 Switch Does NOT Control Fan Feb 25, 2008
By T. Carey
"Tom35"
Just to remark on another review, the on/off switch does not control the fan. The fan stays on whenever the unit is plugged in. The switch only controls the blue light.
I have made an adjustment in my charging center to get the switch to control both the light and the fan.
In order to do this you must:
1) Remove the sticky feet and the 4 screws underneath them
2) Remove the circuit board (2 screws) that the fan wires goto.
3) Unsolder the fans black wire (+) from the bottom of the curcuit board
4) Solder the fans black wire to the on off switch where the red wires from the blue light are already soldered.
5) re-screw the circuit board
6) rescrew the 4 screws under the feet
7) Put back on the sticky feet.
Now the on/off switch will control both the fan and the blue light.
I rated this an overall rating of 3 because this is a stupid design and the on/off switch should have controlled both without me having to modify it.
Doing this modification was simple.
I am not a great solderer so was worried at first, but when I took it apart I saw how easy it would be.
The modification took less then 10 minutes and could be done easily by anyone.
If this modification was done by the factory, I would have given this unit a 5 star review, but since I had to mod it, I am giving it a 3.

 Wii dual charger with fan Mar 07, 2008
By Spindler
I purchased this thinking it would be good since it does not require an additional power cord and has the two charger docks and batteries. When I received it I found that the on/off switch does not control the fan just the light and the base charging units. I also have some issues with the charging docks. They are too deep for the remotes. The wrist strap gets in the way when you insert them and I have problems with the remotes making contact to charge. I read the other reviews and sure, if I take the wrist straps off the remotes would fit better but I have two young children that are not going to take the time to do that. If the on/off switch controlled the fan as well and the docking stations were not as deep it would be a great charging station for the Wii. Over all I am keeping it but I am going to follow the other review on modifying it to have the on/off switch control the fan. If the remotes making contact to charge becomes too much of an issue I will purchase a different type of unit. Until this item is modified by the manufacturer I would not recommend it unless you need to save the money and have the time to fool with it. It is a great design idea I just think it needs a few modifications.

 The People Have Spoken and Intec has Listened Jun 27, 2009
By E. Gordon
"Brooklyn's #1 mother"
When buying this product I was pretty skeptical due to all the bad reviews but when it arrived I was in for a delight. The company was probably reading the reviews online and I guess they came out with a version 2.0. The light switch now controls the fan and that is a big help because now you don't have to go in and play operation and try to solder this and that like Mr. and Mrs.D.I.Y. I want to thank everybody for your reviews and keep doing what you do because your voice will be heard. Also anyone thinking about buying this product you should it keeps you Wii cool to prevent overheating and damage and the rechargeable batteries for the Wii remotes are great!

 Bad for Wii Feb 09, 2009
By Jonathan E. Eckstein
I've only had my Wii for 6 weeks. The AC Adapter charger for the Wii got fried from this product. This product uses a spliter to share power with the Wii. I had to send my Wii and wait 2 weeks for the return with a new charger. They told me not to use this charge station.

This is the Wii Charge Station to get! Jan 15, 2008
By Mark Skuba
I have been looking through all the reviews on charge stations, but none appealed to me more than this one (without no reviews nonetheless). Comes with 2 Battery packs that is pretty much the steal right there! Everything works perfectly out of the package. Easy to hook up. Switch to turn fan on/off (along with blue LED). Wiimote slips right in the charger and make sure you move the strap out of the way to get the full charge. You must charge this for 12 hours before using!!! That is very important and also says so in the manual. Red LED indicates charge and Blue LED indicates charge completion. I hope this has been enough information to influence you to buy this GREAT Wii accessory.
