 Bright Lights Indeed June 29, 2008
Yep, them there are some bright lights! Prety much lights up the entire corner of my entertainment center! But not so much in a horrible way, just in a way that you can definitely tell when they are charged up! Kind of like a night-light that you might have in your hallway or something.
Also, I have the rubber glove protectors on my controllers, and although they are a little snug, I can get them to fit in to the charger, no problem.
So overall, the adaptors are easy to put on, fit snuggly and securely, and are not obtrusive in any way. They charge up, and are good to go again! Not the most stylish product I've ever seen, but it works good! All in all, a great product!
 Best charging base available June 24, 2008
Only reason this charging base doesn't get a 5 is because the charging lights are too bright. If your watching a movie in a dark room, they are just too bright. Use some black paint or a marker to soften them down and you'll be all set.
Not bad at all June 13, 2008
I expected this thing to be crapy base on the picture, but it is actually a very good quality product. If you don't like the two big light bulb, simply take out the back cover, unscrew from the back and black tape the LEDs.
Great charger June 8, 2008
Very simple and straight forward. Just drop the controllers in and they charge. Can't get much simpler then that.
Only complaint (very minor) is the red/green LED charge lights are bright.
 Convenient, but annoying brightness May 30, 2008

This charging base works really well. No more searching for the USB cables when you need to charge, just drop the controllers in the base. You leave a charging attachment on the controllers all the time, which I thought might get annoying but it turns out the attachments are pretty small and out of the way of my hands so they don't bother me.
The main negative is that the charging indicator lights are large, stay on all the time and are *crazy bright* for indicators (think cheap flashlight bright). This became annoying very quickly to me, especially when watching a movie in low light. I hid the base slightly, behind the TV and this has helped some. The indicators are the reason I rated this 3 stars, so if you enjoy having two bright green alien eyes projected on your ceiling at night you could consider this a 4 star rating.
Two other minor negatives for me - this takes up yet another AC outlet rather than using USB via the PS3, and sometimes you have to wiggle the controllers a bit to get them to make contact with the base.
