Can a silicone skin be used on the controller while charging. I have a Nyko but the skin holds it off unless I force it in

This charger is actually pretty forgiving in the placement of the controller. However, it depends on a special battery and cover to make contact with the base. If the skin covers parts of the middle-back part of the controller, or over the battery case, then no it probably won't work unless you do some custom modification to the skin.

I actually didn't use my Vita often. Maybe a couple days a month. That being said, its hard for me to tell if it was holding its charge, but it didn't seem like it did after the first 4 or 5 charges. I felt like the Vita had the charge and not the grips. I also had issues with getting it to charge at times and eventually the piece you plug the charger into came loose making that unusable. So its now just an overpriced grip that cannot be charged while playing. The grips themselves are great (if you don't need the trigger, the charge and battery part of it, not so much.

You sure will not need to remove the cases to charge the controllers. Enjoy :)

Yes the base is necessary and that's where you can charge the battery. The Nyko battery is attached to a cover replacing the 3DS bottom cover and i haven't tried it you but i don't think you can charge the Nyko battery without the base.

I can use mine while charging. The charge time varies depending on whether you are using it or not. It should be the same as your original charger.

I Like The Nyko Charging Base Kit With The 2 Batteries, Never Had A Problem With My Nyko Charging Base For My Xbox 360, Just Bought The Xbox One For My Son 4 Christmas Along With This Charging Base. Go For It. I Recommend The Charging Base Better

The charger stops charging once it has a full charge. It has 2 color to let you know what it is doing: orange means it is charging and blue means it is full. I leave my controllers plugged in for days on end and I haven't had any problems with controllers not being charged when removed for the charger. I know constant charging can and will shorten the life of a battery and I have seen no signs of that.

Funny this came up. The Classic Controller broke about 5 days ago. A wire broke down next to the connector which is plugged into the regular controller. Just threw it in the trash. I think we had it about 3 or 4 months.

No, the charger has an automatic shutoff so it won't keep charging. It's designed to hold the controllers until you are ready to use.

No, you have to take it off before put in Energizer charging station. The Uboost changes the dimension of the gamepad...

I'm no scientist but if the device knows when the controllers are charged, why wouldnt it stop charging them? thats generally how chargers work.

I am interested to know the answer to this as well. I have a skinit on mine and it works perfect with the charger but I would expect it to.

For my Wii motionplus remotes it does not because the silicone covers goes over the metal conection points (that charge the device) as for the game pad thats what I would look at..... does the silicone case cover those connection points (on the bottom of the pad) My WiiU came with a charger for the pad.... so if yours did as well and it charges with the case on then I would say it will work. It seems that the pad would fit on the charger with a case but I dont use a case on mine.

Embedded in the charger where the controller sits is the port that inserts into the controller hopefully that answers your question.
