My xbox controller went through batteries ridiculously fast. I had to replace the batteries every few days. I just got a charger yesterday. I'm just curious has anyone else had this problem?

I use the charge and play kit battery in my main controller and rechargeable batteries in my limited edition titanfall controller that my girlfriend uses. I usually get about 2-3 days of play before I have to plug in, no biggie. Also the plug in for it is compatable with my phone, and tablet so...... Micro USB ftw

Edited by Wobbly Wombat: 1/14/2015 12:18:58 AMThe Xbox one controller is power hungry. Use Duracell 2200 mAh rechargeables. You will get about 25 hrs between charges.

Vibration and mics that plug straight into the controller kill the battery fast.
-
I use rechargables. Because cheapness.
-
YES! The struggle is real when it comes to looking for batteries. My batteries die within two days.
-
Turning off the vibration will help as well
-
Mine lasts for a vary long time. (Compared to my 360 controller). The headset can drain the batteries fast though.
-
Vibration burns the battery so if you play a game with a lot of vibration that happens most games you can turn it off though
-
Lol dont use it 24/7
-
No, because I bought a play and charge pack.
-
Rechargeables.
-
I've been using rechargeable AA batteries since I bought mine. That's the best way to go.

-
I play on my Xbox One every few hours a day, sometimes leaving it on whilst I do something else, and yet I haven't had the need to change the batteries for a while now. It all depends on the brand you're using and how many hours a day you game.
-
Rechargeable batteries, it's the only way to go if you're using batteries. Bigger upfront cost, and they do die a little quicker, but keep a set in the charger at all times you're good.

Mine lasted nearly a week of intense gaming. I'm talking several hours a day. But you should probably get a different brand of battery. Also, how long do you game during the week?
