360 controller battery

[ChrisF]

Well, seems like the (launch) battery in my wireless controller has finally given up the ghost. I think the chatpad was the final few nails in it's coffin.

Does anyone know where the cheapest place to get a new one is? In white... Seems to be £9.99+delivery everywhere

Would rather stick to an official pack than any gameware/hong kong ones.

Tell you what, I just found this on Amazon while searching for one:

Surely not the very same Kernow?

If you're not in a desperate rush Play-Asia have them for just over 7 quid delivered:

Chris last week GAME were doing their own brand instore for £9.99 (comes with the charging lead also) - I've used theirs for many months and no problems.

Both of mine seem to have given up at the same time which is a bit odd, i wonder whether it's the controllers themselves. Still, i'm going to order a play and charge kit, dvd.co.uk have them at £9.99 each, i presume it's the official one although it doesn't say on the listing ?

Funny these must have around a 2 year life-span as mine has just given up as well, and my gaming life has become cabled again. Think I'll get me a quick charge kit ?17.99 with a battery includded http://www.play.com/Games/Xbox360/4-...t/Product.html
