CarbonCore Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 You can still buy external rechargeable battery packs for DS4 if you want to go through that route. Cheaper than play n charge kit (because 3rd parties) and they double up with internal battery instead of completely replacing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shock on my dads face when he saw is still burned into my memory I think he went and returned it lol During xbox 360 days I bought Duracell 10-12 pack first, realised it was not going to last long. bought rechargeable batteries, was too much of a hassle rather than plug and play solution of ps3. Also, sometimes used to forget to charge the batteries or someone else in my house unplugged it to charge their own device. Bought the play and charge kit and it was shite and broke down in less than 6 months. Anyone saying MS is giving players a choice or is being consumer friendly is BS'er of the highest order because their own premium controller which comes for 200$ uses internal rechargeable battery.

Heaven Angel Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 4 AAA Rechargeable Battery + Controller or 2 Controllers + a charging station Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarbonCore Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 On Duracell it goes for like 30 hours (or a week of normal play). Beyond certain threshold you just stop noticing the charging routine. But on DS4 the routine is very much there, like your mobile phones.

I have been using eneloops pro 2550 MAH this entire generation. Each charge gives you between 20-25 hours atleast ,easily last you more than week if you game like 2-3 hours a day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont last you more than 8-10 hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0verlord Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Pacifier said: Curious.. So you always play with two batteries in pocket ready to go ? I got 4 AA eneloop pro batteries and a panasonic charger for total 2100. Their capacity is 5100 mAh which is way more then any PS controller. Original DS4 uses a 1000mAh battery. When battery is low, just swap the charged couple and put used ones to charging. Hardly takes 2 minutes - instant full charge. Used ones take 3-4 hours to fully charge. Full charged ones last 3-5 days. In my opinion, this is the least hassle/best performance/least cost setup for any wireless controller.

gamer_adi Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 I am sick of charging my ps4 controllers, if it gave at least 20 hours, it wouldn't have mattered, but 6-8 hours is a joke, esp. when playing a soulsborne game with it. Xbox solution sounds so much better to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggr happy ss Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) Everyone’s last for 5-6 hours ,except Ank’s 15 hours https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/playstation-4-controller-battery-saving-tips/%3Famp The PlayStation 4 is a brilliant system with an absolutely killer lineup of exclusive games. That means we’ve spent plenty of time with its wireless controller, the DualShock 4. Though we appreciate its large face buttons, terrific direction pad, and responsive, snappy triggers, the DualShock does not have fantastic battery life. Typically, the DualShock 4 lasts for four to eight hours of play per charge (typically on the lower end of that range), far less than the Xbox One controller or the Nintendo Switch Pro controller. Why does the DualShock 4 battery die so quickly? Simple — it’s equipped with a 1000mAh battery, which is substantially smaller than standard AA batteries used in the Xbox One gamepad. Unless you want to commit to a wired connection, you’re going to want to take some steps to squeeze extra life out of your PlayStation 4 controller. Luckily, we have some tricks to help you ensure that you’ll never have to wait to play again.

Walker Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 I have one real complaint about the Dualshock 4 - it's not f**king available I have two real complaints about the Xbox controller - Why you so awesome and why you don't work on a PS4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sony gave an option to dim the light Its not really the light because I turn it off completely on PC and it still lasts the same. The reason for battery drain is DS4 pings at much higher rate than both Xbox and Switch Pro. This makes the controller most responsive wireless controller of all, but fks up the battery.

He used to make idiot of people by charging black on ps3 games. Worst person to take your info from as he isnt even a small fish there. The first guy in shop 2 is legit.
