If you're looking for an alternative solution to charging up your Xbox 360 controller rather than by using batteries or a USB charger, Nyko has launched its Charge Base 360, which allows you to charge two wireless controllers simultaneously.

Nyko’s Charge Base 360 comes with two custom NiMH rechargeable batteries that feature special contact points, allowing the controllers to be easily dropped into the Charge Base 360 without removing the battery packs.

Two ports allow up to two controllers to charge simultaneously, with a single charge providing up to 25 hours of play time for each controller. The device is AC powered and plugs into any standard outlet for a charge time of less than 2 hours for one controller, and less than 4 hours for two controllers.

The Charge Base 360 also includes two LED lights which change color to indicate the charge status of each controller.













A limited edition run of 200 units in a Black & Gold color scheme will go on sale June 2nd, exclusively on the Nyko store website at http://www.nyko.com/chargebase360/ for the standard MSRP of $34.99.
