5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product   January 8, 2009
This rechargable pack is great, with 5 people using the balance board we would really run through the batteries, great product.


1 out of 5 stars Do Not Buy This!!!!!!   January 8, 2009
This product shorts out the balance board sensors upon first use. It happened to two of our boards in a row. First we thought it was an issue with the board, sent it back to Nintendo and bought a new one just to have a second for the two games that say you can use more than one. so as we waited for our other to be returned from Nintendo Repairs, we hooked this one up and guess what... it had the same problem. Reading up on the issue, we are not the only ones with this problem and Nintendo themselves recommend you DO NOT USE IT with their board. So for your own sanity (and $45 saved if you are past your 3 month warranty with the WII Fit Board) do not even take the chance by using this product. You'll be thankful, believe me.


1 out of 5 stars Never worked once   January 4, 2009

4 out of 5 stars does the job   December 20, 2008

I've used this for about 3 weeks now and haven't had any problems. Yes the USB connection is short - the solution is to buy a 10-foot USB cord for $5 (available on Amazon). That gives me more than enough slack to operate the Wii board while still attached to the Wii. I never disconnect it so it's always charged. Not a wireless solution, but it works for me.
