I am not sure if this has been covered before (I couldn't find it if it has), but how does everyone keep their wii remotes charged.  Do you use regular batteries, rechargable batteries, or some charging station (what brand)?  Any suggestions?

I just use rechargable batteries, it was energizer with 4 rechargable AAs and it also charges AAA's if you buy them (but they dont come with the charger) I think it was less than 12 bucks and its been lasting me since December of last year.

I bought a charge station for 29.99 from Walmart. It is by Nyko and works great. Even after my 8+ hours of Galaxy playing they still had charge.

I have a case of AA's I got from Grainger and just switch them out when they die, down to about 235 batteries now!

I just use normal batteries. I get a long time out of them, so it hasn't been any kind of issue at all. I'm on several months from one pack of 8 AAs.

I play mainly pick-up-and play, so about 30 minutes or so a day. Today though I'm going to have an RE4 marathon session.
