I'm looking for a decent (white) colored Nintendo DS LITE charging cradle to make my NDS setup look pwetty.

I've found some that are compatible with the NDS, but I'm not sure if they work for the NDS Lite

Thanks. THe one you linked doesn't seem too bad. I wish it was all white instead of that goofy color, but for $11.84 shipped, not bad.

It's supposed to be out, but it still says "preorder"

I bought this one very cheap actually: link

It works very well and is the same color as the DS Lite white. It has a bright blue led when the ds is charging. Too bright actually. I opened it up and disabled the LED because I couldn't sleep with that light in my night-stand. Other than that, I love it

nunofgs, if possible, could you post some photos of the the charger, with and without the ds lite docked? the picture at that site isn't at a good angle, and doesn't really show what it looks like at all.

Does it come with another AC cable or do you have to use the one that came with the DSL?

PS: GREAT find BTW....

DAMN, I was all excited about getting that case plus a few other accessories from SuperUFO until I saw the shipping prices!

What's up with these Chinese companies and their ridiculously overinflated shipping costs?

Product Price: USD:21.81
Delivery Charge: USD:21.98
Total Price: USD:43.79

The shipping costs more than the items!

nunofgs,

Can we get some more pics of your setup?? What's that white thing in the background?

Heh... you mean my air conditioner remote?

About the shipping prices: if you order things that are under 1kg they will ship it for $6 or so on an air bubble envelope... so if you want to order lots of things, just don't order them all at once to get cheap shipping

lol @ air conditioner.


THANKS for the clarification on shipping prices!

Here's what I have so far:

Recharge Station for NDSL 4.20 (USD) 0.29kg 4.20 (USD) Remove
Airfoam Pocket for NDSL 3.35 (USD) 0.35kg 3.35 (USD) Remove
Silicon Sleeve for NDSL 5.03 (USD) 0.26kg 5.03 (USD) Remove
Crystal Sleeve for NDSL 4.20 (USD) 0.30kg 4.20 (USD) Remove
Rechargeable Battery Pack for NDSL 5.03 (USD) 0.27kg 5.03 (USD) Remove


I would love to eliminate 2 of the cases, but I'm not sure which one to remove.

Have you heard anything about the Airfoam, Silicon, or Crystal cases posted above?

There's the link to the Hori (?????) screen protector. I hope they get 'em back in stock soon!

No idea about the cases :/
Btw, I've looked around and that rechargeable battery seems to be the most powerfull I've encountered. On lik-sang and other sites the replacement battery is only for 1000mAh or 1200mAh. That one is 1600mAh. That's a huge boost from the DS lite built-in battery which is 1000mAh. I have yet to try it though.

Also, did you check the overstock page on superufo.com? It's kinda funny how you can get force-feedback USB gamepads for like $1.00

I think you made an error there.

I tried a cart with .94 kg items, but the delivery charges were $16.75 or something.

It has to be under .5kg to qualify for bubble wrap!

Also, I just tried bubble wrap option for under 0.5kg.

I got USD 8.47

8.47 + $4.20.


Their prices are definitely not hot because of their explosively high shipping costs, but decent if you order lots of items.

I might wait for the screen protector to come back in stock then order them all at once.

i bought one of those airfoam cases for about 700yen give or take. they are pretty sweet except it doesn't fit my stylus which i have to now carry in my pocket. darn.

but that dock looks pretty sweet i might have to grab one of those when i'm in town next time.
