Perfect for Gamers
Able to fully charge in an hour and the charge lasts for hours. It’s also got a usb port on the back so you can charge other things. Would definitely recommend.
Easy to use. Charges 🔋 well.
I can not believe how well this work for the money. Use it everyday. Both of my X box controller’s work well with it. Has saved loads of money on batteries
Amazing quality and value
I needed this charging station as I was fed up with buy AA battery’s and I was happy with my purchase very good quality for the price my son is loving it so much.Highly recommended
Good quality for the money 💰
This product was helpful for my son as he has 2 Xbox controllers. It take a excellent amount of time to charge and there are helpfull indicators to tell you if the controller is charged.
Perfect product, easy to use looks great.
I tried to plug it straight into a 13a 230v socket on my wall, however there was too much voltage!
If you have this red to green flash problem when charging, plug it into your PC USB port or equivalent, as it will then work as intended.
Good budget optio
For the price there isn’t much to fault. The only difference between this and a higher end model is that the charging contacts are very exposed, those that aren’t gentle will break them. At this price though, there isn’t much to complain about.
I’ve used Venom battery packs for going on 10 years now. Never once had an issue. Recently bought my son a xbox for his birthday and gave him my battery pack so purchased this one for myself.
The cable has plenty of length, there’s 2 battery covers in the box and i like the red/green charging light to indicate when charged. Works perfectly as always.
Would recommend over any other xbox battery pack or charging station and it compliments the Xbox console nicely
Very happy
Arrived quickly, doesn’t take up much space, easy set up, and literally just place your controller on top overnight and the battery lasts all day (even if you’re using it all day).
Good price too.
Works with Xbox one
Bought these to replace the batteries in an older xb1 controller and also the battery in a new xb1s controller (the xb1s controller also works with xb1 console).
They fit nice, in both controllers; there’s a different cover for each type of controller, they supply 4, 2 for each type.
Charge time is about an hour. Battery life is at least 4 hours. I’ve not played longer than that before recharging.
Does exactly what it says
Good value item, replacing the battery cover is a little fiddly but once on it’s fine, the unit plugs into one of your spare USB connectors on the back of your console – you get a decent length braided cable to connect with and it comes with battery covers for both types of console
works fine
Bought the black single charger model for my xbox series S 1TB.
Rather than plugging it into the xbox, I plugged it into an old usb phone charger which is powered from a switched extension lead which also powers the TV’s old sound system. When I turn off the sound system, the Venom charger is turned off too.
Only minor observation is there is a knack to putting the gamepad controller into the cradle. Otherwise, the spring loaded electrical contacts don’t make proper connection.
Too early to comment on the life expectancy of the nimh battery pack. Hopefully it will last upto 2 years.
Price and usability
As other m’s have said it can sometimes not charge when u first sit the controller on the charger but all you need is a slight adjustment and it works. I think for the price it’s perfec
I recently picked up the Venom Charging Dock for my Xbox Series X, and I’m absolutely thrilled with it. This charging dock has made my gaming life so much easier.
The included rechargeable battery pack is a game-changer. No more fumbling with disposable batteries or dealing with tangled cables. The setup was a breeze, and it fits perfectly with my Xbox Series X controller.
The dock itself is sleek in black, blending seamlessly with my gaming setup. It’s great to have a dedicated place to charge my controller when I’m not playing, and I never have to worry about running out of power in the middle of a game.
If you own an Xbox Series X, S, or One, this charging dock is a must-have accessory. It’s made my gaming experience smoother and more convenient. Highly recommended!
5.0 out of 5 stars No more having to charge batteries or use a charging cable to the controlle
Perfect! Comes with a rope green and black long charging cable that you can use to plug into the device and the Xbox to charge up (mines an Xbox series S). The rechargeable batteries (x2) replaces the normal batteries in the controllers. Indicators show when it’s charging, or fully charged. When one controller gets low, I swap it with the other one. Also comes with battery covers. No complaints!
4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and does what it says it does
I really needed something to use with the controllers with a rechargeable battery. This is relatively cheap from a trusted brand and really easy to setup and use. The only slightly tricky thing is you have to store the controllers in exactly the right position for it to recognise it but that is just so the connector line up. It will always go in within 2 tries and you can instantly see whe Ln it does as the leds light up red when charging and green when fully charged. Excellent and easy to use.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good
Does what it should, just don’t like how I can’t charge the 2nd battery when not in use, have to have 2 controllers if you want to charge both or charge 1 and use 1
Brilliant!!
Usually I play video games most of the day from up to 3-12 hours a day and this is the case especially this summer. Buying batteries stand alone is expensive and choosing to buy this twin dock charging set for rechargeable Xbox batteries has helped me a lot.
It allows me to recharge my batteries up to 100% the next day and carry on as usual. It offers ease of transition between the two batteries and also is effective in reducing the amount you spend and allows me to play games a lot.
