Hacking Good charger/rechargable batteries for the Wii?

[Nikolay]

A few months ago, I bought a cheap $10 Wii Controller charger on ebay; it's a piece of crap. Now that Donkey Kong Country Returns is right around the corner, it's time to dust the good ole' Wii.

So.. I'm asking, what are some good rechargeable batteries that work with the Wii?

I've been using the energizer rechargeable AA's for years without problems. 20$ for 4 with the charger.

We have either Duracell or Energizer rechargeable AA batteries, I don't know which, but they're green. They last about 15 hours on a full charge.

Has anyone personally tried the eneloop batteries?

I didn't but it will probably last somewhere between 8 to 12 hours . Any regular rechargeable AA battery will work fine just stay away from wiimote battery packs and you wont have any troubles.

Mine last about 8-10 hours. I play the wii when i get home(at 2) and play till 12 XD

I don't see any reason you would get a wii battery pack over rechargeable batteries. If your battery dies you have to stop playing and wait for it to recharge it. You can't use it with anything else, and it's more expensive.
