This is a must have with your 360 and a controller. And in black to match your Elite controllers.
You can plug it in via USB to your Xbox 360 and charge the included battery pack while you play your game.
You can also remove your battery pack, and plug the cable directly to your 360 for wired gaming (so your controller won't shut off while you are in the middle of that hired driver Forza race.
This charges via any USB port on your 360, your computer, your cable box, or your dog (if he has included USB hub).
I recommend buying one of these, then buying the Quick Charge Kit. Then you'll have 2 battery packs, the quick charge dock, and a USB charge cable.
priced reasonably, flawless, black September 9, 2007

works. the battery lasts forever. charger recharges. price is right. half the price of the quick charge kit, only a few dollars more than 1 battery. includes a battery and allows you to play in case the battery runs dead.

I recently got the Xbox 360 elite, and knowing that I was going to be spending hours on it, I knew that some battery power was a necessity. I saw this, that comes with a battery and a cable - and at the price, I really couldn't say no. I was already going to get some rechargeable batteries for my controllers, and the fact that this is just a few more dollars with a battery, its definitely a good idea.
It does take a while to charge, though, and that's obviously because you are using the battery power while it is trying to replace it, but thats not a huge issue unless your gaming spot is usually not readily accessible with a cord attached to your controller. I like my wireless gaming area, so I decided to also buy the Quick Charge kit for 29.99, which also includes a battery. This way, I've got 2 batteries, one in the charger and one in the controller, and have the Play & Charge cord ready if I have a friend come over to play some Halo 3 or something with me and one of us starts to get drained on battery power. Good investment!

The xbox 360 has been out long enough for us to know that a charge and play kit is the best way to go to avoid spendling endless amounts of money on batteries. With the new Xbox 360 Halo 3 Controllers and the Xbox 360 Elite out on the market, it was a good idea to sell matching Black Charge and Play kits, since I am rather particular that everything matches, otherwise, ifyou don't care you can still use the white charge kit on the black controller and stillhave it work the same.
Excellent Purchase!!!

This charger kit is nearly essential. Regular AA batteries will last longer but replacement can become expensive, and ruin your game if they die in the middle of it, especially if you're playing online. The cord is long enough for most living rooms, and you can play and recharge the controller your using at the same time. This kit does recharge your controller when the Xbox is turned off, but you have to go into your settings menu on the Xbox, under the downloads section and turn on the option to finish downloading content even when the machine is turned off. For some reason this option also governs controller charging.
