    Controller Question


    There may be a very simple answer to this... So here goes..

    Say I have 2 controllers with rechargeable batts and the one controller I'm using the battery goes flat, is it possible to drop the flat one and pick up the charged controller and carry on playing with that one without switching the batteries?

    I ask because I currently use the venom rechargeable batteries which are very difficult to remove and the charge cable is super short.

    thanks.

    :)

    Controller Question

    With my current 360 set up I have all my AV equipment in a separate room from the TV. The 360 controllers work well through the wall. Do the new ones work in the same way?

    Controller question

    While the chances of damage occurring from such a low voltage going through the USB cable I wouldn't recommend it. Non-rechargeable batteries can heat up and leak if put in a situation where power is being applied to them.

    Ideally you'd be able to find some other batteries until your play and charge kit arrives just to be on the safe side.

    Controller Question

    If you have Kinect hooked up and you want to switch controllers, you should be able to just turn off the controller you want to recharge, then turn on and pick up the new controller. Kinect should automatically associate this controller with you.

    If not, you'd have to sign out of your profile on the controller you're going to recharge, turn it off, then turn on the second controller and sign in using that one. Others say that you have to turn the console off, then turn it back on with the controller
    you're going to switch to.

    You'll need the adapter with the original if you want wireless.

    Controller question

    Hi there

    i am wanting to customize my xbox controller on this

    website
    If by "this website" you mean the
    Xbox Design Lab
    then yes. The customized controllers you order via the Design Lab website are all wireless, and can be transformed for latency free wired gameplay by connecting them with a Micro USB cord to the console.
