelion AA 2100mh for my xbox one s controller it does not have charger with it so can you tell me how much it takes to full charger inside controller?
TheRenderQ what do you think about these? www.amazon.ca/Panasonic-K-KJ17MCA4BA-Individual-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B00JHKSMJU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1531586686&sr=8-3&keywords=panasonic+k
Yeah those batteries look great and like what I have. I think my pack came from Costco so of course everything is big from Costco. Mine came with AA and AAA batteries but what you have in the link is perfect!
I use the rechargeable batteries from Amazon. The basic rechargeable kind but the also have high capacity ones. I also have a charger and they're charged in about one hour.
Thanks for sharing the batteries you're using! There are definitely a lot of battery options for Xbox controllers! I also have the molded kind that replace the battery cover.
check this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0A1GvQ40j0Q.html the thing is that is not only about capacity, because as you can see there many companies lie about their capacity, i.e. you might buy 2400mAh but the battery end up having only 1600mAh
You can get the bundle I got for $39 which includes 10 AA batteries and 4 AAA batteries plus the charger. This is the one I got: amzn.to/2oxEAgk You can also get packs that only have 4 AA with charger like this one for $18: amzn.to/2MLYbba Over time you will save money without having to buy new batteries. Plus you will always have batteries on hand!
Each battery is 1900 mAh and they come pre-charged in the package so you can use them right away. These have worked great for my 2 Xbox One S consoles with multiple controllers. I never have dead batteries now... except if I forget to put the drained batteries in the charger. Hope this helps!
dude they paid you to sell me eneloop batteries? You should have tested many brands and showed numbers if you want to deserve the right to use a video title like that one thumb down.
Hey! No one paid me to use Eneloop batteries. These are the batteries I bought from Costco for Christmas to use in my Xbox controllers. I was trying to cut down on having to buy regular alkaline batteries since I was going through so many all the time. I have some other batteries that are integrated into the controller that work in a charging dock but I prefer using rechargeable AA batteries because I don’t have to unplug my headset every time to recharge my batteries. I guess any rechargeable AA would work but this is what was on sale at Costco at the time so I bought some to try. I found that these work great for me and continue to use these batteries to this day. I really appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!
@@TheRenderQ a video you might find interesting is this one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0A1GvQ40j0Q.html - he testes different brands amongs which the Eneloop rated for 2000 mAh, and they end up producing 1883 mAh which is only 94.4% of the rated capacity, so if the title is "Best Rechargeable Batteries", I would at least hand it to a company that respects or exceeds the rated capacity. If in the future you end up making another Best Rechargeable Batteries video, I would suggest taking this factors into consideration, for example the vast majority of chinese batteries have a rated capacity way higher than the real one etc... Also the ones you have are 2000mAh, for longer battery duration before recharge is needed, going with 2400 mAh (or higher?) would seems the better choice, even though I haven't tested yet if they fit the controller, since mine arrives tomorrow.