The only fault I would say is that sometimes the placement onto the dock can be a bit off but it takes taking it off then back on again to get it right.
Overall a really reliable product and would definitely recommend to others.
5.0 out of 5 stars No more batteries required, thank god
Great charger for controller,like the film,..no batteries required!!which is super,as they cost a fortune and I was 4eve buying them…not no more thanks to this little beauty, just plug in,USB,n charge,I’m a fa
5.0 out of 5 stars Great purchase
I’ve bought it for my son’s xbox controller and it is absolutely brilliant for charging the controller. My 11 year old is very happy with his charging dock. So overall it is a great purchase
5.0 out of 5 stars Does exactly what it says on the tin!
The charging unit is lightweight. The white batteries fit in my XBox One/Series X controllers. There is good indication on when the batteries are charged with the lighting system on the front. Great purchase.
4.0 out of 5 stars Nice little home for controller.
As someone who keeps putting controller everywhere, it’s nice to finally have a “home” for a controller to sit & its always charged to boot.
The battery pack was a little tight to install but it works with my series x controller no problem & I wish the dock had a little more weight to it as it moves around the TV stand with ease.
4.0 out of 5 stars Do what they are meant to
Quality seems fine & they charge the controllers fairly quickly. Do remember this item comes with new back battery covers & at first we thought they did not fit but soon realised hidden within the packaging they include 2 sets of back plates – obviously dependant on which xbox controller model you have.
Time will tell how long this item continues to work but does the job fine, well worth the purchase especially as they were reduced at great price.
4.0 out of 5 stars Works, but not the best quality.
I bought this a month or two ago for my two children who are certified xbox addicts. It charges relatively well, connecting via a USB connection to the back of the xbox. It would be good if this could be fed from a USB-C adapted mains socket (it’s USB-C at the back of the charging unit) as this could likely lead to faster charging.
The main downside I’ve seen is that the supplied covers don’t fit the original Xbox One controllers very well, whilst the Xbox One S fits fine. We’ve already gone through two covers as the little plastic tabs keep breaking off. Annoyingly, the controller doesn’t seem to want to charge on the dock without the cover in place.
All in all, not bad for the price, but could do with being a little more robust.
4.0 out of 5 stars Nice device
Easy to set up, works fine. You just need to insert the rechargeable battery into your controller, and fit the appropriate plastic cover (included). Then the controller sits nicely in the dock and charges. My only slight complaint is that once charged, the light stays green constantly (rather than switch off), but thankfully the light isn’t bright enough to be annoying.
One thing to note which I didn’t see anyone else mention, is the handy additional USB-A charge port on the back of the dock. This can ONLY be used to provide power for USB-A devices – you cannot connect the dock to your PC and then expect to use the additional USB-A port on the back for data transfer purposes (such as a USB stick). Useful though if you just want to charge your phone (or whatever else).
This charging dock is a great way to keep your Xbox controllers charged and ready to play. It looks good, it’s easy to use, and it comes with two rechargeable battery packs.
Pros:
Stylish design that matches the Xbox consoles
Rechargeable battery packs included
Charges two controllers at a time
Built-in LED display shows charging status
Extra USB output port for charging other devices
Affordable price
One-year warranty
Easy to set up
Great user experience
Cons:
A bit bulky
Battery packs can be a bit difficult to remove.
Overall, I think the pros of this product outweigh the cons. If you’re looking for a way to keep your Xbox controllers charged, I highly recommend the Xbox Series X/S Controller Charging Dock.
Overall rating: 4.5/5 stars
Would I recommend it? Yes, definitely!
Great, reliable product 👍
I highly rate the venom batteries & charging docks. Have purchased several over the years for my sons Xbox 360, One X & now his series X. All of which have worked flawlessly & help provide hours of uninterrupted gaming
Save on Batteries
Great charging pack for the XBOX X/S. If you want re-charge ability these are great and not too pricey. I just pop the controller back on the charger when I’m finished playing and have never had a problem with low or no battery.
Great gadge
Okay I bought 2 in the end as easier to have one playing other docked ready the plates for the xbox controller don’t connect properly so needs to be taped on but other than that works
Good piece of kit - save a fortune on batteries
The only thing I would say is the battery only lasts about 6 hours. Not a huge problem and think you can get high capacity batteries if you want to extend the battery time
Does what it's supposed to do.
Product arrived in time and we’ll packaged. Battery pack fits well, not overly tight the way others have been. Only reason I’m giving 4 stars and not 5 is because when you first place the Controller on the docking station it doesn’t connect to start charging. I have to.liftnitnon amd off a few times before it establishs a connection and charging light engages to indicate its beginning to charge. Other than that it works well and battery holds charge well.
Work perfectly
I have 2 of these now, they both work perfectly and don’t get hot. The battery charge lasts long enough for me, easily 4 hours+ on a full charge, then you just pop the controller back on the base unit for next time. And with the price you’re saving money on regular batteries after just a few weeks.
