    XBOX 360 charge kit

    My charge kit that i plug in via USB to my controller no longer charges the battery pack.

    I think I need a new battery pack since it might not be holding a charge. It slowly got worse and worse, now when I disconnect the cord it starts blinking right away.

    I was going to pick up the "Quick Charge Kit" on ebay which only comes with 1 battery pack. Does anyone else offer anything better for the price?

    Me and a buddy both went through a usb charge each, ive had a quick charge kit since then and havent had any problems since. Been at least 2 years and both my battery packs charge and last pretty long, my buddy has had one microsoft pack die on him but other then that its worked pretty good. I think I found mine on ebay new for pretty cheap.

    I can tell ya that yea, its the battery packs. Gone through a few of them myself.

    Personally, I've just been using the wire to connect them straight to the xbox... that way you don't need a battery pack. But my room is small enough that the wire isnt a problem.

    Yep, that's a problem. I sit 10-12 feet back. I need my wireless controller and no cords is a big plus .

    I'll pick up the quick charge pack.

    dude i had the same issue, thought the battery pack went to shit, but it didnt.

    its common for 360 battery packs to resist charging when they are drained too low. you have to keep playing plugged in, and keep re-attaching the cord until it works.

    Since that happened to mine i never let my batteries get too low

    Well I have been playing with it for a couple days and as soon as i disconnect it, it still starts blinking.

    Perhaps you are right, but my reasoning is this:

    Each time I charged it with the cord, it seemed like it slowly didn't last as long as before.

    It's too late anyways. I just spent 18 bucks on a quick charge kit with 2 battery packs, last night.
