    My controllers battery is draining noticeably fast

    Hi Curt, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

    Curt, the wear and tear of the charge of a battery is very rarely related to the device, in this case the controller, alkaline batteries can have variations due to the quality of the batteries, the temperature in which the device is used and even the vibration configuration of the controller. In the case of rechargeable batteries, the reality is that after a certain number of charge and discharge cycles, these batteries lose efficiency until they simply last minutes with a supposed full charge.

    Only if you notice that your controller is heating up in the battery area would it already be the indication of a problem with it.

    Considering that the controller seems to drain batteries fast anyway, I just went to the charge and play option. It's easier to plug the controller in rather then opening the compartment to install a new set of batteries when you are in the middle of
    a game.

    controller battery drain?

    I'm pretty sure the battery is only offered as a packaged deal. ( play and charge kit) You likely can find third party rechargeable battery packs by themselves,as well as with a charge cable for around 10-15 bucks. I myself prefer to stick with the official
    branded accessories though.

    controller battery drain?

    I am having a similar issue. The play and charge kit is only a month old but it won't hold a charge. When almost dead I connect it to the Xbox One via the cable, the light glows amber (charging), then come back the next morning. Unplug the cable, play for
    a short while and the batteries are dead again. Can't exchange the kit since it's past my return window. Can I buy just the battery pack somewhere?
