Teknocreations InCharge For Wiimotes
Nintendo's Wiimote requires some charging every now and then, and Teknocreations is here to save the day with their InCharge battery pack and charge stand. The latter utilizes a set of lithium polymer batteries that are touted to be twice as light as other rechargeables despite having the endurance to last for hundreds of charges - that ought to be long enough for even the most hardcore Wiimote swinging gamer to develop biceps and triceps that will help them win Olympic gold in London in 2012. A full charge is able to offer up to 25 hours of gameplay, and the stand itself charges a couple of Wiimotes simultaneously. What's more interesting is the InCharge being able to juice up your Wiimote minus metal contacts, while the battery can even be charged via a silicone cover. Hopefully we won't see recalls in the future due to exploding chargers or batteries. Image courtesy of IGN.
