Psyclone TouchCharge (PS3)

Does anyone have any experience with the Psyclone TouchCharge? I'm looking for a better charging option for my PS3 DualShock 3 controllers, and this one looked interesting. I also have a Wii, so I liked the idea that the base could charge both controllers (assuming I buy the necessary adapters).

I've done some searching online and in the forum, but I couldn't really find a lot of reviews (although I did find a lot of posts about people being afraid of the base unit). I haven't had any experience with Psyclone products in the past, so I was wondering about the effectiveness and the build-quality/construction.

Thanks in advance!

Holy crap, that thing is cool. That being said, I don't trust it.

Haha. I just wonder if it's always on or if it only turns on when it senses something is on it.

I can't really find it at a lot of online retailers, but the local BestBuy always has them. Very odd.

Ahh yes, induction charging. Every year there are a handful of CE companies that attempt to mass market this, and it never works. The OEMS make far too much off chargers (in the case of mobile phones) to ever embed the technology for these to become a big deal.

It's cool, none-the-less...
