Xbox Rechargeable Battery Pack 4800mWh
Product description
A rechargeable battery pack for Xbox controllers is a practical upgrade if you want fewer charging interruptions and less reliance on disposable batteries. This Play and Charge kit is designed to let you keep gaming while the controller is charging, with an LED indicator to make it easy to see what is happening. It comes as a full kit with battery packs and USB-C charging cable support, so you can set it up for your Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, or compatible controller models.
The essentials
When gaming matters, the last thing you want is to stop mid-session to replace batteries. This rechargeable battery pack setup is built around a play and charge approach, so you can continue using your controller while it is connected to power 🔋. According to the product information, the battery pack is fully charged after under 4.5 hours, and it is rated for 8 to 12 hours of playtime depending on use. There are two battery packs included, which helps you rotate power during longer sessions or if you prefer keeping a spare ready.
It is also useful if you are trying to cut down on repeated purchases of disposable batteries. The kit is described as supporting up to 2000 cycles, which can make it a more consistent, longer term option for regular players 🎮. Another practical detail is the charging indicator, which shows charging status at a glance, removing guesswork from your routine.
For compatibility, the kit is described as working with all models of Xbox One controller and Xbox Series controllers. The package includes multiple battery covers, specifically 4 covers total, so you can fit the correct ones for the controller generation you use. You still need to ensure you match the covers to your controller model, since the packaging explicitly splits coverage across Xbox Series and Xbox One controllers.
Key features
The product information focuses on a charger battery pack that is designed for in-game charging, paired with rechargeable NiMH batteries and a USB-C cable. That combination is the core idea behind the kit, letting you keep playing without forced breaks to swap batteries. The kit uses 3600mWh NiMH batteries in the included packs, and it also lists a long 1.5m USB-C cable to give you a bit more room to sit comfortably. If your setup uses a controller on a couch or gaming desk, the cable length can be a genuine day to day convenience.
A second key advantage is safety and protection. The pack is described as including an intelligent protection chip with protections such as overcharging, over current, overheating, and short circuit protection. Having those safeguards matters because rechargeable systems are used repeatedly, and you want the charging process to stay controlled. The charging indicator also helps you understand status quickly, with a red light indicating charging and a red light being described as off when fully charged.
Worth noting, the LED indicator is based on the charging state, so you will still rely on the playtime rating for how long a session will last. Like any battery, real runtime can vary with controller activity and usage patterns, so treat the stated 8 to 12 hours as a guideline rather than a fixed promise.
One more practical inclusion is the set of battery covers. The kit is described as including 4 battery covers in the box, 2 for Xbox Series controllers and 2 for Xbox One controllers. That makes it easier if you have more than one controller or if you have both Xbox One and Xbox Series hardware in your home setup.

Who it’s for
It’s a good fit if you game regularly on Xbox and want a more convenient power routine than repeatedly buying disposable batteries. It suits you if you prefer a play and charge setup, so you can keep using your controller during charging rather than taking a break. It also makes sense if you have either Xbox One or Xbox Series controllers at home and want a kit that is described as compatible across those controller models.
It might not be a great match if your controller model requires a different battery cover than the ones included, since the kit specifies covers for Xbox Series and Xbox One controllers. You may also want to consider another option if you are looking for a battery pack with a specific capacity different from what is stated for this kit.
