Great item, some bad reviews are unfounded and inaccurate
This item works a treat, I've read the other bad reviews and would like to clarify some points.

1) The 2nd charger does work properly
2) The charger does work on the Wii standby mode. Just switch the Wii on, then put it into standby and the charger stays on. It works when the USB power supply from the Wii is powered up.
3) Battery life depends on what batteries you buy for it. If you buy bad batteries, don't blame the charger.

The unit looks fantastic with its blue glow and neatly stores the Wii as well as the remotes. Nice and tidy.

The only reason it loses a star is because even with the latest AAA rechargeable batteries you can't play this all evening without needing to put the chargers back in the base. AA batteries would be a better option but the design would not allow this.

Remeber to get some AAA rechargeable batteries when you buy the item, and try to get 1000maH or more.

Great dock
This stand is great it keeps my remotes safely stored and the blue light looks cool, only problem is that i have to leave the wii switched on for the remotes to be charged. If anyone knows a way around this please let me know.

Idiots should read the manual
works fine in standby. wii has to be internet connected for this amber mode i believe. not to difficult for anyone with a wireless internet connection at home.

ive read people saying the rear charge slot doesnt work. they are idiots. there is a switch on the back of the wii that selects between the rear charger slot and the rear battery compartment. only one of the 2 rear chargers will work at once.

Beware - only works if the console is turned on
A word of warning for anyone about to buy one of these. The remote charging stand does work, it draws power from one of the USB ports on the console. However, it will only work when the Wii is switched on. This means you have to leave the console powered up for several hours while your remotes recharge.

Apparently there is a standby mode which will allow you to charge the remotes while the Wii is in standby, but for some reason the console cannot be put into this mode unless it is connected to the internet. If, like me, your console is not online, there are only two options, on or off.

DANGER DO NOT BUY!!!
Read the title and weep my wii loving friends as this is the ultimate anti-wiimote technology! In a nutshell it 'kills' your wiimotes, firstly it dims the blue lights that are meant to represent your player no. then messes with your on-screen cursor till it just blinks out! I had 2 perfectly normal wiimotes each costing £30 and now both are 'dead'. Think about it that's £60 down the drain! DO NOT BUY!
