Just got one of these along with the official play and charge kit. I have wo controllers so I thought hey, why not try both of them out.

|Firstly, the Datel claims to be able to do 5 more hours than the official, havent tested this yet but sounds good.

The cable that comes with the datel is almost identical to the one that comes with the official, its just white instead of grey.

They actual battery is identical apart from the stickers but it fits on the pad exactly the same.

So my advice at the moment, save yourself a few quid and go with the datel.

Expect a full review with pictures soon.

Cheers Joe, havent heard to many good things about the official but if I do end up getting one I shall lean towards the Datel one(Y)

I'd say play and charge kits are a better route to go down than rechargeables... it's just more convenient. I leave the play and charge cable always plugged in to the 360, but not to the pad. So if i then start getting low i can just whack the lil thingmabob in the top of the pad and away i go... its just a lazy thing really :P.

'Datel claims to be able to do 5 more hours'

Does it live up to the claim?
