Hi all,
I currently have a "Joytech Power Station" which can charge up to 2 Wiimotes (I only have 2 anyway) using a cradle that connects into the Wii's power lead. This is now beginning to play up and refusing to charge the Wiimotes (maybe you're not supposed to the Wiimotes in the charging unit all the time - which is what I am currently doing).
Anyways, I am now looking for recommendations for a new, reliable, charger. It only needs to be able to charge 2 Wiimotes at a time. All the ones I see on eBay get their power from one of the Wii's USB ports (but since an HDD uses one of mine and a hub - connected to a mic and LAN adaptor - uses the other, I am hoping I just plug it into the hub. They all state the Wii needs to be on in order to charge the Wiimote but would I right in saying that provided the Wii is in standby mode (orange light) then the USB ports are powered ? Certainly the power light on my HDD stays on when the Wii is in standby ?
So, does anyone have any recommendations for a Wiimote charging station ?
TIA for any help.
Regards,
Adam Brunt
