    console on or off to charge play and charge kit battery?


    ok..so I just got a play and charge kit for my birthday, and nowhere in the manual(folded pamplet) does it say if I need to have the system on or off during charging.

    so, do I need to have the system turned on during charging or not?

    :)

    strange things are a foot

    @RagMan85 Do you keep you controller connected to the console via play n' charge kit. It may stay on to charge the controller. This is what happens to me, but I disconnect the play n' charge kit before it turns off so it wont do this.

    The kit will not charge the battery while the console is turned off. You'll need to have it on while you're playing to charge the battery.

    It's been a long time since I had a play and charge kit but if I remember the instructions properly you may be looking at 4-6 hours for the initial charge.

    well..the light's green...I'm going to assume that means its charged, though it wasnt a full 4 hours. might just need to run the battery down fully to get it to accept a full charge per the manual?

    Well here's what I'm doing. I don't suspect I'll need a 2nd controller for a while, so I simply reserved, payed off the Play and Charge kit by itself, which does come with the battery pack. Again, as others have stated too,
    there's the controller bundle, which you get the play and Charge Kit, battery pack, and of course the controller. Rather than the console itself doesn't come with the Play and Charge Kit or the battery pack rather than AA alkaline batteries. (If you recall
    this is how it was with XBox 360 Play and Charge kit as well; a battery pack came standard with the charge cable because there'd be no use for the cable othe.rwise as it simply doesn't charge alkaline batteries.)
