I'm tired of replacing batteries. Which charging station do you use/recommend?

The only one I've ever seen is the one I have, by Nyko. I think it was $25 at Target or Gamestop. Its pretty handy to have, batteries seem to last quite awhile (I only play about 5-6 hours a week) and it takes a couple hours to fully charge.

Oh... people will come Mr. Pollard. People will most definitely come.
No, I don't live in Seattle anymore, I'm back in Des Moines but I don't feel like changing my username.

I use standard rechargeable batteries. It was working out well until I decided to put those rubber skin things on. Those are a pain in the @$& to get off.

Ditto for me also, I have the nyko packs. Works pretty well actually. Good investment for $25.

There are not many crowds or places in the country that have a better impact on the game than at Iowa State. The Cyclone fans are truly a sixth man. The place is so loud and always a fantastic crowd." - Former Kansas and current North Carolina head coach Roy Williams

One thing I read in the Amazon reviews is that with the battery cover that the charging station requires installed the remote won't fit in things like the steering wheel and zapper. Is this true? Is it true for the Guitar Hero controller?

It's no big deal, it's not like the battery is going anywhere. I imagine the same will be true with the wheel.
