Stay charged with Konnet PowerV Duo

The PowerV Duo is a new way to charge Wii remotes and other devices. It works the same way as the Powermat or the Duracell myGrid. All you have to do is lay your Wii remote in the charging bays and let them charge. You don't have to plug them into anything or take off the motion plus jacket or the silicone. If that's not enough the PowerV Duo also has two USB ports to charge anything with USB capability.

The PowerV Duo comes with two rechargeable Wii remote batteries, and comes in either black or white.
