5.0 out of 5 stars Not true...., November 30, 2005
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Xbox 360 Play & Charge Kit (Video Game)
You DO NOT have to have the Xbox 360 powered up to charge your controller. Simply plug the cable in while the console is on, and then shut down the machine. It will charge using a trickle charge concept. However, you MUST connect the cable to the console before powering down the system.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product: bad reviews are from misinformed people., March 14, 2006
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars

Simply put, this is an excellent product.
===============================================

Those who put up bad reviews don't know anything about the product.


Myth #1: You can only play while charging.
===============================================

Myth #2: Your Xbox360 has to be on, to charge it.
===============================================

Myth #3: You need to connect to an Xbox360 to charge it.
===============================================
This is WRONG. This isn't the only way. You can also charge via any USB port, such as your PC or...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential component and does NOT require the Xbox 360 to be on to recharge, November 26, 2005
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Xbox 360 Play & Charge Kit (Video Game)
This component is essential for the Xbox 360 to save on batteries.

However, you do not need to keep the Xbox 360 on while it is recharging. Simply plug your charger into the controller and into the Xbox 360 while the Xbox is on, and then turn it off.

Note To avoid pinching your fingers when you insert the battery pack, push only on the flat surface of the battery pack.
