Buy rechargeables.
That is cool. But why not just buy rechargable batteries.
Yes, why not i got one and its way better than getting new batteries every week...I think you should get it.Why this is....1.)because its dirt cheap.2.)rechargable batteries cost more because you have to buy the powerpoint charger thing with it.3.)mine takes about 2 hours to charge.4.) It beats buying batteries that end upadding upto a fortune.5.) You can charge it half way through a game by going to the home button and putting it on the charger then returning later and continue playing.
I don't always trust random third parties making things for the consoles; they never seem to work right (ie: Datel's WiFi dongle and the 3rd party memory cards I used to buy for GC and PS1).Just my opinion.
[QUOTE=''guestgamer'']3.)mine takes about 2 hours to charge.[/QUOTE]You can get quality rechargeables that only take 15 minutes to charge. And you can always keep a spare pair charged so that you never have to wait if your batteries die.
I say buy rechargebles. That is what I did when I got the Wii last year. I bought the Energizer 2500 mAh NiMH batteries with the charger and it works great. I payed like 20 for it and got 4 2500 nAh batteries and the wall charger and I shed out another 10 for 8 more of the 2500 nAh batteries. So now I always have batteries for the Wii :-). Plus the batteries give you atleast 30 hours of playing time.This is the one I got http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4291460 I like it because when you are not using it, it fits nicely in the side pocket of my Wii Messenger bag.
I bought a bunch of rechargable batteries, they work pretty good, but I like regular batteries better. I've found thatmy NiMH batteries lose their charge over time,and there's not much point of having a little drawer full of charged batteries if they've all lost their charge. You can get twenty AA batteries for $8. It's a tradeoff, regular batteries work better, but rechargable batteries save you money.

I have a bunch of NiMH batteries, Energizer and Duracell. I put them in my 15 minute charger, then I put them in a Wii remote, and I only get 3 bars. I put a pair of alkaline batteries in a Wii remote and I get 4 bars. I was puzzled by this at first, then I looked closer at my rechargablebatteries and noticed thatthey don't put out the same voltage as an alkaline battery, 1.25V instead of 1.5V. A set of alkaline batteries lasts much longer in the Wii remote than a pair ofrechargables batteries.
Energizer rechargeables are the way to go. Thats what I use and I only recharge maybe once every 2 to 3 weeks. I have two sets I just swap back and forth.
That's what my original plan was, but about half the time, I go to put in a set of batteries that I previouslycharged, and they don't have any charge left, so I have to throw them back in the charger. After I try two or three sets of dead rechargable batteries, I just put a set of alkalines in because I know they'll have a full charge. I probably don't play as much Wii as a lot of people, so my charged batteries can sit in the 'good' bin for a long time.
You're better off with re-chargeable battereis. When they run out of charge, just pop them in the charger, take a 15 minute Wii-Break, and you're good to go. Plus they're easy to replace, I'm sure you would have to buy that unit again if the battery loses it's charge over time.
OK ill get normal charge batteries is this a good brand [url=http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5640637]link[/url]
Always go rechargeable.

Do not get lower then 2500, people are going to tell you it's not a big deal and they're wrong and want you to waste your money. Energizer also makes a 15 min charger (as said above) if you choose to go that way.
