Does it extend the battery life of the controller?

The charge base doesn't, however Nyko makes a battery pack that is compatible with this base that does and it works very well. The wonderful thing about the charge base is you don't have to fight with the micro USB plug to recharge your controller. You plug the dongle in and it's the last time you have to deal with that stupid plug.

Yes, it's been a good controller for the month I've had it. Bulk, Boost, Float, and Equlize depending on the battery type you select. http://www.epsolarpv.com/en/uploads/news/201206/1338535105981473.pdf

It does extend. And with certain controllers like Vera you can control individual outlets.

Yeah pretty much, and that's how I ran my Xbox 360 controllers, but I do recommend this, because changing out the batteries and charging them is annoying, this is a much better solution in my honest opinion.

No. I do virtually nothing more with this controller than I do with the wired Tekonsha in our other car. I check the connection, verify lights, test the brakes, and roll out. We even leave the controller plugged in all the time.

I can only tell you that I have had this going for about a year and a half now and have had no problems. I use it to power my barn lights. They are not on often though. I have tested the battery morning and evening and it always has a full charge. Overall I'm happy with this controller.

You don't have to buy batteries for the controller, it's really convinient to have this and charge the controller during downtime.

it is not required for any game. however it is really comfortable, and really light. The battery also lasts about 80 hours between recharges. it really is a great controller, but i usually use the Gamepad.

this controller doesn't care if it is 12 or 24 volts,, not very many watts though,, it will take a while to much charge in that battery

That is dependent mostly on the game, not the charger. However, the batteries that come with this unit seem to be no better or worse than just using any other good rechargables in the controller.I've found it will last an average amount of time, and the recharge time is fairly quick. If you're gaming alone and have two controllers (As I do), you'll probably find you'll rarely have to stop in the middle of a game, put the dead controller in this cradle, and then pick up the freshly charged one.This charging stand is great, I'd recommend it to anyone.

From my experience the battery does not last longer than 5 hours but it's a not a big deal for me because I don't play all day. You can buy 2 gamepads and always keep one charging if you wanna play all day.

I'm not sure, but a controller only costs 10 bucks, and can save you from burning out your battery and your solar panel if something does go wrong

Yes it does. I never let the battery die though. I can go three days before charging it again and it does still has battery life. It charges well if your not on it while charging. But I play games while it's charging so it's slower charging. Hope this help.

Yes it does but they have an automatic timer on how long it can go unused like sitting it to the side to go to the bathroom or the kitchen for something it shuts the controller off but this is good because the battery time is amazing if you charge it right like I have but yes sixaxis is supported you bought a great controller

Barely!! If you pull the wrist strap under the controller as if it were a tail coming from the front, it works just fine :)

The controller does not goes of to sleep unless you switch it off.The remote is always up and using the battery. But it still has been running for me for over 3 months.

Yes. It basically turns your controller into a wired controller without the battery pack. But you can also put in the rechargeable battery pack and charge it to play wirelessly.
